Renr0ck

We have often heard it said that
it takes a funeral to get some people
on the inside of church. We don't
like the idea. 1t sounds too much
like the story of the western from
ttier town that had everything ex-
cept graveyard, so they killed a
man in order to start one. It is evil
dent that anything of milder ma
ture that would induce people to
church would be considered a sue
cess. Well that's what the Rally
Day service did here Sunday night,
and add to this a liberal collection
and you have quite success. Much
credit is due the committee for put
ting on an interesting dialogue of
which the object was to show the ad-
vantages of the church's school of
methods which precedes the annual
conference. The mems quartet fur

OUR EYES

The eyes of newly born babe
are very plastic. The babe lies or
/ its back much of the time, which
causes the eyes to fatten from front
to back by their own weight. This
too short eye ball is called a far
sighted eye. Then the weight of
the lids pressing heavier on the up
per and lower sides of the front OF
the eye ball, may cause this front
portion (the cornea) to take the
shape of the side of an egg. The
long way of the egg is horizontal
and the shortest radius of curvature
perpendicular. This is called astig-
matism with the rules or the kind
nearly always found. This more
pupil Of the eye than the opposite,
is true or real astigmatism and is
correctly measured by an instru-
ment for measuring the curvature of
the outside surface of the cornea or
pupil. Corneal astigmatism seldom
changes after six years of age, which
proves the error of a general prac-
tice of fitting astigmatism by sub
jective tests. The fact that six year
olds are scarcely ever found with
astigmatism of the crystalline lens
of the eye Il never saw one), should
tell any one that lenticular astig-
matism is caused by muscle cramp
and should not be allowed to exist
Fit it and it will always exist in ever
changing amounts. Relax the cramp
and the lenticular will disappear
leaving only the unchanging corneal
to be fitted. Every young eye with
error becomes cramped just as sure
ly as your hand will become cramp-
ed if held closed. Try writing with
a pen every minute of the time fif-
teen hours day the year round.
and you have the same condition of
the hand that eyes with errors must
have. Treatment glasses that fog
vision at first is the only way to re-
lax or draw out muscle cramp of the
eyes.
This cannot be done while attend
| ing school any more than you can
get over writer's cramp while writ
, ing We wonder who taught people
in general to think they can have
their children's eyes correctly fitted
| for school just like they get their
school shoes on the day before
school begins. Eyes must be worked
out when idle in vacation time
Muscle cramp in eyes. Is greater
menace to health than crooked
body. This is why we refuse to fit a
lot of folks, with the "candy medi-
cine" brand of spex. Otherwise we
would feel like your doctor would if
he allowed you to stay an invalid all
your life rather than force you to
take bitter pill.
