POOR SIGHT AS CAUSE OF
WASTE

GO MUCH has been said about de-
- fects of vision among school chill
dren that many persons have gotten
the idea that it is only in school life
that poor sight is of any Importance
and that after the child has passed
the school age no further attention
needs to be paid to his eyes. This is
a serious mistake Attention was first
drawn to the vision of school children
on account Of the absurdity of spend
ing money for schoolhouses, books
and teachers and then sending chill
dren to. school whose sight was so
poor that they couldn't see well
enough to learn anything.
But poor vision is not confined to
the schoolroom by any means. 1t is
almost as common among workers as
it is among school children and as an
adults time and labor is of far more
value than those of child, it is the
cause Of much greater loss.
Like many other OF our wasteful
habits, 1t was not suspected until it
was looked for. A recent survey OF
the eyes of employees made by the
Eyesight Conservation Council Of
America shows how common are de-
fects of vision among industrial work
ers of all classes
Information furnished by ITO COM
panies in % states and employing
over 100000 persons, says the re-
port, shows that the average amount
of defective sight amounted to 443
per cent.
This means that nearly half of the
employees of these companies had
some form or amount of defective eye
sight. But defective vision is a reIa-
| tive matter. It's effect on ones work
depends largely on the nature of the
work. A man might not have good
enough eyes to do steel engraving.
watch repairing or wood carving and
yet be thoroughly fitted for forms OF
work which only require good or fair
general vision.
But even making all allowances for
the different degrees of vision re-
quired for different kinds of work,
any large amount of defect of sight
must mean slower work. loss of time
and spoiled material
If every one knew exactly what was
his degree Of vision and would select
a form Of work for which his eyes fit
ted him, there would be comparatively
little trouble. But many people have
defects in vision of which they are
entirely unconscious. Not knowing
that their eyes are poor. they make
mistakes which they attribute to other
causes.
If your work troubles you. have
your eyes examined and see If they
are all right.

Man of Genius Made
COMPANIONS of Do IS

In Memories and Notes Of Persons
and Places" Sir Sidney Colvln gives
an intimate glimpse of George Mere
diths conversation with his dogs.
1.-THE most characteristic strain in
his ordinary manner was this blend of
the most scrupulous courtesy with the
frankest raillery, both somewhat elab-
crate Of their kind He would take and
keep the same tone with servants. He
would even take it with his pet dogs.
l have noticed that the dogs of men
of genius love them more passionately
and devotedly than they love ordinary
masters, l suppose feeling in them
some extra glow and intensity OF the
emotional faculties calling for a re-
Spouse In kind. To the succession or
black and tan or pure tan dachshunds
given to Meredith by various friends,
Koby and Bruny and Pete flor 'Ko-
bold, Bruno PetoO, and Islet. on
whom he wrote his well known elegy-
to these 1t was a delight to hear him
talking eagerly by the half hour to-
gether in terms now Of caressing en-
dearment, now Of irony, or sometimes,
when the poaching instinct had proved
too strong in any of them, Of panied
parental reproof."
And in the same chapter Colvin
quotes Sir James Barrie's account of
Meredith, written after the latter's
death: HE came swinging down the
path, singing Justify, and calling to his
dogs, his dogs Of the present and the
past; and they yelped with JOY, for
they knew they were once again to
breast the hill with him."

II you will watch the sky on spring

the daughters Of Atlas shining in the
sky; for Myrope's face is still con-
cealed behind one of her sister stars
