gan his examination of school chill
dren on that afternoon. DR.. 4andel
remained here two days, returning OF
Tuesday evening. He examined
large number of children and fIttet
many with glasses. That the Williams
school was able to finance this serv'
ice, for which nothing had been al
lowed in the school budget for the
year, was due largely to the efforts
of Miss Esther Perry and the faculty
cooperating in the raising of funds tc
cover the expense. Examinations were
made in what was formerly the sec
ond grade American room, which has
been converted into an office for the
school nurse. A number of children
