EYES OF OG NO LONGER
SUFFICE FOR THIS AGE
Eyes Developed for Primitive
Forest a Total Loss Today

The eyes of Og no longer suffice for
the man of the street today. The Wis
ual apparatus designed and developed
for peering into the primitive forest,
is total loss for the desk slave of
the modern era.
The young business man may have
the keen sight of the eagle, yet hope
lessly hamper himself in the business
world today, with its ceasless concen-
tration at near point. Not on his
ability to see the distant horizon, but
his power to continue to absorb
knowledge hour after hour from prin-
ted reports, is the criterion.
The keenest eyed youngster on the
school yard, may be the dullard in
class, not because of defective mental
ability, but in that he has eyes SPLEEN
didly adapted for the primitive use,
but definitely detrimental after long
hours at the desk.
The staggering cost of re-educa-
ton of children in the United States
today, estimated by two States alone
as nine and seven and a half million
respectively, tells the toll of cost to
the taxpayers of this failure to under
stand Visual Inefficiency.
Industry, with loss of two and a
half billion yearly, from this failure
to understand the difference between
good sight and efficient vision, pays a
staggering price for it's heedlessness.
1t may literally be said that civiliza-
ton is being halted in its stride by
blind devotion to good sight rather
than efficient vision.
One fifth of the National payroll
wasted from visual inefficiency four
out of ten of the adolescenst in the
reformatories from the same cause,
the cost of re-education running a
staggering total, immediate compre-
hension of this tremendous problem
by the public is needed.
