Your Health
-BY DR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN

NTHEN you get a cinder III your eye, be careful
w how you try getting it out.
Here is probably the most annoying minor emer-
gency condition that person encounters and wrong
treatment may cause serious harm.
If the foreign substance happens to be lying loose
on the surface Of the eye or on the inside surface
of the eyelid, merely irritation and diff
Guilty with vision. But when it actually is imbedded
in the eye, extreme care must be taken to avoid ser-
Gus difficulties.
Experience shows that more harm comes from
the wrong kind OF emergency aid to persons who
have had injuries to the eye, than from any other
common injury.
Frequently experts who take care of such injuries
find the surface OF the eve marked with burrows and
scratches the result of efforts of unqualified people
TO take something out OF the eye.
MO one but an expert should attempt to remove
! = anything from the eye except small cinder or
piece of dust living loosely the surface In max
ing such removal YOU might follow this simple
routine:
Tell the patient to look down. then gently pull
the upper lid downward by the eyelashes and dou-
bic it back over a match tOOthpick covered with
cotton, some similar device If the foreign sub
stance Is easily visible. 1t be removed with
wisp Of cotton or gauze or with the corner OF clean
handkerchief
Never use hard object in removing foreign
substance.
IF YOU detect an injury to the eye or you find a
splinter Of glass piece of metal or some SIM
lar substance Embedded in the eye the best possible
thing 10 do Is TO mOisten q piece Of clean sterile
gauze with warm water put 1t over the eye and get
the person TO competent eye specialist as soon as
possible
sometimes. after cinder piece of dust has
been taken out OF the eye, the eye still will be pain
fu because Of scratches that have occurred. 1t is
useless. under such conditions to keep on turning
the eyelids backward and keep on scratching the
surface
II the pam Is not relieved promptly after removal
OF cinder or piece of dust you should get profess
SiOnal attention Immediately

In the Theatrical World
BY WALTER D. HICKMAN

sets a fast comedy pace for the
picture and furnishes relief when
the going gets a bit too melo-
dramatic.
The story concerns Neil Rog-
ers, a young man from out west,
and young girl from the east,
who meet in New York. Of course,
love develops. Mundin, sent as
a protector for the young Neil,
gets entangled in circumstances
beyond his apparent control and
before he knows it, Neil and the
girl are married.
The ensuing events, in which
the two old men back home take
quite intimately to the young
bride, and Neil takes to travelling
after he finds out that the girl
married him only for his money,
make a decided setting for mel
odramatic climax. But the thrill
ing rescue scene is manufactured
by the three old daddies for the
express purpose of bringing the
two love birds together again.
The entire cast performs cred
itably.

Under Sea Dance Sensation

TTARRY DELMAR' S Broadway
II Revels." current stage at
traction at the Lyric, is a spicy,
fast-moving revue packed with as
much variety as a five-ring circus.
Bob Carney, chief comedian Of
the show puts on several amusing
scenes with the aid of his hilarious
cohorts. One OF these is a scene
in which Carney. as a pompous
general. attempts to drill his
army of three men.
One of them faces one direction
and two face the other. when the
drilling begins. The resulting ac-
ton. when the general tries TO get
the soldier who is out Of place
back into line by using only mill
tary commands. makes up one Of
the funniest sequences seen in a
long time.

they we're waited for. Upon this,
they made excuses. One said he

must go to look at it. Another
that he had bought five yoke of
Oxen, and must go to try them.
Another, that he was newly mar

the Master of the house heard
this, he was angry, and told the
servant to go into the street, and
into the high roads, and among
the hedges, and invite the poor,

blind to supper instead"

telling them this Parable, was,

in the ground were all dried up
and blighted.
The Prodigal Son fell into such
distress and hunger, that he hired
himself out as a servant to feed
swine in the fields And he would
have been glad to eat, even the
poor coarse husks that the swine
were fed with. but his Master gave
him none.
In this distress, he said to him
self How many of my fathers
servants have bread enough, and
to spare, while I perish with
hungerl I will arise and go to my
father, and will say unto him,
Father; I have sinned against
Heaven and before thee, and am
no more worthy to be called Thy
Son!"
A ND so he travelled back again,
IA in great pain and sorrow
and difficulty, to his fathers
house. When he was yet a great
way off, his father saw him, and
knew him in the midst Of all his
rags and misery, and ran towards
him, and wept, and fell upon his
neck, and kissed him. And he told
his servants to clothe this poor
repentant Son in the best robes,
and to make a great feast to cele-
brate his return. Which was done;
and they began to be merry.
But the eldest Son, who had
been in the field and knew moth
ing Of his brothers return. coming
to the house and hearing the
music and dancing, called to one
of the servants, and asked him
what it meant. To this the serv-
ant made answer that his brother
had come home, and that his
father was joyful because of his
return. At this, the elder brother
was angry, and would not go into
the house; so the father, hearing
of it, came out to persuade him.
Father" said the elder broth
err, you do not treat me justly, to
show so much joy for my young
er brothers return. For these
many years 1 have remained with
you constantly, and have been
true to you, yet you have never
made a feast for me. But when
my younger brother returns, who
has been prodigal, and riotouS,
and spent his money in many bad
ways, you are full Of delight, and
the whole house makes merry
Son." returned the father, you
have always been with me, and all
I have is yours. But we. thought
your brother dead, and he is
alive. He was lost, but he is
found. and it is natural and
right that we should be merry
for his unexpected return to his
old home"
By this, our Saviour meant to
teach, that those who have done
wrong and forgotten God, are al
ways welcome to him and will al
ways receive his mercy, if they
will only return to Him in sor-
row for the sin of which they
have been guilty.

TodaY's Science
BY DAVID DIETZ

TINE Age of Physics may be the next great dvi-
l. sion in the industrial history Of the world Since
the beginning Of the century, industry has leaned
so heavily upon chemistry that, as many authorities
have said the machine age might just we'll be
called the age of chemistry
The increasing need for physicists in industry is
pointed out by Dr. Paul D. Foote famous physicist,
who has just completed his term of office presi
dent of the American Physical Society.
While admitting that there are men engaged in
scientific research because they wish to devote their
life to the search of the truth Dr. FOOte seems to be
of the opinion that most scientific developments pay
Business wealth and commerce have usually
been the directing agencies in the great moral and
cultural developments Of the past" he says, and
science is no exception"
TINE life Of Pasteur, says Dr. Foote, illustrates
Il this universal trend of science as a function Of
its capabilities for the improvement of human vel
fare" Pasteur in Dr. Foote'S opinion, became the
hero of France because he applied the truths of
science to the immediate benefit of humanity
Superstition and other agencies attempt to COM
bat science, SAYS DR. FOote. but the fundamental
principle is emphasized again and again that when
science demonstrates its power to benefit humanity
physically physolOgically, psycholOgcaly, indus
trialy, and financially it can be deferred but not
defeated by opposition"
THE petroleum companies DR.. Foote says, have
L expended at least s50OO00O0 in the past eight
years in improving the technique Of applied geo.
physics Ore mining companies have likewise spent
vast sums to extend this branch of science.
Physicists from one petroleum research labora-
tory in the last year have laid down a network in
volvng more determinations of gravity and with
greater precision than the combined determinations
Of all the academic and governmental agencies in
their entire history.

What of it?" They have
abridged the free Americans

that was smart thing to do

thought this 0. k. too. In fact,
up to this time, the only act of

Roosevelt and the entire new deal great fury But
somehow they have been slow to annoy about this
and the popular feeling plainly is that if there
nothing downright larcenous about the air mail
contracts they would not have been Cancelled if they
had been all right

poison a poison He speaks OF campaign issues
and the great wrongs which trying to be rghted
by the statesmen of the Republican party. But then
Charlie Michaelson, another eX- journalist did not
speak of his poison poison either when he was

Republicans alike the man who achieved the
greatest job of poisoning ever accomplished in this
