Simple Procedure at Birth
Safeguards. ChiId;s Eyes

by the entire world? The drops
didn't hurt the baby'S eyes bit;
even if the eyes were perfectly well.
There was no elaborate procedure
necessary to be gone through-no
microscopic examination Of the Sc
erection from the eye-just put in
the drops on chance. Well, it wasn't
welcomed. People were afraid that
putting drops into the baby's eyes
would hurt it. Midwives fought the
idea. Not until 1888 did such an
enlightened state as Illinois make
the procedure compulsory. HAS
f Birth blindness is caused by in
lection of the conjunctiva Of the
baby's eyes by passage through the
birth canal. The germ which causes
it is the gonococcus. IF no proven
tive measure is used a violent irl-
fiammation Of the surface Of the
eye occurs, resulting eventually in
soaring and that horrible cooked
egg white appearance. All light
gone forever. And perfectly pre-
ventive by simple and harmless
means.
/ So If you hear anyone protesting
about putting drops into the baby's
eyes, lend your enlightened support
to, making a correction.
/ The other things that might mar
the brightness Of the eyes are In
fectious diseases later in life. Any
disease may pull down baby's re-
sistance and allow ulcers to develop
on the surface Of the eyeball. They
are healed by appropriate treat
ment. =
The baby needs sunshine, but the
eye structures are sensitive, ana
the direct rays Of the sun on It's
eyes may result in Inflammation
and discomfort

heaves of gloom for the fascinating
sinfulness of the town, all ought to
meet Janet.
She was a small town girl and
from the time she was Is her parents

to bed. She smoked. She rouged
heavily. She wisecracked cynically on
subjects which were sacred a long
time ago. Then suddenly she ran
away from home and came to New
York to go on the stage.
Here, according to the rules laid
down by several generations of wise
and blind tattlers on New York, is
the perfect setup for the old, old
drama. She goes from bad to worse.

any foolishness in her pretty head
when she ! arrived in Pennsylvania

If Janet had remained in the small
town of her birth, it is quite conceiv-
able that she would have gone from
bad to worse, But in New York her
carryings-on shocked nobody. She
snapped out of it with a bang. Now
she no longer smokes. She will pour
her cocktail behind the sofa if she can
get away with it. She spends hours
taking sun-ray baths, having her face
rubbed. undergoing weird new beauty

The Promise Of Easter

Once more the whole world rejoices in the return
of Spring and the resurrection of the earth from its
winter death This ancient festival, celebrated from
the earliest times by all inhabitants Of the northern
hemisphere has special significance for Christians,
since the early Church adopted it the occasion on
which to celebrate the resurrection of Christ after
His crucifixion. But the return of Spring was
the great annual festival of all peoples for thousands
of years before the Christian It concides too,
very closely with the ancient Jewish feast OF the
Passover which itself derives from the primitive uni
versal rejoicing over the rebrth of life as evidenced
by the return of all green growing things, and the
bringing forth of their young by the beasts of the
forest and fields.
There is no mention in Scriptures of Easter as a
special day Of celebration, Of any other special
holy day But the fathers who built up the church
founded upon the teachings Of Christ wisely en-
couraged the pagan people whom they sought to win
to the new religion to retain their ancient traditional
festivals adding to them new significance and
symbolism Thus it came about that the old festival OF
Easter, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of Spring. came to
be- as an early church historian wrote, observed
with the gladness of new solemnity," and the old
name has become the English name for the festival
which in other languages has name derived from
the Jewish passover The Germans call it "Pass' the
French "Paques', the Italians "Pasqua" and the
Welsh "Pasg" But in all languages it signifies the
most sacred and the most joyful of Christian festi
walls.
The significance of Easter is the hope and promise
which the resurrection of Our Lord holds for every
one Of eternal life for the human soul and spirit just
as the return Of the from it's winter Information III
the South has brought to all peoples in all times prom
se and evidence that life does not end when grasses
wither and trees shed their foliage at the advent OF
Winter but continues to manifest itself afresh in new
FORMS so the Resurrection of Christ is pledge to
every faithful believer in Him that they, too, shall
not perish but shall have everlasting life.
