why is goN ball 10 hard to
look at?"
Largely because the mind or brain
or whatever does the thinking isn't
on the ball or the swing-but ahead
OF the stroke-up where some bunker
or pond turks. The main thought in
golf should be upon the swing
upon the cause and not upon the
result.
1t isn't hard to look at a golf ball
II the backswing is smooth and even
II the downswing isn't rushed. The
trouble nearly always starts before the
head comes up. The answer is too
much tension. 1t isn't a matter Of
looking at the ball, anyhow-it is a
matter Of keeping the head or chin
in place-where it belongs at the
moment Of impact.

art center in the best meaning Of that
phrase. The members contributing to
the exhibition have submitted their
efforts to democratic Judgment. Juries
of their peers having appraised their
productions for showing and awards,
they now invite the verdict Of the
public in general. Each catalogue con-
tains ballot which may be cast for
"the best picture" and likewise for any
painting priced not over one hundred
dollars which the voter would prefer
to own"
The picture declared best" will be
given "the popular prize" and after the
close Of the exhibition a drawing will
be held to decide the winner of the
personal choice Of some fortunate visitor.
OF course, the plan is not new. In one
form or another, 1t has been tried both
in Europe and in the United States. But
the lack Of novelty is inconsequential.
What matters Is that the Washington
artists want the enthusiastic interest of
the lay public and have endeavored to
enlist 1t in practical manner. The
exhibition as such is we'll worthy of
inspection. With the added chance to
vote-a privilege rare enough in the

Fire Hazards.

None who viewed Sundays blaze or
who inspected the building even casually
the next day could fail to be impressed
by the speed and the completeness with
which the ire became an uncomfortable
thing within that particular building.
Portions of the councils report indicate
that some of the structures now housing
Federal employees would be equally vul-
nerable to the rapacious appetite of fire
II it should gain unobserved headway
" its inception.
The solution is not thoroughly simple

has its silly aspects, but there can be
little doubt that at times they are help
full.
Some find that in winter walking be-
comes difncult from the standpoint Of
increased light, what with leaves OF
the trees and the necessity, due to trafiic
hazards, Of looking sharply to right and
left.
Shaded glasses may help under such
circumstances.
The ambitious pedestrian who feels
that walking is good for him mentally
as we'll as physically will find there are
several ways to conserve his eyes.
IN the first place, he will keep his
eyes downcast nlodestly, on the plan Of
ancient moralists, but this time there
will be no particular morality about it..
1t will be simply q matter of expediency.
He Will have to raise them often
enough to prevent getting run down. He
will find 1t necessary to look rapidly
right and left at every corner.
There are certain points where he
must look in three, four or more direc-
tions, as there will be that many DOS
s1bihtteS of cars striking him.
At other times he will shield his ewes
from too much light by looking down.
+ X
In the second place, he will keep his
back to trafic-at the back of the side
walk, not at the front-when he is wait
ing on curb
This is particularly good procedure at
night, Tor then he will avoid the constant
glare OF oncoming headlights.
This applies with equal force in early
morning, in the half light which comes
before o'clock.
I Many motorists at such times forget
to turn of their lights, especially on
rainy or foggy mornings.
Watching these lights flee past is
interesting, perhaps, but harmful.
One may think, theoretically, at least,
that all dark glasses and eye shades will
be less helpful to eyes than wise eye
habits.
The old-fasnioned green shade, for
instance, as formerly seen in all news
paper offices, is now a thing of the past.
1t is realized that the eye has its own
self-adjusting mechanism, which con-
trols light admittance very well, indeed,
provided it is permitted to do its work.
Wearing Of a shade, or blinders, COM
pels the eye to try to function in a
shade while also looking out into the
light.
Any one who has stepped from the
outdoors into darkened theater knows
the difficulty of seeing for few mo-
ments until the pupil of the eye is ad-
justed to the difference of light.
The adjustment necessary on going
from the dark into the light does not
require as long time, but upon occasion
may be quite painful
Common sense handling of the eye is
far better than dark glasses and shades.
This common sense care, above all ex-
tends to artificial illumination. Changes
which seem required may not be within
the power Of the individual to bring
about, but nevertheless he may realize
the lack and work toward it's mitigation
for better eye health and better work for
all concerned
