From Unit No. 8

Upon reading Col. McCrae's
immortal verse, Miss Molina MI
chael wrote the following dedi-
cation:
On. you who sleep in Flanders
Sleep Sweet-to rise anew
We caught the torch you threw
And holding high, we keep the
Faith
With all who die.
we cherish too, the poppy red
That grows in fields where val
or led;
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies
But lends a luster to the red
OF the flowers that bloom
above the dead
In Flanders Fields.
And now the torch and poppy
red
We wear in honor of our dead
Fear not that We have died for
naught;
We've learned the lesson that
We taught
In Flanders Fields.
Miss Michael was year after
year increasingly impressed by
the need of a token Lest we
Forget" She realized we could
not have beautiful memorials
in every corner of the land
from whence our heroes came,
but the poppy could be worn
as a memorial everywhere. She
also wanted the American Le-
gion to be the first national
organization to adopt the poppy
and on the eve of the Georgia
Department convention Of that
body she turned over to the
Atlanta, Georgia post all her
data concerning the poppy be-
ing made the Legion Memorial
flower. The movement was pre-
sented to the convention, the
poppy was adopted and the del
egation to the national conven-
ton was instructed to present
a resolution and support it. AS
a result the Cleveland conven-
ton, Sept. 27-29, 1920, adopted
the poppy as the memorial
flower. Later, at its organizing
convention at Kansas City in
1921, the American Legion aux
iliary also made the poppy its
memorial flower and pledged
the profits 100 per cent to well
fare work for the service men
and their families.

either hand without preference and presum-
ably does the same with his eyes. Then the
parents should try to train the hand and eye
that seem stronger to be the boss"
Such children. it is pointed out, often be-
come those awkward individuals who are all
thumbs when they try to push a button
through buttenhele or seem to be cursed
with two left hands.
And in the olden days being left-handed
was thought of as something Of curse. For
the left side was believed to be unlucky. The
word sinister-which really eft-re-
ceived it's meaning of something threatening
or dreadful for this
One of the strangest cases of left-eyedness
and right-eyedness came to light In New York
City early last year. Archie McGhee, teacher
at the New York Vocational High School, dis
closed the fact that he had one eye with
which he could read in the dark and which
would magnify watch to the size of saucer
In fact he had made of this magnifying
eye to repair watches and could read the
Lords Prayer on a pinhead with this eye
which was the right one.
McGhee's left eye wasn't a magnifier at
all He uses it for ordinary. normal vision.
Perhaps he is normally left-eyed individual
and for sorne-reasen- his -Fight-eye has de-
-veloped this other unusual magnifying ability.
He may have had a harder job than any
ordinary feft-eyed person In adjusting but
shows no signs of having become nervous or
depressed over it.
Since the study of left-eyedness has be-
come more important in the eyes of scientists,
and especially since national defense has be-
come important in the minds of all, 1t has
been suggested that the left-eyed and left
handed individual may have some special i'm
portance in the defense job.
Not long ago this was found to be true Of
the color-blind individual. Previously he was
exempt from military service because of what
regarded a handicap.
Now he is in demand-for it has been dis
covered that he can see through camouflage
and discover the hidden object much quicker
than person with normal eyesight
At any rate. experts do not recommend
making over the left-siders. be 1t eyes. feet
or hands-or all They do hope however. to
get hold of these cases as early as possible
and keep them from the encouragement that
comes from failure in accomplishing tasks
that are hard for them.

youngster who is extremely slow at learning

Much of DR. Crosland's work has been done
with school children learning to read. Here
the psychologist uses two machines, built
especially for testing the eyedness of an in
dividual.
One machine is called the Kaleidoscope.
1t somewhat resembles the old-fashioned
stereoscope that was prominent in Grandma's
parlor years ago-where if you were very
good you were allowed to look at the views"
Through this machine the subject looks at
series of specially prepared cards-using first
one eye and then the other
Another machine called the chronoscope,
measures the length of time each card is ex-
posed-for each eye.
When the looking process is over the sub
ject being tested is asked to write down what
he saw. Right eyes and left eyes always come

evedness points out in his book, Reading.
Writing and Speech Problems in Children,
published by w w. Norton, New York, that
superior eft-sided person is just as norman
and can be Just as successful as a superior
right-sided person.
Leonardo da Vinci famous for his many
works of art of which the beautiful Mona Lisa
is one, is an outstanding example or le1t-
sidedness He always painted with his lett
hand and because of his peculiar brush strokes
experts not long ago were able to prove that
certain pictures attributed to this great ARTIST
were not painted by him but by a right
handed person. Da Vinci whose right half
brain apparently was master is only one OF
the superior '1efties" who have made name
for themselves in a world made for right
sders.
But on the other side of the picture,
psychologists find an unusual number OF left
eyed and left-handed youngsters in reforma-
tories and mental institutions.
MANY of these children may be there be-
cause of such simple things as being unable
to learn to read or write as we'll as other
children of their age.
This seems little thing but being classed
as the prize "dumb-bell" by his classmates.

for those awful report cards, is bound to make
such a youngster sensitive From being SEN
sttive he may become sly and furtve until
finally instead of being the class Ounce he
is the schools No. Bad Boy. Or-he may
become silent depressed and seem extremely
stupid. This may be the first step toward
mental upset
Pathetically enough, many of these young
sters who have failed to adjust are highly in
telligent And most of them. while not poten-
tial Da Vincis, can be at least normal citizens.
All most of them need is a little help.
For the completely left-sded child adjust
ment is not so difficult although it should
be carried out by an expert trained in teach
ing the left-sided minority. But, most experts
on eyedness will agree that the most trouble
comes when the right eyes try TO work with
left hands and the other way around. Here
the two halves of the brain seem to be squab-
bling over which shall dominate and each
wins one point.
Another difficulty is found in some chill
dren where neither hand and neither eye
seems to be master. The young child uses

out with different scores and that is one Of
the ways to determine whether a person is
right-eyed or left-eyed.
Using this test Or. Crosland found that
alarge number of poor readers in the public
schools were left-eyed and the good readers
right-eyed
And one of his big surprises came when
testing a number of Jewish children who had
been taught to read both English and Hebrew.
The Hebrew language is read from right to
left instead of from left to right as in the
English language. The right-eyed Jewish
children made as poor scores reading Hebrew
as did the left-eyed American children read
ing English.
So good reader of Hebrew should be left
eyed according to these results.
Other experts in the field of eyedness use
other machines and methods for testing it.
For simple home trial it has been sug-
gested that you double up one fist leaving
the index finger pointing out This may be
thought of as A pistol. Raise the fist above
your head Leave both eyes pen-aRd- bring
the fist down-pointing straight toward
door knob or some other prominent object in
the room. Close first one eye and then the
other If the open right eye is in line with
both the finger and the target you are right
eyed II the left eye is in line when it is
open you are left-eyed.
And, If the left eye WINS IN your case
don't let that worry you too much If your
life is normal and happy. you probably long
since have made any adjustments that were
necessary TO fit yourself into this right-eyed
mans world But if you are overly nervous
or irritable, shy and retiring or inclined to be
depressed, according to DR.. Crosland's theory
your left eye may be responsible 1t may be
worth while to do a little experimenting of
your own how well you adapt your south
paw eye TO this work -a-day world.
If your child turns out to be left-eyed this
is something his teacher should know for she
will need to use special methods to help him
overcome this handicap in learning to read
and write.
Some schools are helping left-sided people
by adapting chairs. pencils shears and other
tools to left handed use. DR.. Byng Bryngelson
of the University of Minnesota has done a
great deal of work along this line
Another of his accomplishments is curing
stutterers-who probably had developed their
speech defect because they had been changed
from natural left-handedness to an assumed
right-handedness-by getting them to play
left-handed ping-pong.
Most experts will agree that a truly left
sided person should be allowed to develop that
way and helped to make what adjustments
are necessary to our right-handed world. Try
ing to change from left eye to right eye or
from left hand to right hand may be serious
business, because this means throwing the

But sometimes the two sides seem to
squabbIe for supremacy and then comes the
most trouble. for a person may be right
handed. left-eyed and right-footed or other
wise mixed up.
Animals apparently do not have master
halves to their brains and rarely, except in
the case of some dogs and horses. do they
show any preference for using one foot instead
of the other. Some experts claim that the
very fact that mans brain has specialized
half which rules many of the bodily activi-
ties is the reason that man is supreme in the
world rather than some animal.
Dr. Crosland has been working for years
on the problem of which eye is boss and how
that affects its owner He sees need for
helping left-eyed people to adjust to right
eyed world for. as might be expected. most
people are right-eyed as well as right-handed.
Maybe this will mean picking special jobs for
people with "southpaw" eyes. Maybe 1t will
mean making more left-eyed instruments for
them to use.
One thing is certain, according to this
psychologist. Much can be done to keep left
eyed and left-handed children from becoming
