Nj. & NJ. LIONS CLUB WORKING
On CONSERVATION PROGRAM

The M. d M. Lions club is work
ing on sight conservation pro-
gram. 1t is their opinion that
through cooperation with schools
ana other agencies interested in
child welfare, much can be done
throughout the county.
More children have defects in
vision than is unually suspected.
Some of these may never become
serious, especially if the individual
is not called upon to do work that
requires much eye strain. But
school work calls for close. severe
use or the eyes. Eye strain causes
many headaches. Many other sys-
temlc upsets may be caused by the
drain on the nervous system due to
maladjusted eyes. In many cases
the child who has seemed stupid or
dull has changed to good pupil
after his eyes have been properly
cared for.
