to which it has been accustomed.
These demands affect particularly
two organs-the eye and the ear
and. of course, a third-thc brain.
Even in early childhood the par
ents usually can spot the situation
if the child for some reason or
other is more on less hard Of hear
ing. But defects of vision may oc-
u without anyone being aware
VI them.
In the playtime world of baby
hood and early childhood, the re-
1uirements Of accuracy for vision
are not very exact. The toys, the
playmates, the food and eating
utensils are large and if they are
q little bury the child has no
awareness Of it, because it has no
standards Of comparison, and it
does not complain, and the parents
may be entirely unaware of a gross
nearsightedness or astigmatism.
But as soon as it is necessary to
distinguish letters and figures the
blurring may amount to enough
SO that confusion is constant.
Many Of these children 7 regard
ed rs stupid or ~inattentive, when
the real trouble is that they can
not see letters on the printed page
or on charts clearly and naturally
do not know what the demonstra-
ton is all about.
Real Problem
in one state where statistics Of
she preliminary examination Of
children before entering school
are we'll kept it was found a few
years ago that there were 5000
children with defective vision and
1900 with defective hearing. So
the problem is real.
The far-sighted eye al accom-
modate and bring objects into TO-
Gus by strong muscular contrac-
ton of the muscles which thicken
the lens of the eye. But this i'm
poses strain more or less severe
and the far-sighted child while not
accused Of stupidity like the near
sighted one, because he can by an
effort see the letters of the lesson
clearly, will begin when school
tasks are imposed to complain of
eye strain-aching eyes, rubbing
the eyes, headaches. burning SEN
sation in the eye lids, etc. He is
subject to styes because he rubs
his eyes SO much with contaminat-
ed fingers.

happy and stopped in at the Town
Shoppe to get a piece of embroid-
cry to work on. She liked the looks
of the little place and the girl who
ran it. A bustling little woman
came over to her and shook hands
eagerly.

Toward Argentina
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON, Mar. 8.-Foreign Sec
retary Anthony Eden told the

British government would continue
to maintain guarded, watchfuI
attitude toward Argentina until the
political situation there is clarified
Asked whether the government
intended to maintain relations with
the present Argentine regime head
ed by acting President Edelmiro
Farrell. Mr.. Eden said:
"On February Is it was announced
In Buenos Aires that, fatigued by
the intense tasks of government,
President Ramirez had delegated
his functions to Vice President Gen.
Farrell. In view of the obscurity
surrounding the circumstances in
which this announcement came his
Majestys Ambassador has since
that time confined his communica-
tions with the Argentine govern
ment to routine matters only and
similar proceedings are being OBJ
served as regards communications
between his Majesty's government
and the Argentine Ambassador in
London.
This attitude will be maintained
pending developments in Buenos
Aires"
Mr.. Eeden indicated the British
government was watching closely to
see what action would be taken by

The measure was similar to one

La Presna Asociada, Latin Amer

The ban, however, did not restrict
