Righi-EYed, Jeff Eyed,
 Cock Eyed

ROCHESTER, N. Y. Are you right-eyed or left-eyed? Here's a simple way to test yourself, sug- gested hy Bausch & Lomb Optical Company scientists:
 Tear hole the size of quar- ter in sheet of paper and hold it at arms length. Looking through the hole, with both eyes open, fix your eyes on some object across the room. Now gradually draw the pa per toward you until it touches your face. The hole will be over one eye. If you're left-eyed, it will be the less eye; and the right eye if you're right-eyed.
 Scientists say that in every per- son one eye is dominant, but that doesn't mean the other eye is weaker; in fact it may be the stronger. They've also discovered that right-handedness doesn't nec- essarily pair with right-eyedness. You were born with one dominant eye.

lished a wool factory during their
occupation of Britain to clothe their
armies. Throughout the middle ages
the fibre was in great demand in
the Low Countries and continental
Europe.
LATER: Ramie, called the Oriental
wonder fibre, was known to the
Chinese more than two centuries
before Christ. AS the years went
by, experiment and research in con-
nection with this fibre gradually
led to the production of artificial
silk, the forerunner of rayon.
SOON: The value of Ramie for dur
able clothes and fabrics is consid-
cred so high that home and national
economy will be enhanced by grow
ing and processing projects now
being developed in Florida. Also
important to us is that in a cruder
state, Ramie is ideal for making
Irvine and ropes of many kinds.
The synthetic fibre, nylon, is
noted for its toughness and elasti-
city. During World War Two,
Army elders were towed behind
airplanes by nylon ropes. which
were able to sustain the great ten
sion generated by the airspeed of
the towship and the drag of the
glider. New uses for the fibre are
