Weep Means Little to Cab
Driver Giving Him Direction

NORFOLK, VA.-The weep"
didn't mean a thing to this man
and it happened this way:
When the stout, worried gentle
man in the sporty convertible asked
cab driver Oscar Osmund the way
from Little Creek to Norfolk, he
got his answer. Not, however, be-
fore Osmund had pressed him into
service as an assistant in the greasy
job of checking the oil in his cab.
That job accomplished, Osmund
led the gentleman and his woman
driver to a Norfolk ferry dock.
He got SIS for his pains. Then he
found out just who the assistant
oil checker was.
It was Vice-President Alben
Barley. The driver was Mrs.
Barley. En- route to Washington,
they had lost their way.
Osmund wasn't impressed.
who's Vice-President Barkley?"
he asked.

Of nature to satisfy his demands.

ELGIN, ILL.-Before retiring to-

But don't wind your watch, warns

According to William H. Same
Illus, head of the Elgin watchmak-

service if they're wound at the
same time each day. And since our
arising habits are more constant
than our time Of retiring. morning
is tie time to wind your watch.

Falls lead the list of home acct
dents, and a large number of such
falls that result in death, or in
temporary or permanent disability,
take place on stairs. Leaving OBJ
jects or the stairs to be carried up
or down, and inadequate lighting
r major causes of stairway
tumbles.
Leaving objects on the stairs is
a pernicious habit that should be
taboo in every home. The tripper-
over-toys or cleaning materials
left at the top or bottom of the
stairs is fortunate if he suffers
nothing worse than a skinned
elbow that can be taken care of
with a touch of antiseptic and an
adhesive bandage, i.e., one of those
ready-to-use dressings that has the
gauze pad already affixed to the
adhesive tape. He is just as likely
to end up with a broken arm or leg.
Stairways should have double
action switches at the top and
bottom so that the light can be
turned on before starting up or
down, and turned off afterward.
Again it is only good luck if anti
septic and a ready-made adhesive
bandage are all that are called for,
as the result of a fall on badly
lighted stairs.
Few such accidents have even
the grim element of humor pro-
vided by the insurance claimant
who reported that, believing he had
reached the bottom of a dark base
ment stairs, he raised his head and
struck a rafter. Thinking he had
been attacked by an intruder, he
struck out with his fists, hitting a
post and breaking several bones in
lis right hand.

executive director of the District
organization.
In founding the society here in
1886, Mrs. Worries worked with the
late DR.. William Holland Wilmer,
internationally renowned oph-
thalmologist who had then re-
tired from the Wilmer Institute
at Johns Hopkins.
Her other activities have in
cluded successful campaigns to es-
tablish sight conservation classes
in her native New Orleans and
the District of Columbia. She. also
was instrumental in the passage
of special legislation in the Dis
trict for the control of ophthalmia
neonatorum, an eye infection
affecting newborn babies.
The first sight conservation
class below the Mason and Dixon
line was started in New Orleans
in 1921 as result of Mrs.
Worries efforts. After moving to
Washington in 1929, she con-
tinued her work along this line
and in 1884 saw similar classes
established in the District.
In the field of legislation, Mrs.
Worries campaigned successfully
for a law. passed in 1887, requir-
ing that silver nitrate be put into
the eyes of all newborn babies
In the District.
She also worked as a "one-
woman lobby" to secure appropri-
ations for an ophthalmologist to
give regular eye examinations in
the District schools and to pro-
vide school transportation for
partially blind children.
Although the sight conserva-
ton program in the New Orleans
schools included the services of
an ophthalmologist from the be-
ginning, it was several years be-
fore similar service was made
part of the District program, Mrs.
Worries pointed out. ITO my deep
regret, at the present time the
District schools have only the
part-time services Of an ophthal-
mologist," she declared last week
The Districts sight conserva-
ton classes are under the direc-
ton of the Board of Education,
but the District Society for the
Prevention of Blindness cooper
ates as the occasion demands.
The society also has worked with
Delta Gamma Sorority which of
fers scholarships for the training
OF special teachers for such
classes.
