Smith, of Sioux Falls, today. The convention is meeting in room 705, Patterson hotel. It opened at 10 o’clock this morning, presided over by Dr. L. G. Power, Minot, president. Secretary A. 8. Anderson, Fessenden, reported registration of about 50. In opening the convention, Presi- dent Power spoke on the prevalence of near-sightedness among school children. Five children out of every | 100 will suffer that affliction unneces- | sarily this year, he said. Not Born Near-Sighted jot “Children,” he said, “are not born }~ near-sighted, they are not the victims of badly formed eyes. The tremen- dous strain put on the eyes by our modern civilization, with interminable print and machines causes many eyes to become near-sighted. “Modern corrective optometry by its research into the causes of this and other visual problems of childhood, has found the method of preventing this tremendous handicap. The alarm- ing phase of the problem is that near- sightedness is on the increase. “Parents and family physicians should be warned that, at the yery first manifestation of near-sighted- ness, an immediate examination of the child’s eyes should be made by an optemetrist. This is not a simple test, but a careful determination of the en- tire condition of the eyes. “If this early examination is made, thousands of children who fail and who drop out of school, can be made successful students. If the child is failing in school, look first to his eyes, because the demand of modern education is so great on the eyes that, if any defect is there, the chiid will be hopelessly Nan od inh Trying to Shelve Eye-Glasses Another review and analysis of the problem of defective vision was made by Dr. Herbert N. Smith, the Sioux Falls authority on optometrics. He stressed of our bodily ills. Taking up the matter of transportation speed, he said that “we approach each other at @ rate of 120 miles an hour, while our ancestors had to move at a speed of about five or six miles an hour. Dan- ger of collision on the street is at least one-thousandfold to the danger of 1900, and the adjustability of the eyes, as well as quick interpretation of the relation of speed, is absolutely necessary if we are to have a chance of dying a natural death.” Dr, Smith was asked: “Is it possible for this science of optometry to do away with glasses entirely by giving muscle treatments?” Replying, he said he did not think it possible, but that research depart- ment of the American Optometric association is working on this prob- lem and hopes to be able to show greater results in this branch of the man Catholic Archbishop of Milwau- kee, Wisconsin, died at Goldach, last night, at 83. Archbishop Messmer was the oldest ‘Roman Catholic prelate in America. For more than a year he had been in ill health. Twice doctors despaired of his life.

Eyes Should Get School Care ‘The speaker advocated introduction into the schools of at least an hour a week of stereoscopic exercises in class rooms and the examination of all school children’s eyes by experts. Defective eyesight need not mean that a patient's eyes may bother him, said Dr. Smith. It may be reflected in headaches, stomach trouble and nervous exertion, therefore, the de- fect should be corrected. Moving pictures do not bring an eye strain, said Dr. Smith, provided the eyes are properly corrected. The fact that more people today are wear- ing glasses is due to the fact that the people of 1920 are better educated to the use of glasses. Eighty-five per cent of our education is attained by the medium of eyesight, he added. Dr. Smith is a graduate of the Uni- versity of South Dakota and of North- ern Illinois College of Optometry. He is president of the South Dakota as- sociation of Optometrists and also is president of the Mid-West States Optometric conference—composed of the states of Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, South Dakota, Missouri and Colorado.

For centuries the Huicholes have lived undisturbed in the wild interior of Nayarit, constantly moving about in search of escape from death, which they fear more than do any other tribe or people in Mexico. When one of their number dies, they abandon their crops and flee thinking thus to evade a repetition of the event.

The husband goes out of his way to respect and treat his wives well, Aguirre explained. At meal time his wives sit on their haunches in a circle about him, offering tortillas and chile they have prepared for him, and to avoid hurting the feelings of any one, the brave eats an equal amount of the food offered by each: There are times, Aguirre said, when a husband wishes to dispose of one of his wives, In such cases, he talks to her kindly, explaining that he no longer wishes her in his entourage, Cg goes out to find a new home for er.

(E. 8. T.) yesterday when he attempted to take off in the dark against the advice of airport officials. Mears suffered a wrenched shoulder, but his pilot, Henry J. Brown, was unhurt. The plane was a total wreck. “We are temporarily down, but not out,” Mears said. ‘We will try again. If not this year, in 1931.” .. The plane did not catch fire and this probably saved the lives of the fliers and their dog-mascot ‘“Tailwind TI,” who scampered away..after the wreck. : The airmen took-off from Roosevelt Field, N.
