In his opinion, the tation. by the Supreme Court His favorite example is interstate commerce, that undefined some- thing’ which the Constitution says the Congress shall regulate. “When our country was there was very little commerce among the states,” explains the champion of advanced labor legis- lation. ' “In fact, the roads were 50 bad interstate commerce on a largé scale ‘was impossible, but now some sta- tisticians contend 90 per cent of our commerce is interstate. “Anybody can see .that much of our trade is carried on nationally without. regard: for state lines; so why should we not state the thing in s0 many words, and proceed young stance, should yield only to local public opinion when it comes to Governor | Whole thing is a matter of interpre- | wages and hours.

Eight Reasons " Why It Pays to Have Your Eyes and the Eyes of Your Children Cared for by Your Local Optometrist. FIRST— BECAUSE your Juneau Optometrist (Eyesight Specialist) is here the year r;)qnd and MUST make good every claim. BECAUSE your glasses require occas- ional adjustment and this expert serv- ice MUST be done by a resident Op- tometrist. BECAUSE quality for quality, you pay no more than you would from any legitimate (non bait-advertising) out- side practitioner. BECAUSE your local Optometrist is equipped with the latest and most scientific eye examining instruments, such as are found in the best optom- etric establishments in the states; in- struments that CANNOT be carted around from place to place; which means that in patronizing your local Optometrist you are assured of a thor- SECOND— THIRD— FOURTH— LET GEORGE BROTHERS’ PAY'N TAKIT SAVE YOU MONEY!

BECAUSE no Optometrist that has ever visited Alaska during our thirteen years residence in the Territory, could produce credentials from as fine and reputable an Optometric' College as your Jocal Optometrist. BECAUSE Cross' Eyes CANNOT be straightened by glasses only. They need corrective exercises to develop fusion and binocular coordination, and such exercises can only be obtained at the office of yqur resident Optom- etrist, who has special instruments for that particular purpose. SEVENTH —BECAUSE many cases of progressive MYOPIA (near sightedness) need be and can be checked and reduced by proper exercises for which your resi- dent Optometrist has the needed in- struments. AND LASTLY BECAUSE your local Optometrist needs your business in order to make possible that you have a competent specialist in this line in your commun- ity at all times. DR. RAE L.
