Tho eyes of tho present generation aro In no wise poorer, weaker or Inferior to those of our ancestors, notwith standing tho fact that n far greater per centage wear glasses than formerly. Tho probabilities nro that tho eyes of tho human raco aro neither weaker nor stronger today than woro thoso of our forefathers, unless It can bo proved that tho whole physique of tho raco to day is weaker or stronger. As is tho wholo physical body, ho aro the eyes. Hut much moro Is required of our eyes now than was ever required of our ancestors.
