There has been great excitement
here over the trial of the German
saboteurs, Congressmen who were
still in Washington rtqiort receiv
ing strongly worded letters from
their constituents stating that the
Germans were given much tOO
great consideration in the long
trial that preceded sentence. It is
clear that the public never ques
tioned their guilt and favored im
mediate* conviction as an example
to other enemies who may be
planning sabotage within our
country.
The Federal Bureau of Investi
gation reports that their offices
throughout the country have been
flooded with tip» about suspicious
people who should be investigated
as possible saboteurs and the FBI
is doing everything possible to run

alone ie»pon»ible for the misuse
of a baby's eyes. They are also
indirectly responsible for bad eye
hygiene later on if they fail to
teach their children the value of
good eyesight and how to preserve
it.
Never leave a baby lying in his
carriage to look up into the light.
Gf course he will blink and use
other instinctive means for shut
ting out part of the brightness, but
you could spare him this wasteful
use of energy by keeping the car- ,
riage hood over his eyes and the I
carriage itself turned away from ;
the sun. Even during the daily
sun bath shade his eyes. In the '
house, just because the baby is j
fascinated by a bright light do not
let him face it, or for that matter, I
lie for long looking at a bright
wall. In decorating the nursery j
keep the baby’s eyes in mind and '
choose a soft pastel color for the !
walls.
It takes the average baby three'
months or longer to learn to focus,

glances needn’t alarm you. How

Babies are bom with far-sighted
eyes. Their eyeballs are shorter
and flatter from front to back
than tho^e of an adult. As the
child grows the eyeball rounds out

with problems beyond his years.
One shudders to think of the Little
girls who were once forced to do
needlework before their eyes were
ready for it because "sewing a
fine seam” was a first step in fem
inine accomplishments.
A careful checkup of the child’s
eyes should be made before entei-
ing school, and frequently there
after until visual maturity is
reached. < Remember that a child
can t tell you if he has a visual
defect because he doesn’t know
what 100 per cent sight is.) Not

reading at school age. The eye
ball may not only still be too im

not have learned as yet to use his
eyes in unison. Correct alignment

he may need visual training rather
than extra «lrill with words and
sentences.
