"Save Your Vision Week." which
began yesterday, is fostered by

eye defects that can be traced
to lack of care during childhood.
Figures compiled from recent
visual surveys made throughout I

per cent of the number of boys
and girls in schools and colleges
have ever had an adequate eye
examination. Dr. Dayton said.
These surveys vary but slightly

groups In widely separated sections
