Beverly Killt. Calif. Rescue Work for POW's PREVENTION OF NEARSIGHTEDNESS the talk about myopia (American Journal of Ophthol Dr. Brady In (nearsightedness. shortsighted ness, a few weeks ago we said that tne cnna who inherits a dolichocephalic head (skull long from li out to back and compara- tively narrow from ear to ear) will not necessarily do velopc suffic ient myopia or near sigh ted to require glasses at the age of ten or later, no matter how near-sighted one or both parents may be. Whether the individual with this Teutonic shape of skull, as com pared with the brachycephallc shape of skull, short and broad, the American Indian type, shall become seriously near-sighted in youth and early adult life de pends upon the amount of strain to which the eyes are subjected in childhood, upon neglect of or prevention of nutritional defic iency in the developing period, upon prescribing or proscribing a physicinn, and upon the amount of open air activity, play, exercise, sport or work the Individual gets during child hood and youth. The young person predisposed to nearsightedness by heredity or shape of skull must be care fully protected from excessive study or close work of any kind indoors, from use of the eyes for any kind of close work during and for a few weeks after such illnesses ns measles, scarlet fever, whooping cough, mumps. Indistinct or very fine print strains the eyes seriously. Nei ther evident redness nor other tye symptoms show whether or not there is eyestrain. Poor il lumination In school and at borne is a common, contributing factor of near-sightedness. Poor illumination or lighting will be considered In detail in a talk to follow. It concerns or should concern everybody, re gardless of the present state of his or her eyes and eyesight. According to Dr. A. A. Knapp mology, Dec, '39) better nutri tion, especially in relation to the vitamin supply, explains why there are fewer cases of progres sive myopia today than there were thirty years ago. Dr. Knapp believes the rarity of myopia in the American Indian, the fact that rural people are freer from myopia than people residing in cities ,and the fact that fewer people residing in high altitudes, are explained by the greater supply of sunshine vitamin D they get. The great prevalence of myopia In China is due to the vitamin deficiencies and the general poor nutrition in that country. Dr. Knapp advises supplementing the patient's diet with vitamin D and calcium. Dr. H. H. Husted (The Cyto metric Weekly, Feb. 24, '44) gives his observation of many years that if myopic children get plenty of sunshine or vitamin D internally and drink plenty of milk (best food source of cal cium) or if they will not drink milk then an adequate daily ra tion of calcium to supplement the poor diet, their myopia is fairly well controlled, does not progress and become more se vere as they get no Into the teens. In the booklet "V-I-T-E Spells Youth" (for copy send 10 cents and stamped self addressed en velope) a well-known horse-and-buggy doctor advises that nearly all growing children and youths who are not as strong and vigor ous as they should be, ought to eat half a dozen tablets of vita min D, thiamine and riboflavin every day to supplement the ordinary deficient American form of vitamin D for vn-ji!? I people to take. Whether to check the progress of myopia (gradual increase of nearsighted ness in the 'teen and early adult life) or to prevent develop ment of such weaknesses as spin al curvature, round shoulders, fatigue posture, sway-back, weak ankles, pronated feet, this daily ration of vitamin D, vitamin Bl (thiamine) and G (riboflavin) is essential food, not medicine, and must be continued daily for years, like bread and cheese. if 1 stats - .

Jfl w Price Control On i Lumber Not Ended Washington, Sept. 5 (U.R) Forget about that OPA an nouncement that price control ( on lumber and primary forest! products has been suspended, ! the Office of Price Administra tion said today. It was a typo graphical error. , Lumber and primary forest products appeared in a list of materials exempted or suspend ed from price control. The In clusion, OPA explained, was "inadvertent."

New York, Sept. 5 (U.R) Gloria Swanson said today that charges of her fifth husband, William N. Davey. that she de frauded him by claiming to be in perfect health were "'absolutely falsehoods." and that actually Davey had "worn her down with his persistence and lavish prom ises." Her counter-charges were round three In a separate suit battle which began when Miss Swanson silent screen star, filed rharges of abandonment against Davey Davey retaliated with charges of fraud, claiming that she underestimated her debts and jvcr-estlmnted her health before they were married. Miss Swanson, In asking $1000 weekly alimony, added today in her nnswer to Davey's charges that Davey was a millionaire with nn 80-toot yacht that cost 8100,000 a year to run. She said his hnchelor living expenses alone ran to $3000 a month and that he had a "great appetite" for liquor and caviar. OUve feSS Barber's ;BPfsi j Letter I i ... I individualism of the teen-agers' dancing is Indicative of their political activity when grown up, then indeed democracy Is safe, for they will follow no sot pattern. Seemingly following the beat of a single drummer, yet while some few moved about with an almost stately decorum, others gyrated with all the abandon of intoxicated Mexican beans. One of those which intrigued me most was a maid of perhaps 15 summers. Bespccktaclcd and dressed In a gingham frock right out of Godcys' her hair was done in pigtails. Only the use of a monkey wrench could have ac complished those tight little braids. They stuck out from her head as though they would escape, if they could, from the abandoned behaviour of the slip pered feet which carried them about. Finally the white bow on one braid did escape and lay on the floor, a poor little butter fly come to rest. I wished I could rescue It but soon it was past all rescue, crushed by the feet of the dancers. One lad was In overalls and danced with his knees bent at what to me seemed a punishing angle. He ricocheted rather than danced, hurled about by some in visible force outside his own con trol but he never missed a dance. I wished he and the maid with the braids would get to gether. That would have been something But they never did. One lad lighted a cigarette but hastily unllghted it at the descent of a scandalized chapcr one. He had not, he apologized, known of the restriction. Since youngsters will dance, I can think of no finer move toward defeating delinquency than that matrons see they have a super vised opportunity to do so.
