SO Attend Meet More than 30 optometrists and invited quests from southern Oregon and northern California attended the session at the Rozue Valley Country club. Dr. Barstow pointed out that stresses of the day center them selves in the visual mechanism nd become localized to the point that thev seem to be in the ryes. The headaches, the "edzi np" of temper, and the weari ness at the end of the day are natural results, he said. Dr Barstow called attention to research done recently in the department of phychnloey at Purdue university. This led to the discovery that difficult read me assignments in school cause nervous tension and reactions among children. Youngsters who fail to receive help in meeting the stress may sustain damage that ill affect both school and Iter careers. lp Found The speaker said vision speci alists have found ways to help the "harried" businessman, wo lin and the school child.

Girls receiving diplomas were the following: Pension payments are made only to wartime veterans or their eligible depedents for disabili ty or death not connected with the veteran's service. Not affect ed by the law are compensation payments made to veterans or their survivors for disability or death incurred as a result of either wartime or peacetime service, Brannock emphasized. Imprisonment periods of less than 61 days, or of any length before actual conviction, will not stop pension payments, Bran nock said. To prevent hardships, the law provide? that VA may I pay pension to the eligible wife or children of a veteran- who forfeits his own pension during imprisonment. Pension Forfeited VA pension being received by a veteran's widow is forfeited for her period of imprisonment greater than 60 days. However, if she has eligible children, pay ment may be made on their be half, Brannock pointed out. The 60-day rule also applies to any part of a pension being paid on behalf of a child under smiliar circumstances. Brannock added that resumption of pay ment of pension may be made after the person's release from incarceration. Enforcement of the new law will be carried out by VA with the cooperation of federal, state, county and city law enforce ment authorities, Brannock said. Dorothy Brick lev. Denize Brumnc.
