' Comart. :':77'"" Dr. Harris Is Speaker Conservation of Eyei Topic Heard by Sor- optimists , ."; "Conservation of eyesight" aid Dr. Harris, In speaking to the Soroptlml.it club Thurs day, "Is tho first thing tha naw born babe experiences, and the last thing which la done for the aged by modern medicine. With proper precautions taken at birth, many eye ills are avoided, and with operations for cataracts the vision la fre quently extended until death." Dr. Harrl poke to an inter ested audience, basing hi talk on "Conservation of the Eyes," Asking members of the club If eyesight would not be the one of their senses which they would normally cling to most tenaciously, he received unanimous assent. He then startled them by the statement that eyesight was rated as secondary to the sense of touch, stating that our welfare depends more upon the sense of touch than upon the sense of sight. "The blind individual (s handicapped," said Dr. Harris, but If a person were deprived of the sense of touch even with the best of eyesight, his chances of living to a good old age would be materially les sened. Most of the automatic; actions of life are done by the sense of touch more than by vision, as witness the opera tion of a typewriter, a comp tometer, or the playing of a piano." Dr. Harris touched briefly on the strides made in con serving eyesight, citing in stances of earlier factory aid when pieces of steel were re moved from the eyeball by means of a powerful magnet, with little regard to injury of the tissues, while today every effort Is made to preserve the tissues and to retain the sight of the eye. Conservation of sight must not stop with the first -treatments given the new born babe but must be continued through life if the individual is to have the best that mod ern methods can offer him. Much depends upon diet and nutrition, with exercise, surg ery, and medicine each con tributing their part, the speak er pointed out. Mention waa made of various helpful or ganizations quietly doing much for this important work, among others being the Com mittee for the Prevention of Blindness. Several interesting discus sions were brought out by questions from the club mem bers, and, in answer to a ques tion, Dr. Harris touched upon color blindness, thought to be a handicap in aviation, telling that the colorblind aviator has one distinct advantage over others in that camouflage does not register with him, as he still sees things as they are, not as they are disguised, and he can point out to his com rades fortifications which may be invisible to them, v "There is no cure for color blindness since it is caused by an anatomical deficiency," , said Dr. Harris. Enjoying Dr. Harris' talk ' besides the local Soroptlmlsts were several visitors, Mrs. Zula Currin, Mrs. Mary Long and Senator Dorothy McCul lough Lee, a member of the Portland Soroptimlst club. Acting as chairman hostess, Lydia Fricke Howard Intro duced the speaker. Telegrams from the dele gates at the Cleveland conven tion were an interesting part of the program, and the musi cal numbers given by Mildred Buzaid, a. recent addition to the club, were much enjoyed. ...
