However, make no mistake about this: Far better use no glasses at all than imperfect lenses or glasses which do not properly correct the vision. There are millions of lens combinations and only the trained practitioner can decide just which lenses are best for your eyes. In every city will be found numerous proficient optometrists and oculists whom you may safe ly trust with your most precious possession, your eyes. Do not hesi tate to consult such a one at intervals not exceeding two years and be assured that if, in select ing the person who is to ex amine your eyes, you are guid ed by a desire for high grade service, rather than seductive low prices, no glasses will be prescribed unless the examiner feels that he would do you an injury by permitting you to go without them. There may have been a time, back in the old days of so-called free examinations, when glasses were prescribed whether or not they are needed; but today, all ethical practitioners charge a fee for examination, sufficient to pay them for the time expended and every ethical proficient prac titioner is glad to be able truth fully to tell all patient that glass es are unnecessary. Take care of your eyes and your eyes will take care of you. (This article, clipped from the Cleveland Press, is furnished through the courtesy of Dr. W. A.

Weather Delay* Trout Planting The hatchery department of the state game commission is anxiously awaiting a break in the weather so that trout plant ings may be made in many Ore- gon streams. The heavy snow will hold up the work of plant- ing more than two weeks, but anglers need have no fears as the trout in hatchery ponds are well ( fed and increase more rapidly | in size than they would in I streams.

Wild Turkey Popular The wild turkey bids fair to become a popular game bird in Oregon, according to Harold Clifford, state game warden. A considerable number of these birds are being raised at the game farms in Eugene, Corvallis, and Pendleton. Turkeys have been liberated in Polk, Clacka- mas, Umatilla, Wallowa, Wasco, and Curry counties. Twelve were released in Clackamas county early last spring and by fall this number had increased to more than 50. Sportsmen in all sec tions where liberations have been made are co-operating' with the game commission to prevent il- Approximately $400,000 is re ceived annually by the Oregon state game commission from hun ters, anglers and trappers. This money goes to support the 29 hatcheries and egg taking sta tions, the three game farms and the law enforcement and the ex ecutive departments of the com mission. The commission is en tirely self suporting and receives no money from legislative appro priations.
