Better Vision Scientifically Achieved . We especially desire to impress upon parents the handicap under which a child with defective vision labors in school work. The brain does not function at its best when knowledge, to be carried by the eye, is imperfectly conveyed. In an effort to see distinctly the child with even a slight astigmatism suffers weariness and often pain and all this trouble may easily be obviated by proper eyeglasses. As an average, one child out of every four or five, has defective vision susceptible to improvement. It cost# but a trifle to know whether your child is the “one.” Our optometrists will welcome the opportunity to inform you of conditions and to prescribe glasses to overcome them if abnormal. “Our aim and our accomplishment is all the vision possible."

More than one thousand persons took part in the homecoming and carnival in Eastern avenue. Tenth to St. Clair streets. Saturday evening. Six hundred Japanese lights were suspended on ropes across the avenue and nearly every one of the sixty houses displayed the American flag. These, with street lights and all porch lights on, many in colors, made the avenue a bower of beauty. The community prides itself on sociability. and neighborliness and every one made it a point to become acquainted with some one that recently moved to the avenue. Scores of former residents and friends made merry with the home folks. W. R. Wag borne, war camp community leader, directed a few songs. There were races for the children and dancing for the grownups, ranging from the Virginia reel to the shimmay. Music was provided by two jazx bands. Music boxes, piano players and pianos also were at work at various times. Many persons were in costume and the carnival spirit reigned supreme. There are sixty houses on the avenue, and with only live or ten exceptions each resident ownq his own home. GERMANS WISH UR BACK, IS HER ASSERTION WOMAN TELLS OF CONDITIONS IN DEFEATED COUNTRY.

Not a Topic Now. They are telling a good one on a clerk in the office of John W. Cravens, registrar at Indiana university. It seems the registrar is a fancier of fine hogs and he spends many leisure hours on his farm near Mooresville admiring the prize members of the swine family. Cravens likes to tell of his prize-winners and sometimes, after hours, even describes them to members of bis clerical force. The demure, little clerk took a week-end visit to a home of a friend on a farm near Lafayette. While there she saw a $10,000 prize hog. On returning to the office Monday morning she happened to think that Registrar Cravens might be interested. “Oh. what do you think.” said the demure one to Mr. Cravens. “I saw a $10,000 hog yesterday.” “That so?” Interjected Cravens. "What—.” “And when I saw him I thought of you, and decided to tell—.-” Hogs are not a topic of conversation in the registrar’s office jusj now. May Have to Start Mine.
