An instrument that “reads” the power of eye-glass lenses is used to check all prescriptions at the optical department of the William H. Block Co. Checking the power of lenses with the “lensometer’” requires less than a minute but the work is done with great accuracy. The lensometer can be used to determine the strength of lenses in case glasses are broken and only a small piece of lense is left.

After the lenses are checked for focus, they are carefully marked for the cutter. Lenses are first cut with just a margin of glass to spare and then trimmed with metal patterns as guides to the exact size and shape wanted. Making lenses fit frames of unusual shape is accomplished by molding new wire patterns. The lensometer is used by Dr. R. J. Weldon, who is in charge of the optical department, after testing the eyes to learn if there is enough difference to mean new glasses. Lenses also must be checked with a strong light to see

Colt club shows held throughout Indiana since the clubs were started in 1926, according to P. T. Brown, Purdue university extension horse specialist. From the local shows, many Indiana farm raised %olts have gone to the state fair and the international livestock exposition, he said. The Hoosier Gold Medal Colt club has been operated on the principle that showring competition stimulates better feeding, better management, and the use of superior sires, Mr. Brown said. Many well-known present day breeders got their start in colt club shows, and numerous stallions have reached prominence through recognition received when their colts consistently topped local Gold Medal classes.

The seasonal increase in he number of hired workers, how@yer, compared favorably with the change in 1942, the rate of increase being lower only in the middle Atlantic and east north central regions. Increases in factory employment are most marked in the heavy wa industries, particularly in trangportation equipment. The gain of 110,000 during March brought the total number on factory payrolls to above 16 million for the first time. Manufacturing has been so expa ed that it now employs more w ers than the aggregate personnel in all of manufacturing, construction, mining, transportation and publ utilities in 1939.
