Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 39, Number 65, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 19 April 1907 — Examining Railroad Men's Vision. [ARTICLE]

Examining Railroad Men's Vision.

According to some new regulations the employes of the railroads in Prussia—which are government property—must have their eyesight tested when they enter the service, again when they enter another branch of work which makes greater demands on the eyesight and again when appointed to an official position. Besides this the eyesight must be tested anew every five years, at which time the men are also to be examined for ocular and constitutional affections and also for injuries to the head.
