WARNS BRITONS <Cont!nii«‘<l from One) dark throats n e ot no avail an that Groat Britain intends to fight on to victory against any attack. Churchill was expected to address the House of Commons this afternoon in answer to the speech whi' ,. Hitler made yesterday threatening to "utterly erase" British cities. Usually well informed quarters said the Prime Minister was expected to say that this country remains upright, calm and resolved to fight to the end in the belief that it ran shatter German tyranny and restore freedom to t’ c world. It was expected that Churchill al so would speak on the trade of n Pi d) Western Hemisphere naval base; for American destroyers. There was considerable common - on what was called Hitler's strangdeclaration that he had waited Hirer months to answer in kind, the Roy al Air Force night bombings. Go man mass air raids were started > Britain June 18. There w'ere dnyligo raids. The Nazi night raids, it true, were started only recently hut the British Idea is firm tha they were started not because Hitl had "waited” but because he lost s many planes by day that his ai force could no longer stand Hr
st a'n.
'Hitler’s angry tone regarding British rails was believed lo contnr an implicit admission that tlmy h c been telling. Hitler’s fulminations against Hu British blockade were regarded intended primarily to convineo th. German people that Britain was t< blame for their hardships, and at* to curry sympathy In the United
States.
Again discussing the
naval base trade, the News Chronicle, liberal party organ, suggested today that Britain retail the Amer- | lean names of the destroyers. ■‘The 50 destroyers which we are about to receive from the United States are named for American naval officers and men and other notab’e ’itizens,” it sai l. “We suggest that f America is agreeable these names j should be retained. I "Then as the destroyers come in- | o service with the royal navy ani I begin to add to their record of fine ichievement they would provide a >w common interest between our j vo countries and a new reminder | hat our aims are the same.” I

This is the age when near-sighted-ness is most likely to develop, a condition which must be treated early for best results. “Just as the attention given to the child's teeth and diet in the teething period determines the character of the teeth for the remainder of his life so does the attention given to the child’s eyes and his general health during that formative period develop
better eyes."

Rawley and Stewart, Brazil attorneys representing Clarence M. Boley in condemnation proceedings brought about by the effort of the state highway commission to condemn some of the land on the N.itionrd road in Washington township, have filed exceptions to the report of the appraisers who viewed the land involved in the condemnation.
