A year ago, approximately 69,900 Hoosiers were out of work. • Indiana’s seasonally adjusted un- ■ employment rate for October was 3.8 per cent.

IsSJliiraoSfeS Health inn SQUINT Strabismus, also known as squint or crossed eye, rarely disappears without treatment, although many parents are inclined to hope that their child will out- ‘ grow this defect. The motion of an eyeball is. directed by a set of six muscles. These muscles enable the eye to be turned in a wide range. When these ‘ muscles are of uneven strength the eyeball is not held in the direction of vision but turns inward or outward. The cross-eyed Infant or child tends to suppress the turned eye to prevent seeing double. This continuous suppression leads to a decrease of vision in the turned eye. While some cases of strabismus are treated by glasses or exercises, surgery is now the preferred treatment, to be performed as early as diagnosis can be established. Early surgery can improve the function of the crossed eye, >and will eliminate a cosmetic defect which could be a source C? serious personality problems.
