for the Indiana Lions Eye Bank at the Indiana University School of Medicine’s Department of Ophthalmology in Indianapolis. Although it is a year-round program, this month, Hoosiers will have a special opportunity to help the Lions secure signed pledges from individuals willing their eyes, after death, for use in transplantation, reasearch into the diseases of the eyes and for the teaching of future ophthalmologists. The Indiana Lions Eye Bank, established in 1968, is recognized nationally as a leader among the accredited eye banks in operation in the United States. Lions Clubs of the state not only provide the funding necessary for the continued success of the eye bank, but also provide the necessary manpower for the network of 83 eye collection centers that blanket the state. The eye collection center in Kosciusko County and its chairman is Dr. Richard L. Carman, 1316 Country Club Road, Warsaw. There is never a charge either to the donor or recipient of human eye tissue in transplant operations. All eyes are valuable to an eye bank and any person may donate his eyes — age is not a factor. Those with poor eyesight, even the blind, may pledge their eyes, ami diseased eyes are as valuable to research to determine cause of blindness as healthy eyes are for tissue transplantation. To be usable, the tissue must be removed and transported to the eye bank immediately after the death of the donor, pointing up the need for public cooperation in signing and carrying donor pledge cards so the prospective donor’s wishes may be known at

Cfcorfio Harris l Gary Eastkmd St. Augustine once wrote that "Will is to grace as the horse is to the rider". It is grace that must come first, then, and provide us with our direction. Too often, of course, it is easier to be ungraceful. Our lives ore full of problems, difficulties and uncertainties. With grace, however, things become easier. And whot is grace? Some say it is a gift of God; some that it is o gift we owe ourselves. With it, we can change our lives, make them happier, subjugate our will and let it take us on fine journeys. Grace; it has come to us and we must be ready to receive it! To carry on through life's odversities we must, at times, pause, reflect and reaffirm the direction in which we head. Emotional moments such as when the loss of a loved one occurs is just such a time. At HARRIS FUNERAL HOME, SR 13 and CR 1000 N. we realize this and are sensitive to the feelings and needs. We offer the facility, services and personalized attention to help you pause as well as refocus on the road of life ahead. Tel. 457-3144. Available 24 hours.
