-Give your child a fair chance Before the children begin school work ; be sure they are under no handicap of vision. Have the eyes examined at Clinton's. Then you will know the exact condition of the children's eyes. Glasses will not be advised unless they are needed to make the printed page or blackboard writing clearer. The only way you can be sure your child is getting a fair chance in school is to have the eyes examined by an expert eye specialist. Clinton's optometrist is such a specialist, especially trained in examining children's eyes. CLINTON, Graduate Optician, At Uio Sign or tlio Big Itlng. 4- DR. 0. H.

Neb, A' Sermon On Lumber In conclusion my friends, we can't get away from this lumber question. Why, every one of us spent our first days in a cradle made of lumber. Our lives have been lived between walls of two by fours and lath, with rafters over our heads, and matched flooring beneath our feet. We have been sitting in wooden chairs, eating from wooden tables, riding in wooden wagons, and in the course of time will be laid to rest in wooden caskets. Lumber is King In the Construction World.
