SEE of Eh CI BU Heredity determines to a large j extent the kind of eyes that a child will possess in starting its life. Strong eyes, like other physical characteristics, run in families. Study of the hereditary back ground of a child's eyes is of value to parents in helping shape a pro gram that will conserve and pro tect the child's vision its most precious possession. Although the human eye at birth is large compared with the size of the body, it increases dur ing life only three and one-half times in size, as compared with an increase of about 2 1 times for the entire body. During the first month of its life, an infant does not have very good vision, for the optic nerve is still developing dur ing that period; ana it is two months before the baby has learned how to control his eye muscles to see large objects. Chil dren normally are born far-sighted, and even at four months they are so far-sighted that they will not notice objects about an inch in size placed before them. Very young infants do not shed tears when they cry. The tear ap paratus does not start to function until several weeks after birth, and until the tears start to flow the eye is kept moist by tiny glands in the lining of the lids. Eyes of children do not become spherical until the age of six or seven years. By watching over and guarding the eyesight of their children, parents can aid in en riching immensely the lives of their offspring. Mrs. Laura Hollenbeck and Mrs. i Cora Gerbeling were Lincoln visit ors on Friday.
