BUFFALO, N. Tf., Aug. 2.-Dr. Lewis
C. Wcssets, ophthalmologist for the Phil
adelphla Board of Health, addressed th
fourth international congress on school
hygiene tofiay. ICn subject was the de
tective vision of school children from an
economic standpoint and he said In part:
"Medical Inspection of school children
has revealed the fact that at least 25 per
cent of nil children attending school have

"But few children remain In school

This fact emphasizes the necessity ot

Municipal fSiitnbllaktinents.
"The fact I wish to emphasize In this

tiles establishing their own eye dlspen- j
Baries for the refracting and the furnish- ;
Ing ot glasses to at least poor pupils. '
This is ah economic, problem rather than
a charity, as It reduces the cost of edu

the efficiency of both the pupil and tho
twusher."

New York school lunch committee, choso I
as her subject the relation of menus to

"Every child In our schools should be
taught that health Is only possible with
regular meals; not taugh It onco, but
repeatedly. Every mother, through moth

her own language, should be made to un
derstand that the school lunch Is simply
one way to make more possible regular

"Mind Making Through Sight Saving"
was the title of the paper read by Dr.
F. Park Lewis of Buffalo, who said;
4U children in whom near sight Is
beginning should be segregated into special
classes. The some curriculum could be
employed as for the others of the same
class, but for these boefc study should be
replaced by oral graphic Illustration and
