A THREATENED SHORTAGE IN EYE GLASSES Optometrists are confronted with a condition which is becom ing so acute that heroic measures will soon be necessary. There Is a shortage In the pro duction of lenses for eye-glasses. This condition is not peculiar to the optical industry at this time. In fact we have been slow to feel the pressure which months ago made it necessary for other indus tries to notify their customers that deliveries could not be made with any degree of promptness. The impending condition will prove a hardship to wearers of aye-glasses in case of loss or break age because it may be impossible to replace broken lenses or fur nish new glasses on short notice. There is only one way to overcome the inconriroce of sucli a contingency and that is to HAVE AX EXTRA PAIR OF' GLASSES ON HAND Let me suggest that you should be prepared for such an emer gency, which may occur to you at *ny time, by having me duplicate the glasses you are now wearing, or by letting me examine your eyes for a new pair white I am prepared to supply them without any undue delay. You will probably save an ad vance in price and you will bo sure to have glasses which under other circumstances you may be compelled to go without for some time. Very truly With H. C.

S. Is Making Mistake in Phys ical Requirements Philadelphia, Aug. 6. "Those in charge of draft for the United States Army are making a mistake in their physical examina tions. They are virtually selecting an army of supermen. The ration of ex emption is much too high. They will be obliged to make a second combing of those that are being rejected." This Is the criticism of a British of ficer commissioned by his Government to recruit British subjects living in this country. What he said was en dorsed by a British surgeon with the rank of first lieutenant, who has had unique opportunities in comparing British and French physical exemp tions with the rejections made by American surgeons connected with the draft boards. * "The American selective draft." said the British surgeon, and for obvious reasons he must remain Incognito, "is eliminating' all but supersoldlers. Teeth must be perfect, vision of both eyes normal, all the limbs and their parts must be without maim or blem ish. In short, something close to physical perfection must be register ed. Too Many Kxemptlonn "As a consequence of this hyper critical examination, you are getting only about one of every two young men subject to the draft. In some sections the exemptions rise higher than 50 per cent. AVhen you come to take other exemptions for economic and other causes, out of the number of those who passed the physical exami nation, you will find sections with a scanty two out of every ten, or per haps one out of every ten. The con sequence will be that In order to gejt an army of 1,000,000 or 2,000,000, you will be obliged to sift and reslft your drafted men. Every repetition of the process will be costly and unnecessar ily so. "It will have been much better had ' • AUGUST 6,1917. you taken our experience or the ex perience of France as a foundation. We have a number of book rules to guide our physical Inspectors, but much Is left to our common sense. If we llnd a man with defective teeth, or a number of teeth missing,' we don't turn him down. We accept him and then send him t9 a dentist. After a little time, he comes to us an excel lent soldier. Accept Them With One Good K>e "We take a man whose vision Is good In his right eye. If he Is right handed, and whose left Is In good shape, if he Is left-handed. We have found It to be a mistake to reject right-handed men with defective vis ton In only the left eye, or vice versa. Ihese chaps can sight a gun and do all manner of soldiering quite as well as the chaps with two keen eyes. "Then there is the question of slight Injuries. A Newfoundlander came to our headquarters to-day. He had been turned down by your army in spectors and by the inspectors of your navy because the tlrst Joint of the little finger of his left hand was missing. We examined him, found him to be otherwise in tip-top shape and promptly accepted him for the British army. He was as fine a soldier in the raw as any I have seen. "We are taking men for various services up to 53 years of age. Be sides resiftlng your rejects, you will unquestionably be obliged to extend your age limit for drafted men." "And again there is the problem of the married men who are not' accept ed by the American army, while the British army takes them and makes provisions for the support of the wife and children. The British Govern ment when it accepts a married man for service makes htm put aside a cer tain amount of his monthly pay for the support of his dependants and then contributes a like amount which Is turned over to Ills wife. -In that way we make certain that a woman is taken care of when her husband en lists. and It makes the man a better soldier when he is certain that his loved ones are receiving enough money each month from the Govern ment to live comfortably. "I want to say most emphatically that If It was not for the married men of Britain who volunteered at the beginning of the war the Germans would have taken Paris lbng ago and probably would be In London now. Even now the married men In the ranks are the backbone of the British army."
