During the last session of the Legislature a law was passed and approved by the Governor: (Act 10) defin ing Optometry and relating to the practice of Optometry in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This law was passed to protect the eyesight of the citi zens of the State, from being endangered by incompetent persons examining eyes and fitting glasses. According to this law every person who practices Op tometry in Pennsylvania must pass an examination, be approved by the Board of Optometrical Education, Examination and Licensure, and receive a certificate stating that the holder has been examined, is competent and qualified to practice optometry. Peddling from door to door or the establishment of temporary offices is specifically forbidden. The Governor in approving this law said "The con trolling motive in the present approval is my desire to drive the fakers and scoundrels who now prey upon the unsus pecting people, from the Common wealth." In accordance with the Spirit and Purpose of this Law the following Optometrists, who have received Official Certificates from the Board of Optometrical Education, Examination and Licensure, and who desire in every way to co-operate in protecting the public from imposters—will esteem it a favor to be NOTIFIED AT ONCE IF PEDDLERS OR SOLICITORS attempt to operate in a neighborhood.

BARRIiiBURG ££& TELEGRAPH SHIPPING CALLS FOR WIDER SCOPE ON OCEANSHORES Trade in Coal and Oil Held Back by Present Lack of Facilities By Associated Press Washington, Aug. 6. —Port and harbor facilities along the Atlantic, the Gulf and the Pacific must be ex panded two or threefold to provide lor the maximum service of the American merchant marine, now in the making, when once it is released from war iralHc. Immediate expan sion is necessar> at many ports so that coal for New Kngland war in dustries can be moved by water. These facts have been established in the preliminary study of port con ditions made by the recently created Port and Harbors >acilities Com mission of the Shipping Board, head ed by Edward F. Carry. Present fa cilities are shown to be inadequate, and in time new ports may be cre ated. New York and Boston harbors have been examined by the commis- and similar Investigation at all the larger ports of the country will be made soon by Mr. Carry and ex ports attached to the commission. They plan to make visits soon to the rapidly growing ports of the South. Inspection tours also will be made to obtain information on proposed new ports. Every dock and repair plant has lieen called on to answer a ques tionnaire regarding the type of its facilities, present condition, exact location, whether this location is ad vantageous for the most efficient handling of ships, the terms, rates and conditions on which ships are docked, the number of ships docked [in the last five years, the average I period each ship was in dock, and j a brief statement of the work done lon it. Special information also is ! sought regarding ports where coal land oil are handled. The coastwise trade in coal and | oil is perhaps the most important .that has been handicapped by in adequate facilities. At present, this trade is limited only by shipping and port facilities. The survey shows these ports taxed to capacity at pres ent. and in many instances overtaxed | and in almost all instances facint; serious congestion unless speedil.- expanded. The coastwise trade in coal and oil is perhaps the most important that has leen handicapped by in adequate facilities. At present, this trade is limited only by shipping and port facilities. This survey shows these ports taxed to capacity at present, and in many instances over taxed, and in almost all instances facing serious congestion unlest speedily expanded. New York harbor particularly it overtaxed, and some southern port:-, especially Galveston. New Orleans. Jacksonville and Charleston, need expansion. All southern ports, it u expected, will be enlarged becausi signs of congestion are already in sight. This condition results from heavy traffic being diverted by rail roads from overland routes north to southern ports either for ship ment north or to the West Indies and South America. The commission, besides its plant for port expansion, will consider thi diversion of imports and export; from northern to southern ports, particularly shipments to and from the Middle West, which now add to the troubles of congested railway.- along the North Atlantic seaboard and in Pennsylvania and Ohio. Re lief Is planned by transit through southern ports to railways and waterways. Trade with South American coun tries, which has increased enormous ly during the war, will be considered by the commission in relation to the ports of the South. The diversion of this trade, as also that of the Mi.'M'o West, is regarded as de n ".g vast increase of water ft futilities there. Enlargement of Pacific ports Is re garded necessary with the expan sion of trade with the Orient. Keystone Division Walks Over Dead Bodies of Foe in Their Advance Washington, Aug. s.—Following his statement Saturday to newspaper men in which he told of the enormous losses suffered by the retreating Ger man army the chief of staff declared that it was the Keystone division, Pennsylvania troops, who were forced to walk over the dead bodies of the foe because of the number. General March said: In front of the Pennsylvania Na tional Guard division, the 28th of the combined American Army, the soldiers could not advance without treading on dead Germans. This is told in General Pershing's confidential cable gram, which General March read to his newspaper auditors as follows: "An officer of General Muir's 28th Division, Just returned from Ferer en-Tardenois, reports that it does not seem possible for an army to have gathered as many guns, as much ammunition, as the Germans had abandoned in their retreat, which had been so hasty that they had not had time to bury their dead. The ground was so covered with corpses that It was impossible to advance without walking over them, and further, that the advance of the 28th division had been extremely rapid in spite of the fact that their position was some dis tance from the nearest railroad." It Is apparent from this dispatch that the victory of the French and Americans in the Rheims salient has been much greater than had been in dicated either in oVicial or press dis patches from the front. The report made by the officer of the Pennsyl vania National Guard shows that the German losses not only of men but of guns and ammunition must have been enormous. This report makes it plain that the enemy was not merely de feated, but routed in disorder. His flight was so precipitate thaat he did not have an opportunity to take along cannon and stupendous supplies of powder and shell. Knowledge of German carefulness in guarding war material and vaunted German effi ciency in matters make the rout all the more apparent and significant.
