The Latest Means Adopted by
Enginemen for the Protection
of the Eyes
One of the latest means adopted
by many Lehigh Valley engineers
for the protection of the eyes is the
use of the automobile goggles.
The goggles are not by any means
handsome affairs but the manner
in which they are constructed
afford excellent protection against
cinders and dust and therefore a
large number of engineers have
and wear them only whiie on duty,
As is well known the perfect cons
dition oi an engineer's eyes is one
of the important factors and he
must take every precaution to keep
his vision clear. The automobile
goggle 1s said by the engineers
to be the best means of protection
that they have yet found. This
morning a local optician stated
to a Record representative that he
had disposed of a great many of
the goggles during the past winter
dnd that the engineers were rapidly
becoming favorably impressed with
their utility,
