Gardening Council of New York that
this is the shipping season for nur-
sery stock orders”, Polacky said.
“Much of the stock is perishable,
and without the co-operation of the
purchasers, and delivering agencies,
best results cannot be expected.”

Department of Internal Affairs
has published a ‘Borough Secre-
tary’s Manual.”
The manual, which is the first
publication of its kind ever issued
by the Department, was prepared
in response to requests from the
Pennsylvania State Association of
Borough Secretaries and from many
individual Borough Secretaries, who
felt that such a manual would give
them practical guidance in meeting
the obligations of their office.
The manual was prepared by Dr.
John H. Vanderzell, who recently
resigned as Assistant Director of
the Bureau of Municipal Affairs to
resume his teaching duties at Frank-
lin and Marshall College, Lancaster.
Assisting Dr. Vanderzell with the
preparation of the manuscript were
other members of the Department,
personnel from several other State
agencies, several Borough Secretar-
ies, and representatives of the Penn-
sylvania State University and the
University of Pittsburgh Institutes
of Local Government,
The question and answer method
is used to present the data regard-
ing borough secretaries’ status, com-
pensation, and duties. A departure
has been in this publication from
the more conventional handbook
design by using a loose-leaf binder
to facilitate the insertion of new
material.

PTA Could Assist
In Pupil Screening
Dr. A. S. Lisses, Dallas optome-
trist and member of Harveys Lake
Lions, spoke to Swoyersville Lions
Club Wednesday evening on the
value of a school visual screening
program. Customary tests to de- |
termine vision at twenty feet, he |
explained, are too limited in scope.
Studies of many school children, |
he said, indicate that wisual prob- |
lems which interfere with success |
in reading may be lack of fusion,
difficulty in depth perception, im-
balance of muscles, and difficulty
in focusing.
Citing a recent survey of pupils
students had one deficiency in com-
Dr. Lisses is anxious to set up a
screening program which can be
carried out by members of the PTA
in collaboration with a school nurse,
referring special cases to eye men.
He showed. two instruments used to
detect visual deficiencies.
Bird Club Will Visit
Local Ridge Oct. 28
Members of Back =~ Mountain
Library Bird Club will visit Larks-
ville Mountain Sunday afternoon,
October 28, meeting at 1 p. m. at
the Acme parking lot in Dallas.
With migration of hawks at its
height, protected speties as well as
legitimate game are being shot in
great numbers by hunters in con-
cealed blinds. The mere presence
of bird-watchers at the site of this
slaughter helps greatly in reducing
the carnage.
‘“Pennsylvania’s Bloody Ridges,”
written by Maurice Broun for Na-
ture Magazine, issue for June-July,
1956, points up the improbability
of the average hunter’s recognition
of protected or unprotected birds.
Until the bird is fluttering down,
wounded or dead, the species is un-
known. It takes an ornithologist to
pick out distinctive markings when
the bird is on the wing.
