Partieularly true is this of the sense of sight, most important of all to human comfort. When eyes grow dim, optical science must corne to their rescue. Supplemerntntary lenlses, expertly ground of glass and skillfully applied, must re-enfore those provided by Nature.1 1 Again, to eyes proven faulty at the morning or midday of if e, this co-operation of optics is even more vital, Many a defective child.has beeni placed on an equal footing with his school fellows by a right application of glasses, has been given the opportunities and pleasurable sensations wich f eowes him. Many aworkmnan has been transformed from inefficient to efficient, The immediate respoiisibility for this service rests with the Scientifically trained and well edu- cated Optometrist. The conscientious care and expert service given by our Registered Optome- trist, Mr. R. M. Mitchell, have buiilt for him and are steadily increasing a splendid practise of this wor- thy profession.

It was a fast game and the ice was good. Oshawa played btter combination than Bowmanville wbile Trew came across with several loue rushes wicbe netted goals. Hooper iwas Bowmanville's best and at times ibad Oshawa wonderiing 'wbere lie would ho next. Bowmanville hockey fans are gett- ing more interested in the junior senies eacb game as the youngsters now bave a strangle bold on tbe group leadership. Tboy had 'an easy vic- tory in Port Hope Tbursday' wben tbeyqwon from the bilîside team 7-2. Monday nigbt tboy wont ight into enemios' territory atl, Oshawa and came away -with anôther victory, 6-4, but it took 10 minutes extra play to aunex this gaine. This prnctically gives Bowinanville the gnoup honors as tboy must lose the three romain- iug games to tie the senies.
