waste—because the vision of em-
ployes is not conserved. Of 10,000
workers examined in factories and
commercial houses 53 per cent were
found to have uncorrected faulty
eyesight Of the rejections in the
army during the war 21.7 per cent
were because of eye trouble. Men
and women cannot do their best
work when thus handicapped.
Proper illumination is suggested
as one of the ways in which im-
« provement can be effected. That it
pays to have the workshop ade-
quately lighted has been shown by
the experience of several factories
mentioned by the committee. Bet-
terment of the lighting system has
Increased output 2 per cent in steel
plants and as much as 10 per cent
in shoes factories. One estimate is
that the loss in production due to
faulty eyesight is greater than the
entire cost of illumination in this
country and it is asserted that the
cost of providing proper lighting
in every industrial plant in the
United States would be less than 1
per cent of the wages paid.
Such a loss as the committees at-
tributes to bad eyesight is not to be
ignored; and if it can be avoided
by so comparatively small an ex-
penditure as is Indicated it is down-
right stupidity to permit it to con-
tinue.

But to pay men of learning and
influence the meager salaries indi-
cated by the above casts upon any
community the reproach of indif-

low tuitions, too. put upon either
the community or the student body
the reproach of getting something

who pays for free education? And
the only conclusion must be that
by lack of support the community

Big and Bad
The recently published British
c i n s u s announcement, which
ascribes to Greater London 7,476,-
- 148, has given rise to a question the
answering of which will afford many
people a good deal of amusement.
It seems that New Yorkers, and
•ven some people outside of the
Empire state metropolis, are en-
deavoring to wrest from London the
distinction of being the largest city
in the world.
New York City's population is i
•mailer than London's, we are told,
for the simple reason that the latter
has included more suburbs in Its of-
flea! counting. If it is a question
of merely including suburban pop-
ulation in the census, it would seem
that the question ought to be easily
settled; with Pittsburgh and Buf-
he falo and Philadelphia, and possibly
2 Toledo and Cleveland to fall back
B on for census recruits, New York
r ’City ought to win in a walk
0e The question is all tangled up.
■ however, with considerations as to
just what is to be included in the
designated London. There are, it
seems, three Londons. The so-
called city of London has - only a
population of 25,000. Then there is
what may be called plain Loondon.
The population of this municipality
10 unknown; things weren’t figured I
A Gloomy Prophet
The unemployment situation in
England, disturbing as it has been
for months, is steadily growing
worse without anything substantial
in preparation to meet it.
But Sir George Paish, who has
some reputation in the United King-
dom as a financier and economist,
says the worst will not arrive until
next year. He prophesies that the
number of idle will be double that
of the present, a situation difficult
to imagine unless one chooses to
see in Sir George’s reasons an ex-
planation for his gloomy prediction.
The main one is that Russia re-
mains prostrate because of unintel-
ligent action by the other nations
and that British recovery cannot be
expected until Russia is once more
on her feet. *
Whether Sir George’s interest in
some branch of Russian trade has
influenced his prophetic vision may
be a question without inflicting in-
justice upon him, but his insistence
upon Russian restoration as the
prime essential may be a hint as
to the source of his inspiration. Un-
doubtedly the collapse of Russia
has had its share In the general ef-
fect, but the breawdown every-
where was so general that it is
over-stressing a factor to select
Russia as the pivotal point of world
recovery from the effects of a situa-
tion that is without parallel. If the
number of idle in England increases
until a year hence the total is dou-
ble that of today, the inference may
easily be that England next year !
will be worse off than the Russia
of today. Sir George may be sin- i
cere, but probably mistaken.
There was a reporter named Chol-
mondely
Who managed to write very bol-
mondely:
The typesetters panned him
Till the editors < anned him
But he sat there and took it all dol-
mondely.
And the people gladly told him
that ths reason that they wept
Was because the man had given of
tbs riches others kept;
And that brief obituary had a gold-
en line like this;
"His life was spent in friendship
and hea one the town will
mis.
