Lord llalifax may lute around the portfolio of Foreign Secretary in the Cabinet of Rt. I-loii. Neville Chamberlain, but almost every day brings further evidence that M1". Chamberlain, himself. in person, is his own Foreign Secretary. The present Prime Minister of Great Britain has kept most of his col- leagues and professional advisers in the dark. while he carried on diplomatic business of far-reacliln importance. Take that persona letter to Mussolini last. summer, tlie- mission on which he sent; Hall- fax‘ lo Berlin and the moves to- w-ai-d an Anglo-Italian treaty that led 1o Anthony Eden's resignation as Foreign Secretary at the end of last February. And in the recent conversations with Germany re- garding Czechoslovakia and the general European set-up, Mr. Chamberlain has been at it. again. —Hai"rison 1n Windsor Star.

Cats and birds, as we all know, do not happily consort to- gether (though occasional friend- ships liave been recorded); but no species uf bird has quite such a polemlcnl hatred of the cat as the blackblrd. One of my neigh- bors suw a blackbircl actually at- tack a cat and finally perch on its back to the end of better pecking. A charming story of this hostil- ity reaches me from Klngham. A garden there has been very care- fully ivired against cats and the birds are very tome. One hen blackbird which has brought off a. succession of broods spends a good deal of time looking in at the kitchen. its chief source of supply foi- the hungry family. 'I‘lie other clay it vras heard making angry noises, and when the owner of the garden was attacted, the bird flew i11 short; stages. looking back at. each stop. tlll it; reached the gate. Immediately outside prowled the cal that had roused the black- bii-ds zinger. though wire and gate still kept it a safe distance. If the bird consciously drew hu- man attention to the approach- ing danger, we must Judge the blrd to be as intelligent on occasion a: tlie clog, which certainly will call {non to its aid. —I.ondon Specta-

Among London's American vis- itors tire two New England lad- les who will have much w say to their bank manager ln their home town about their diverting experiences in London ln spend- ing some old slxpences and shil- lings which before stilling they obtained through lilm from a Bos- ton brink. Of 20 shillings most of them were of the reign of George III. A few ivc-rc early Victorian. The sixpences (40 ln number) ln-

cluclecl some of Wlllliim IV. The Americans had expected. when thcv bought ten dollars‘

w-nrtli of English shillings and slx-

pctices, to obtain coins usually seen in circulation in England. Instead. they received the residue of a sort of Rip Van Winkle hoard. badly tarnished. A bus conductor ivas the only person encountered unready to accept a

Wllllnm IV slxpenee of 1834. and nll he said was "If you've got a younger one I'd like to have it." A po1"tt-1- at Waterloo thanked them for two George III shillings, but hurried nff to crnsult a mate. At several shops the visitors ‘were

asked to wait. imtll the manager had been consulted. A taxtmnn who was offered n Georgi- III

shilling and a William IV slxpence lnlong with some modcrns did not restart his eab until he had rubbed itlu- old coins on his trousers and sc-iwitinizctl them closely. These to1i1"l.-<ts had a lot of fun for their money-Manchester Guardian.

THE INVISABLE EYEGLASSES _CON'l‘ACT LENSES

fi J-oe l9. mum MD.

You may be hearing and "r6861- lng about the new ‘invisible eye- glasses or contact leases as they are called. Perhaps you dislike wearing glasses Wllll rims because you lose them at times. they get in the way, are dangerous when playing any game. or because they ‘spoil’ your appearance. You may therefore get the idea that you would like to try these ‘contact lenses.

They are called contact lenses because the outer portion rests upon or is in contact with the white pai"t (not the centre. of see-

or fit your particular type of de- fective eyesight —short.siglil.edness. Jongsightedness, astigmatism 1.1m": of light. do not reach a s: point), nystagtnus 1oyr-s mov ii.’ from side to side) and tipllflklfl (no lens whatevci" in eye).

Before purchasing the contact glasses you should have your phy- sician refei" you to one possessing the knowledge of your require- ments and skilled in the fitting of these particular glasses.

Dr. Alexander G. Ft-ivell, Phil- adelphia , in the Pennsylvania Medical Journal states:

“Contact glns s musi. rest on the sclera. (ey-eballl in such a manner that no pressure is produced. When too tight the eyeball becomes iii- flamed and there is a flow of tears (epiphorn). If the fit ls too loose, the salt solution with which the lens has been filled before placing it in the 03c. leaks out and bub- bles foi-m interfering with vlslon. The centre or corneal part must not rest on the centre of the eye- ball."

The length of tlnie that contact; glasses can be w-orn varies with different individuals; some can wear them for only three hours. others as long ns B hours‘ at a

me. The actual fitting of contact glasses requires time. patience and experience. All patients should be first tested by the usual methods. The head ls bent. forvrrird and the shell ls griipsed by a small rubber suction bulb and filled with salt: solution. The lids tire separated by thumb and forefinger of the left: hand and shell inserted first be- neath lower lld and then the up- per lld. The bulb ls then removed !by releasing pressure. The patient soon learns how to do this.

A. great disadvantage at the .present tlme_as Dr. Fevroll points out ls the price. Each lens is prlc- ed at Thirty-five to Fifty Dollars deflflldlrig on the correction and the type.
