greatest events that has happened in

the large company who heard him,
which included the coaches and team

Coach Johnson went on to say that
football players must be obedient -at
all times and that Coach Bocock’s
course will help football both in the
high schools and the colleges. He
said that the Carolina coach’s insist

Coach Johnson was given a rous
ing reception when he was introdweed,
the Rotarians singing, “For He’s a
Jolly Good Fellow.” He said that for
the past ten years he has tried Ho
instill in his players at the Presby
terian College of South Carolina the
spirit of fighting hard and winning
clean. The old style football was
rough and tumble, but now the little
man has as much chance as the big,
for now brain is required as well as
brawn. He highly praised Coach
Couch of the Greenville High School,
having known vand played with him
some years ago in Michigan. A foot
ball coach in his sympathies and con
tacts must be one of the boys. He
said that this year one-third of the
! student body at P, C. went out for
football. It is the fighting spirit which
makes a good team. Players must
hit hard and clean to win. From 70
to 90 per cent of success in football
is the will to fight hard. Clean foot
ball will uphold the game and elevate
its standard. Clean tactics on the
gridiron must be encouraged.
Coach Johnson told of meeting this
summer “Red” Grange, the famous
Illinois football player, and described
him as a clean-cut fellow of clean
habits. Football players should have
the spirit that Roosevelt exhibited
when he was shot in Milwaukee. He
insisted on keeping his engagement to
speak to the people, before attention
was given to his serious wound.

A CATARACT, as everyone knows.
is a thickening and hardening of
the crystalline lens in the eye. TuN
body, located In the front of the cv-
Is just the same as the object lens
In a kodak. It is the lens by which
the light rays, entering the eye, are
concentrated and focused so that the
image falls on the retina, which is the
film or plate. In front of the lens is
the iris, a colored substance made up
of fine and delicate muscle fibres.
These fibres are sensitive to light, con
tracting under strong ’light so as to
shut part of It off and dilating in a
dim light or In the dark so as to let
in all the light possible. The round
opening in the center of the Iris is
the pnpll, which looks black because
there is no Tight .behind it. The eye
lid Is the shutter.
If the object lens of yonr camera
was made of ground glass so that the
light couldn't get through, you couldn't
get a very good picture. So when
the crystalline lens In the eye becomes
dense, .thlclT and opaque, sight is in
terfered with. The lens turns whits
and looks as though it bud been boiled.
Finally it becomes so dense that no
light can pass and the patient Is
practically blimi, although the ‘'■eye
could see iwrfectly if only the light
could get through. In.such cases, for
thousands of years, surgeons have re«
moved the lens and so enutled the
patient to see again.
What causes this hardening of the
lens nobody knows. It Is commoner
in old age than In young life. It is
more frequent in those exposed to
great heat and strong light, ns steel
puddlers, glass blowers ami bottle
makers.
Since the‘development of electricity,
it has been found that severe electri
cal shocks or burns are apt to be fol
lowed by cataract. In a recent if*ne
of the Journal of the American Medi
cal Association, two San Frut^Js^o
j oculists, Dr. W. S. Franklin and Dr. F.
! C. Cordes, review the cases report-#
of cataract caused by # electrical burns.
In 1897 a iwoman telegrapher in Aus
tria was strncK by lightning. She was
severely burned on the face. TVwo
months later she developed cetaruct
in both ey?:s.
celved a shock
was no burn but cataract soon fol
lowed. Since then a number of cuses
have been reported, so thut either
severe burns or fehock from electrical
currents are now recognized aq
causes for this jpysteridu* disease.
