Parents urged to follow up on vision tests The following information is from the office of the Director of public schools: The vision screening program conducted throughout the county this school year has been sur veyed by school personnel to determine its effectiveness. Complete results are not yet in, but to date the survey shows figures: 330 children were asked to consult a vision specialist; 164 children have been examined thus far; 99 children, of those who have been examined, re ceived glasses for the first time. Thus approximately 60 per cent of the children examined have been fitted for glasses. Of the number examined, a few children are being treated for vision problems that glasses alone cannot correct, and a number of others were already wearing glasses that required corrective fittings. The data above indicates that well over 150 children have not yet been to their doctor, and parents who received notices are urged to see that their children visit a professional vision spec ialist as soon as they can. The relatively small expense of the examination might well prove to be a valuable investment in a child’s educational future. RECEIVES SUPERIOR CADET DECORATION Michael W.
