Wherever the voters had an opportunity to express themselves they proved that they were- too intelligent to bo deceived by the temporary prosperity which is resulting from huge war orders and that ihej keenly ap- i predate that there can be no sato a enduring prosperity until machinery of the goveiiimeut is once more in tho hands of those who are I t.0iind on the tariff question and competent to handle financial affairs of the nation Massa-husetts, New Yirk.

The Progressive Return LETTERS FROM THE I A In all the states where elections were held the fact that tho Progressives had returned to the Republican tfold was manifested. There are, por- haps, no voters who study politics more closely than the msn who followed Theodore Roosevelt out into the political -wilderness and there is no class of men. from their leader down, who have been so thoroughly disgusted with.

Democratic maladmin- istration. The large majority of those followed Mr. Roosevelt in 1912 did so, of coarse, with the hope of electing him President and with no puppoae to inflict on the country a Democratic Administration, but few of them appreciated how unfortunate be the results if that should bo tlie result of their breaik with tho O. O. P.

They realize it now, however, to a very marked degree and thoro is manifestly no danger whatever that they will repeat their mistake next year. They have, moreover, gained something in returning to the Republican partj, for they have been cordially welcomed back and there is no doubt that tho general trend of tho Republican party will be nioro progressive from now on, as a result ol the loyal support it is receiving from its whilom opponents I CONCERT. Editor Times-Press: May we, through the courtesy of your columns, answer the many inquiries regarding the auspices of tho concert to be in Eagle Hall on Wednesday evening, Nov. 10. This concert is not for the benefit of any organization.

We have taken it upon ourselves to give the mualc- lovlng public of this city the opportunity of hearing artists high up In their art, and we feel our city is musical onough and this recital attractive enough to warrant an audience sufficient in size to meet expenses without the support of an organization. Jllddletown IB worthy of concerts of tho highest standard and it 13 our hope that the patronage will encourage cur ambition to promote them. Yours truly, David "Walsh, Wm. H. Tremper, Wm.

C. Herbert. --Rochester Herald. Do You Need Glasses? PUBLIC HEALTH HINTS Prepared Each Week For the Readers cf This Newspaper by the New York State Department of Health. HE human eve is a instrument, but--at least under the trying conditions of modern life--it often fails to meet the demands we put upon it, and serious troubles of all sorts result because we do not help it out by getting glasses to SUPPLY NATURE'S DEFECTS.

Particularly at the time when children begin their SCHOOL LIFE the new and difficult uses made of the eye often bring on eye strain and a host of resultant disorders. The signs of beginning eye strain may he quite different in different cases. At first only a slight fatigue may.be noticed after reading or sewing. The eyes may water easily or the eyeball may become bloodshot or the evelids red. Some persons whose eyes are overtaxed show it bynerv- ousness and others by drowsiness after the eyes have been used.

HEADACHES of all sorts and even attacks of vertigo may be merely the symptoms of eye trouble. The eye has a remarkable power, called the power of ACCOMMODATION. When you look from a distant object; to a nearby one you. notice that it takes a few seconds to focus the eye so that you can see it clearly. Little muscles are contracting and changingfcthe shape of the eye to adjust it to the different distance, somewhat as you change the focus of attorney, George H.

Decker, for the a camera according to the nearness of the object'to be photographed. If 1 services rendered us during- the eye is abnormal in anv respect these muscles have to work too hard, and, even though we may by this unconscious effort be able to see clearly, yet THE STRAIN is there all the time. i -vrrn inery gave out, which would necessitate new, so it has been decided that new and separate building must be erected which will serve as a laundry and which, will large enough and contain machinery sufficient to do the work required when the new hospital building is completed. A large of money will 'be needed when our plans for "are carried, out but we feel assured the citizens of Mlddletowu will respond to a call for funds ae generously as they have responded in the past we will haie a building which will be supplied with the best and most modern means for medical and surgical work, and of which the city of Allddletown will be proud. IJriug; the year two valued members of our Advisory Board have passed away: Daniel H.

Bailey and Jesse W. Cantield. These men have been associated with our work since Its origin and ever stood ready to glA'e of their time and counsel and we have reason to mourn their loss. F. D.

A. L. Wheeler, left at the completion of his year's work and Dr. Hal Cleveland, of the Vanderbilt University, was appointed to nil the vacancy. The Board of Managers wishes to express its grateful appreciation to the following: To our staff of physicians and surgeons who have given so faithfully and liberally of their time and skill for the xellef of the sick and afflicted To the superintendent, Miss M-nCow an, and her corps of hard working nurses who stand ready night and day to care for thp suffering and give aid to the injured.

To the "Thimble Chanty" the "As You Like it Club" and the "Lenten Sewing Club" the members' of which have worked untiringly with their needles to keep the hospital supplied with the necessary linen and articles of apparel so needed in a hospital and which are constantly wearing out- To the generous friends who always respond liberally on donation day and at other times during the year with cash donation and all the necessities that are appreciated by the sick. A list of these donors will be found in the annual report. To the editors of the dally newspapers for many courtesies extended to the hospital, and also for their generous donation of newspapers so eagerly read by the convalescing.

Respectfully, WILLIAM Campbell Hall, Nov. 5. glasses were-provided to correct the defect of vision they would do this work for us and save all the strain.

Many a miserable hour the future would be saved by doing this in time. A careful and thorough examination of the eyes should be made. In order to do this properly it is often necessary to put "DBOPS' into the eye, drugs which relax the little muscles and put the whole eye into its normal state so that one can see what the condition of the eye is when it is relieved from strain. Tho effect of properly adjusted glasses upon happiness and efficiency is often almost miraculous. It is not at all uncommon to find a child in school who has been dull and fretful and backward without any one guessing the reason.

An examination of the eyes reveals serious defects, and glasses correct them. The whole nature of the child and its place in the school community change. Glasses or no glasses, there are some things that cannot be done with the eyes except at grave peril. TOO LITTLE LIGHT strains the eyes, and so does TOO MUCH. A direct glare right in the face is quite as bad as a room that is too dim to see properly.

For reading, sewing or other work which requires close and accurate vision the light should be clear and steady and should come from ABOVE and BEHIND. SING SING FIGHT WILL BE PROBED The New York "World," which, reason of its enthusiastic biipport of the Administration, is generally accurate regarding the plans, announces that President Wilson is seeking some method he -can surrender ex-ProsIdont Huerta to Carranza, that he may be executed for the murder of Madoro Of course, the constitution prohibits oxtraditlon for political crimes, but "Thp World" declares that "because of the enormity of the crime" a v.n.5 may lip found--found to circumvent tho constitution of the United States, i Mr. Wilson has sworn to uphold.

Ghosts are Numerous at This Party The Hallowe'en social last evening, one lon(; to be remembered by the members and Invited friends of the Christian Endeavor Society of the Webb Horton Memorial Church. Judging from the members present, ghosts the real attraction and when there large ghosts, small ghosts and medium sized ghosts, It all the more perplexing. The social committee deserves! ed, having spent a most enjoyable evening. Next month, the committee has planned to have a diving exhibit in tho swimming pool, to which all are invited.
