Are You
“Hard of Seeing-?”
A great many people are.
We mean that. It is the same
is a person who has “nerve
deafness” In the ears, and can-
lot help it much wdth a hear-
ng aid. The eye nerves lose
unction, too.
Most people have very little
trouble with the nerve of the
eyes, and glasses correct the
defects of the “window of the
eye” (cornea and lens) for the
first 65 years of their lives.
Then hardening of the arteries
advances to the
blood pressure
small blOod
tions) and destroys functional
tissue, replaces it with scar
tissue that is non-functional.
This impairs nerves, and visual
cortex centers of the brain
causing a dimming of the vis-
ion that glasses cannot restore.
Fortunately the patient
doesn’t miss it if he goes every
two years and keeps the eyes
fitted 100% because it is so
gradual. But those who goof
are the ones who trust their
own judgment and continue to
use the glasses too long. They
often become angry and "diffi-
cult” because the doctor cannot
restore youth. But with a little
intelligence and a little pati-
ence, most people keep a prac-
tical vision as long as they
live.
High blood pressure Is the
greatest destroyer of all—
never t*lax your vigilance, or
you may be the next to go.
Regular clinical examinations
are always suggested when we
find your eyes are affected by
body disease.

October Furniture Sale! I
Lone Star Steel’s first
lady, “Flossie Belle,” has
her name in the news be-
cause of her beauty shop
visit.
The facelifting for
“Flossie Belle” isn’t quite
like a shampoo and set,
however.
SNe’s the big blast
furnace which turns out
more than 2,000 tons of
molten iron daily. And
jight now the grand ole
gal of LSS is out of action
to be prettied up. Lone
Star has been stockpiling
iron for some time anti-
cipating the overhaul.
The last cast of iron
was taken from her Oct.
10 and she will be out of
action for about 40 days
for her “re-line.”
Burden (iron ore, lime-
stone, coke and dolomite)
and slag inside her huge
stomach were removed
after cooling. A 19-hour
cycle of cooling with wa-
ter was required since
temperatures inside the
furnace reach in excess of
3,000 degrees.
After this, in the re-
lining sequence, the ole
^als belly lining of old
^Klly children that she
talMpit in the-classes at Bibfct
Mudy at the Church, where
she wu a faithfull attendant
as' long as her health permit-
ted.
She was named to Ivan
Foster In Saltillo on Septem-
Bm1*] u One •on' Johnny’sid!Tf Mt’
Vernon and presently in
school at East Texas State
University, also survives; one
son having died in infancy.
---"2“ —1 son,
Mrs. Foster is survived by her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Sid
Strickland of Mt. Vernon; and
four sisters, Mrs. R. B. Cates
and Girtrue Strickland, both
of Mt. Vernon, Mrs. John G,
Ross of Providence, Rhode Is-
land, and Mrs. Malcolm Brid-
ges of Magnolia. Arkansas.
Pallbearers were R. B. Carr,
Gerald Stanley, Harold Step-
henson, Charles Skidmore,,
Frank Hicks, and Joe Black.
Interment was In the Fair-
view Cemetery under the dir-
ection of the Sam B. Harvey
Funeral Home.
