It ig the preventable blindness of
Medical men are fully
cognizant that many cases of in-
fantile blindness are caused
ignorance of the
mothers. and nurses; many a
child is condemned to life-long
blindness through the sins of the
father or the unpardonable deli-
cacy of the family doctor, A
very large proportion of those
blind from infancy is due to the
wickedness of the parents. This
is more the subject for a acienti-
fic journal than a newspaper and
therefore must be left to the con-

‘\gideration of thoughtful minds.

That the fact exists is the im-
portant point. If the govern-
ment appointed a committee to
enquire into the matter, ample
evidence could be collected which
would show the wisdom of a
young country. like Canada, and
especially British Columbia, in
setting aside a small percentage
of the receipts for the sale, rents,
and royalties of the public es-
tate, for assisting and aiding the
blind, What greater blessing
could a statesman like Sir Rich-
ard McBride and the Attorney-
general confer upon posterity
than the inauguration of an in-
stitution whose special duty it
would be to assist the medical
practitioners to cope with this
evil and save thousands of child-
ren from being totally blind, not-
withstanding that at birth they
are suffering from disease. This
would provide for the education
and training of the blind. 1
would ask all serious minded
men and women to make some en-
quiry before they dismiss this
matter from consideration.
