oave ■ our Eyes ' Series TaikNo.4. THE RETINA of the eye is covered with -minute, Fairlike / / __ N. N. \ projections called rods and J f / \ cones, so small in fact, that it would / / / \ \ \ take fifty of them to equal the diameter I I j f 1 I 1 of an ordinary human hair. These I I 1 1 lif «J 111 ) little rod» and cones of the retina \ \ \ \ \\, ■/_/ j J respond to the action of the light, y \ \ \ f I / which moves in waves very much like \ S / j the waves generated when you throw \ \ / J a stone into water, on the principle of / the illustration'herewith. The lightwave impressions are transmitted by ■— these little rods and cones to the optic nerve. The optic nerve, in turn, transj mils the impression to the brain and the brain interprets the message received, producing the sensation of sight. Correct sight means keener observation to all that's going on around you. It means to you complete commercial efficiency. If you need Correct Glasses we'll supply you—lf you don t, we'll congratulate you. JOHN R. PROCTER Optician .. 200 HIGH STREET ... CHRISTCHURCH P63S
