A PERSONAL WORD TO
SPECTACLE WEARERS
McCrory Optometrist Gives Valuable
Information.
The optical profession is one
that is very much abused, I re
gret to say. The lpgislature pass
ed an act requiring anyone whc
desires to practice optometry tc
pass a State Board of Examiners.
This law, if enforced, eliminates
the incompetent spectacle ped
dler, but unfortunately does not
prevent the competent optician
from being dishonest—misrepre
senting and fitting glasses when
not needed, and charging exor
bitant prices.
Contrary to the general opin
ion, spectacles cost very little.
Our charges are made principal
ly for professional services and
not for the glasses, just as the
physician charges for his ser
vices and not for the medicine he
gives you, therefore do not be
misled into paying high prices
for so-called “pebble, ” “toric”
or specially ground lenses as
these cost only a few cents more
than ordinary lenses.
l am a graduate in rnysioiogic
and Ophthalmic Optics and am
licensed by the State Board of
Arkansas, and am the only op
tometrist registered to practice
in Woodruff County. I am per
manently located and can give
you better service at a cheaper
price than the city optician whose
expenses are considerable, or the
traveling optician whose travel
ing and other expenses must be
added to his prices. I fit glasses
as low as #1.50 and it is only in
very unusual cases that I charge
over $5.00. If you appreciate
frankness and “Reliable Service
at an Honest Price,” I ask you
for your patronage.
Yours Truly,
Dr. W. D. Hinson, Optometrist,
