The Education of the Blind.

The Midland Republican of Decem-
Der Z, says;
"Samples of cookies and biscuit,
made by girls totally blind, can be
seen at the Republican Office. These
samples are from some that were TAX
en- Tuesday from the school for the
Blind (at Lansing) to Adrian for ex-
hibition in connection with the conven-
ton there of the State Board of Cor
rections and Charities. A hammock
and various samples of needle work
made by the children at the school,
were exhibited, also book of raised
point letter (Braille) which was stereo-
typed and printed at the school, and
best of all, four of the children we're
there, two girls and two boys, who read
from the books and the stereotypes
with their fingers, played the piano,
sang, wrote Brallle from dictation, gave
|recitatioDs, ETC., arousing great interest
in those who saw and heard them.
They were under the immediate care of
Supt. Church and lady teacher and
remained through the entire conven-
ton, also visiting the Industrial Home
for girls. The children enjoyed the
change from school routine immensely
and sat with great patience through the
long sessions, in which some most val
liable papers and discussions were
given.
Hon. L. c. Storrs, Secretary of the
State Board of Corrections and Charl-
ties says that the school for the Blind
was never in better condition than
now"
This school is state institution and
is located at Lansing. Blind children
are boarded and taught free of charge,
Further information may be obtained
by addressing the superintendent of
the School for the Blind, Lansing, Mich.
Any person knowing of a blind
child, or one 20 nearly blind as to be
unable to learn in the public schools
should encourage the parents or guard
ian TO have such child sent to the
school at Lansing.

NEW YEARS GREETINGS.

Again the months roll round and
the year eighteen hundred ninety four
is about to be numbered with the past.
As the New Year is ushered in we
make ready TO bear with what forti-
tude, bravery and cheerfulness we
may, whate'er its days may bring. OF
Joy and sorrow we shall have our
share, but the new resolutions, the
earnest prayers and promises made
will convert many mountain into a
mole-hill, will make many a hard
path easier and also make our joys
brighter, if such be possible. There
is Il quaint custom of olden times,
that, at the stroke of midnight, on
New Years eve, the front door of the
home be thrown wide open and also
the back door. The old saying was
that as the New Year came in the
front door, all the troubles would fly
out the back. So, with us, we may, in
q measure, cast out our trials and
troubles and live more contented, hap
by lives. We make too much of our
own troubles, and at the beginning of
this glad, young year, let us throw them
aside and by so doing we will be hap
pier ourselves and also make others
happier. The year to which the end
is so soon TO come, has been full of
troublous times to many, our own lit
tie burg has, to some extent, suffered,
and yet, we have been most fortunate,
in as much as we are so much better
off than thousands of others. We
have the poor with us, but not in such
numbers but what they can be easily
taken care of and gladly, willingly,
do all come to the aid of such. But
year, to our people, has not been the
financially disastrous one, although
the close times have been felt, but
still we hope for better things from
the new year. Prospects everywhere
are Frightening and joyous anticipa-
tons are felt that the coming months
will bring forth great changes. Let
us hope and trust, how should we live
without either, and let us put into our
daily lives happy cOntentment.
We wish all our readers n glad, happy
New Year.
