EROr the Blind,

Seeing we have number OF blind PEG
ple in this locality would it not be good
move il the school authorities were to
add to the district library few books
that could be read by the blind. 1t is
stated that the New York point or the
BraiIlie system is easily learned. As we
all know blindness il one ofthe, il mot the
greatest, of Affections. IL it not our
bounden duty TO do what we can to
make such a visitation. as much as DOS
sible, endurable. Thebooks are not very
expensive and il the school district off.
GERS think they have no right to expend
the library money for the purpose, the
News believes sufficient could easily lie
raised to purchase one hundred dollars
worth OF books. Here ia an opportunity
Tor someone who has the time to make
the collections. Surely there are in our
midst fifty persons who would give 80
each or twenty who would give s. each.
The News would gladly subscribe to
either OF such classes. Who will kindly
circulate a subscription list, that is, il
the school authorities cannot purchase
the books?
