A Deaf Mute Rally.

The deaf mutes of Chicago held
rally recently which was the most
unique political meeting in the city's
history. Each speaker presented his
argument and exhortation much as he
would have done before any audience,
He waxed eloquent, he displayed scorn,
he spouted vtuperation, he reasoned
closely, he appealed with heat and pas
sion. The only difference was that he
spoke each word distinctly and that
he was careful to give each much the
same stress, whether it was merely an
article or conjunction or an important
noun or verb. A woman stood beside
him, and as the words dropped from
his lips she translated them into the
sign and symbol language Of deaf
mutes. Her arms played like wind
mills, her fingers interlaced and twist
ed, crooked and doubled, and all this
necessarily and without pause
throughout an hour or more that each
orator poured forth his plea. She
would froWn at times, at times show
her teeth. The audience appreciated

are served and frequent changes in
occupation rest the body and keep off
mental fatigue. The teacher sees to 1t
that the children go to the dispensar-
les for treatment, and that they wear
the braces, which many of them want
to cast off, thinking they tend to make
them conspicuous in their inflrmity.
The children have kindergarten
work and the branches taught in the
primary school. Much Of the teaching
has to be along individual lines, be-
cause no two are of the same age or
have the same degree Of development.
The principal of the school, who is
deeply interested in these children,
hopes to train those who are strong
enough to DO some kind OF work that

homes where gaunt poverty and dull

pied children was established by the
Children's Aid Society with the means
of transporting them to and from the
school rooms, these little unfortunate
people frequently huddled desolate
and alone, suffering and neglected,
