Helen Keller, the Noted Dear
dumb and blind student at Radcliffe
College, Boston, as'onished and de.
lighted the freshman class, of which she
is Vice President, by making a short
address. She spoke only few words in
a low unmodulated voice, which did not
lack in strength, and was even musical,
Up to this point she has mastered but
comparatively few words, but Miss
Sullivan, her constant comp snion and
guardian. can now understand her quite
readily, as can Others who have become
accustomed to her.
Miss Helen Kellerfis I9 years old.
She is the daughter of an editor in
Tuscumbia, Ala. When IS months old
she was stricken with long and wasting
illness that on her recovery left her blind,
deaf and dumb. But she became pos.
sessed ofa wonderfully acute perceptve
faculty, which she calls ''the power OF
feeling with my soul"
When Miss Keller was 7 wears old Miss
Sullivan, teacher in the Wright Hum.
ason School for the Deaf and Dumb, at
"a West 10Th street, Boston, was engaged
for her. The aptness of the pupil and
patience of the teacher made It possible
for the girl to learn to read and write.
Her development was rapid and she can
read books written in several foreign
languages.
