Helen Keller is a college graduate, has
written two books. and by her lovable
personality as well as remarkable in
t~ellieence has won friends by the hun
bred all over the world. She was born
in Alabama in 1880 and at eighteen
months old had an illness which left
her bereft of the senses of sight and
hearing. She had been a perfectly
healthy child and in possession of all
her senses up to the time Of this III
ness. She was seven years Of age when
her parents. after seeking advice OF
various authorities in the education OF
the blind and Of the deaf and dumb,
placed her under the instruction OF
Miss Anne Mansfield Sullivan of the
Perkins institution, Boston, and since
that time Miss Sullivan has been with
her constantly. She began her work
with Miss Keller by teaching her the
meaning of such simple words as food
and water. and the pupil learned to
read by the Braille system Of raised
lettering. In studying Greek at a pre-
paratory school the blind and deaf girl
wrote her Greek exercises on a type
The Eureka sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1902-current, 1904-08-06

writer with Greek lettering which was
especially constructed for her. In reci-
tation and class Miss Sullivan at
tended her and spelled into her hand
by the touch method the words of the
teacher or lecturer, which Miss Keller's
remarkable memory enabled her for the
most part to retain.
Now that her degree has been won,
with all that such an honor in her case
signifies, the plucky young girl will de-
vote her life to work in behalf of those
who are afflicted with the loss of sight
Or hearing.
Miss Keller now has a most amiable
disposition and is so full Of thought
fulness and love for others that it Is
difficult to believe that as a little child
she was passionate and bad tempered.
When the light from the world of
darkened soul it seemed to change her
character completely. In her book.
"The Story Of My Life" Miss Keller
tells how she first discovered the use
Of a key by locking her mother in a
pantry and of the glee she experienced
at her parents efforts to break out
from the closet. She played the same
trick on her instructor, Miss Sullivan,
not long after the latter's arrival at
the Keller homestead. But the faith
full teacher 500 won the undying af-
lection of her pupil, and. though the
task of instructing her was exceeding
ly difficult, 1t "a rendered easier than
1t might otherwise have been by her
wonderful intelligence and her eager
ness to learn when once she began.
metaphorically speaking, to see the
light. 1t was some time before the
teacher succeeded in making the pupil
realize the connection between the
words spelled with the fingers and the
things actually signiied by the words.
The first time the young girl seemed
really to grasp this connection was one
day ut the pump in the yard. Helen
was made to understand that WA
ter spelled slowly meant the cool
flood that poured out of the spout.
An incident that shows the determi-
nation of which Miss Keller Is possessed
and her patience in overcoming obsta-
cles occurred in connection with her
final examination for entrance to Rad
clife college in 1899. The college au-
thorities would not permit Miss Sulli-
van to read the questions to her. and
an instructor from the Perkins institu-
ton who raj a stranger to her was
selected for the task. He copied the
papers for her according to the Amer
lean system of writing for the blind.
Miss Keller got along very well with
this in the languages, but when 1t came
TO geometry and algebra trouble arose.
for she knew only the English signs
and symbols for these studies. But by
