The book is uniqLe. deals with the

daily frets Of the blind man-which
mount into so much of the tragedy Of
his life. One thing that specially i'm
pressed MS was the evil accruing from
telling a blind man lies, the admoni-
ton always to be exact in statements
made to the sightless. If a man lack
ing eyes cannot put trust in those with
whom he holds converse, life is made
very dark for him indeed. Two ways

pathos of the remark that the unfortl-

When we learn that most of the

some realization of the sad state OF
those thus afflicted. Poor and blind
is a phrase of ancient import.
In modern times there has been
much alienation OF their condition.
With the improvement in cleanliness
and in sanitary appliances at orphan

Question.

Indications are shown that the new
management of the American Automo-
bile association will make special eff
forts the coming season to encourage
the organization of clubs into state
automobile associations. The Associ-
ated Clubs of New Jersey, which was
organized as a branch of the American
Automobile association last fall, has
met with unexpected success ana now
includes over 1000 members, II all
the leading clubs in the state.
A. G. Batchelder, who recently relin-
ouished his duties as secretary, has
continued to be active in building up
the American Automobile association
and recently returned from a trip to
Cleveland. where he assisted in organ
izing the Ohio State Automobile asso-
citation, composed of clubs in Cleve-
land, Columbus, Akron and Cincinnati.
There are eight well organized clubs
in Ohio. and all are expected to join
nj the first regular meeting for the
election of officers, which will be held
at Columbus.
Massachusetts, New Jersey and New
York have the largest state o%rganiza-
tons. Illinois has an association with
Il good membership.
The interest that has been aroused
in Ohio upon the subject Of good roads
has had considerable influence in the
formation of the state association 1t
was organized last fall, and an ener-
getic plan was outlined to ecure state
aid for building new roads and improv-
ing the main state highways. 1t was
resolved 10 ask the Legislature for $500
600 this year and $1,000,000 next year.
When it is considered that only two or
three years ago it was impossible to
obtain 100000 from the New York leg
islature for good roads it will be pos
sible to form some idea of the ambi-
tious efforts being put forth in Ohio for
better roads

the course of its travels has developed
several new features. Finding that
there was a general impression that Il
speed contest over western highways
would fail to receive the sanction of
the powers that be, the promoters of
the plan have changed their ideas
slightly. 1t is now proposed that the
and for this purpose a run from Chi
cago to Cleveland and return is sug-
gested as a most favorable course.
That the speed feature is not entirely
eliminated is evidenced by the pro-
p0sal that the Chicago Automobile club
present a $1,000 trophy to the owner
making the best time for the course.
The idea is that nothing but touring
cars of the regular stock model should
enter the contest, but even these should
be able to make a little dust on the
way and perhaps brighten a chicken or
two.
Eight or nine automobile contests
are scheduled to take place in Europe
this season. Four are touring contests
namely, the circuit European, the
Herkimer cup, the Milan circuit for he
Florlo trophy and the British tourist
trophy race. The other four are speed
contests and include the grand prix in
France, the Brescia race in northern
Italy, the Sicily race and the Ardennes
circuit. This number may be added to,
as there Is every prospect of reYiving
the Pyrenees cup contest at Nice.

pendent, wretched class of lays pre-
ceding intelligent public provision
for their needs. Much OF the change
is due to- the blind themselves, whose
eagerDess and hopefylness has led them
from dependence into useful and nom
Orable careers.
The United States had held a dis
tinct place in the work tor the blind.
1t had not taken the European anti
tude that what work was dome for
these unfortunatRs was IN the nature
of charity, but, has put them in a
position where they were equals with
the other wards of the state, the pub
lie school children. The education OF
the blind forms an integral part of
our educational system. we hold it
their right to be educated. This pol
icy has brought beneficial results.
In this country a blind child re-
ceives the ann instruction as IS
given in the best common schools.
They are taught tine elements of vocal

System has not proved perfect, and
not a few of the students have failed
to make the mse of their handicraft
needed, yet on the whole the results
have been very good, the blind being
raised from the paupe class.
Statistics SHOW that scarcely two
tenths of the graduates from institu-
tons for the blind practice the handi-
crafts learned therein. Most of the
graduates resort TO various branches
of the musical profession, teaching the
elements of vocal and instrumental
music, playing upon organs, tuning
pianos, OF trading in musical iustru-
ments. Some graduates fake petty
agencies, and with a guide go about
