Grow Old Along With Me.

Yes, they are gliding swiftly by,
there's no two ways about 1t. We
sigh to think that we are growing
old sadly, inevitably growing old;
that the evil days draw nigh when
thou shalt say: Il have no pleasure
in them" when the summer shower
of disappointment and of grief shall
not pass as once It did, and the sun
come out again pretty soon as once 1t
did, but the clouds return after the
rain, the bleak November sky of old
age when the clouds return after the
rain Let them be hours of toll and
danger" If they must be, but, oh, how
gladly would we detain them! There
is so much for us TO do or ever the
evil days shall come. We are like

WISCONSIN DAY SCHOOL
FOR The DEAF

In addition to the state school for the
deaf located at Delavan, the state gives
aid to day schools for the deaf in twenty
two towns and cities. The total enroll.
ment in such schools in 19O1-0S was 3O5.
In these schools the sign language is
not allowed, and the pupils are taught
to carry on conversation by reading
the lips of those speaking to them and
replying in the Ordinary spoken language.
The boards of education of most of the
cities in which deaf schools are located
have added manual training and domes-
tic science to the regular school curricu
lum. The pupils enrolled in the day
schools for the deaf share in the instruc.
ton given in these courses, and frequent.
ly do a higher grade of work than many
of their hearing companions. The older
girls learn to do much of their own sew.
ing and the boys become so familiar
with the use of tools that it is compare.
lively easy for them to learn carpenter
work or cabinet making upon leaving
the school Some Of the schools have
printing presses and the children are
taught type setting and printing. From
this experience some are encouraged tC
learn how to run linotype machines upon
graduating from the school.
The location of day schools for the
deaf in the same building in which the
hearing children are housed, so that the
deaf may associate with the hearing on
the playground and to and from school
tends to make the deaf child ~ nearly
like the hearing child az possible The

In beginning to advertise, keep this
