dolls, the linen, the embroidery and thel
woven pillows, as accurate in design as,
II the workers had two good eyes apieceI
to assist the exquisite touch of their fin-
gers. Visitors found it difficult to beleve
that the robust, bright faced women
whose fingers danced in and out so nim-
bly, over the looms ard the machines
were victims of what is popularity SUPP
posed to be the worst of Affections. They
actually laughed over their work. 1T
was not until he had talked for many
minutes with his guide, William Patrick
that a reporter for The World learned
with amazement that Patrick was stone

The same spirit of cheerfulness was
found on the top floor, where women in
cooking class were making cakes.
There wasn't a single note of despair.
even from the pupil who fumbled over
and over with her fingers before she
could tell how much flour filed her tea
spoon.
Every piece of work the blind do is
paid for and they earn regular wages.
The broOms used by the Interboroughl
and the Jersey Central railroads are
made in the shops of the lighthouse, and
the pillows of college colors found in
many city home were fashioned by
the fingers of blind women.
On the second floor was Mrs. Beck, a
middle aged, sweetfaced woman, en-
broidering scarf She won gold med
al at the Milan exposition for peculiar
excellence in embroidery. She had made
handkerchief for the Dowager Queen
of Italy, and the Dowager Queen was
so pleased that she requested that Mrs.
Beck make her a scarf. 'The gold med
al is hanging here" said Mrs. Beck with
a smile, "but / have never seen it," The
organization has factory classes and
home teaching clubs. Its motto is:
Though darkness comes
None of us here may shirk;
Thou Light of Lights,
Now give US light through work.
