"EYEs, FOR A BLIND GIRL
Friends Description Enables Her to
Visualize Paintings.

This is a story of a girl from whom
all the wonders of this beautiful old
world are hidden. She is blind.
The girl has been educated at great
expense, but she has never seen
painting.
One day it was borne in upon her
that the great galleries OF the world
were hidden from her. With her ears
she took in the treasures OF music
and books. but it seemed as though
she could not know the rich world of
pictures.
Il came about on a rainy day when
a new friend came TO see her and
ask il she would not like to go 10 the
Art Institute. where some OF Boutet
de Monvel's pictures were being eX-
nibited. The blind girl accepted witt.
enthusiasm.
When in the main gallery OF the
big building devoted to pictures and
! sculpture like thunderbolt it came
upon her friendly guide that she had
brought blind woman TO see pic
lures" Appalled,. she turned to her
and timidly asked if she had ever
been in the gallery before.
No, | have never seen a picture,
was the reply, with no bitterness in
| her voice.
The blind girl asked questions
many questions-and then the seeing
girl led the sightless one to noted
canvas. Describing the dimensions
of it she infinitely related all she saw.
The entire day was spent within
those gallery walls. From one paint
ing to the other the seeing and I'M
seeing women went. Hours flew by.
When the friendly guide remembered
with solicitude that she might be eX-
hausting the blind girl and suggested
that they come another day, she was
met with vigorous protest that such
joyful day could never weary her,
that she had missed so much in her
life in never having seen pictures be-
fore, that she must avail herself of
every opportunity to see them here
after.-New Idea Woman's Magazine.

Invention May Change Fire Methods

1t has remained for Joseph W. kel-
ley, for ten years a fireman in the
Brookline Fire Department, to invent
a piece of fire fighting apparatus that
Boston and New York experts believe
may revolutionize the handling of Ger.
tain kinds of fires.
The apparatus invented by Hoseman
Kelley is known as the Kelley fire
collar" 1t is nozzle attachment that
can be fastened to the end of any or
binary fire hose and is so arranged
that it works very much like the IA
miliar lawn whirling sprinklers.
The invention is regarded by those
who have examined it as being of ex-
ceptional value when the safety of the
operator is concerned.
All that is necessary in order to
bring the collar into working COM
mission is to attach it to the ordinary
pipe line of hose. With high pres
sure stream attached the arms revolve
rapidly and throw the water in a cir
Gle to a diameter of $50 feet
In case a group of buildings with an
enclosed courtyard become ignited the
hose can be lowered with the collar
attached and water played on the
flames with no danger to the firemen.

Horace Fogel,c the newly-appointed
president of the Philadelphia National
League Club, said today that the 16S-
game schedule would probably go
through, despite the opposition of Pres
ident Barney Dreyfuss, of the Pitts
burg Nationals. This statement is
practically an admission on the part of
Fogel that he is for the heightened
schedule. g..
Pittsburg had the poorest. as well as
the best, batsman in the National
League on its roster during the past
season. Wagner, of course, occupied
the premier position, but Babe"
Adams had an average of .059, getting
only two safeties in thirty-nine at
tempts. q.
iris Speaker, the Boston American
''phenom," had thirty-five assists to his
credit last season-more than any
other outfielder in either of the big
leagues.
While there will be no radical changes
effected, it is expected that when the
joint rules commission meets in Pitts
burg next Monday the prime object
will be the simplilcation of the e
of the rules. Some of the rules are
now very puzzling.
Connie Mack will hold onto his sur
plus players until the expiration of the
roster limit. He. has such an excellent
list of promising youngsters that he
will give every one of them a chance
to shine on the Southern trip.
Roger Bresnahan's most promising
recruits are Second Baseman Magee,
of Seattle; Pitcher Geyer. of Column
bus, and Infielder Bell, of Columbus.
Ellis, O'Hara and Evans will probably
occupy the ~outfield positions.
Waivers on Wallace Clement, who
was purchased from the Philadelphia
club by the Infants" and who played
the outfield for the latter team, were
recalled yesterday, as the Boston club
refused to waive claim to him. "Waliy"
will probably be in Beantown instead
of Jersey City.
Pitcher Ralph Stroud, who was re-
leased to the Williamsport club. of the
Tri-State League, by Harry Wolverton,
of the Newark baseball club, was the
leading twirler of that team. He was
ON the mound in thirty-one games, and
won twenty games and lost ten and had
one tie game. He also pitched in a
ff~teen-inning game winning by the
score of 6 to 5.
Pop Foster. who once wore a Newark
uniform, and at one time a member of
the New York Giants, and who is now
with the Reading club, in the Tri-State
League, batted at a 1913 clip, and had a
fielding average of 1857. This is far bet
ter than he ever did in the big leagues.
1t is probable that the Phillies will
play a game with the Princeton war;
sity team on March "a at Richmond,
Va, while the two teams are on their
Southern trips.
1t has been by Presi-
dent Lynch, of the National League.
