Laws and Locks

There was once a man who was
afraid burglars might enter his home
by way Of the front door.
So he had double locks put on It,
Then he had bolts AZ the top and bot.
tom. Later he had complicated night
latch and a spring lock attached. Then
be affixed a heavy bar across the cen.
ter OF the door. And as a last adorn.
ment he equipped the door with a
strong steel chain.
Now. all this was all right. but the
cdd part of II is that he never turned
on the night latch. the spring lock
was always left open, none OF the
bolts was ever shot. the bar was al
ways off its place and the chain was
never In use.
But II isn't 80 odd when we reflect
that he was a legislator who was al
ways helping to pass laws that were
never enforced.

ENTERTAINING THE BLIND.

'In these days OF specialists you can't just
step out and help your fellow humans In haphaz-
ard fashion," said the matron on an institution
for the blind. you have to take course OF
training before you even do good In the world.
In this position the task that requires most d.
plomacy is declining the services OF people who
offer to entertain the blind All sorts OF incom-
petents volunteer. Their intentions are good but
their achievements deporable. Poor readers
most numerous and are hardest to manage.
They have had practise in reading aloud since
they left the lower grades in the grammar school.
yet when the fires OF oenevolence break out that
is the first thing they want to do.
THE blind are particularly sensitive TO the
quality OF a voice. harsh. high pitched voice
that rambl@s on without rhyme or reason gets
on their nerves. and II is our duty to shut out
all such readers They have to be handled with
care because their hearts are in the right place.
and with tact their good intentions may be de-
aected into some useful channel"
