ENTERTAINING THE BLIND.
I'm 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 a course Of
training before you can even do good in the world
In this position the task that requires most di-
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 are deplorabe. Poor readers
are most numerous and are hardest to manage
They have had no practise in reading aloud since
they left the lower grades in the grammar school,
yet when the fires of benevolence break out that
is the first thing they want to do.
"The blind are particularly sensitive to the
quality of voice. harsh, high pitched voice
that rambles on without rhyme or reason gets
on their nerves, and it 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-
fected into some useful channel"

perfect climate, its beautiful seem
cry.
But the valley has been without
transportation resources and the
world has kept away. Today, how
ever, it is different. 1t is certain
that the valley will have a railroad
before the future is much older
Surveyors of the Southern Pacific
are now in the field and are locating
a permanent line This is indicated
by the thoroughness with which they
are doing their work. The grade
stakes are of iron, which is taken to
mean that this is no temporary loca-
tion of a line.
The result is that many people
who have heretofore been deferred
from going into the valley are now
going in. This is evidenced by the
number of sales of Illinois valley
real estate that local dealers have
made this fall Another indication

COMES FROM HOOD RIVER

Showing the trend of things Grants
Passward is the arrival here of E. F.
Heath, formerly Of Grass Valley in
Central Oregon.
Mr. Heath is heavily interested in
Hood River valley lands but has de-
termined to close out his holdings
there as soon as possible and invest
his money in the Grants Pass coun-
try. Mr.. Heath came here last July
and was so impressed with the coun-
try and with its possibilities in the
way of development, that he went
back to his home determined to get
his affairs in shape so that he could
move here.
This is a great country and the
climate is superb. Thousands will
be flocking in here before long to
make their homes here" said Mr..
Heath.

not confined to the agricultural
crops. For one thing there are at
least 100000 feet of merchantable
timber tributary to the valley.
Then there are mineral resources
that can only be estimated. There
are vast deposits of copper and other
minerals in the hills that hedge the
valley about. At Takilma, in the up-
per end of the valley. there has been
built a copper smelter and it only
needs the coming of railroad trans
portation to make this resource one
OF great wealth to the valley and the
county.
The Illinois and its tributaries
have been famous for the placers
that have yielded wealth to the min
er for the past fifty years and there
are many mines still working.
The valley is destined to become
famous as scenic center when
transportation makes the famous
limestone caves or the Marble Halls
OF Oregon" accessible. This won
der has been described as being
greater than the Mammoth caves of
Kentucky.
The principal towns of the valley
at this time are Kerby, once the
county seat of Josephine county.

In connection with the accidental death
of William Cation, a fire-engine driver. on
February IA. w. Scantlebury, of Anacos-
tia, has written the Commissioners, and
suggested the placing of rail on the
front of the engines TO protect the drivers.
Chief Wagner yesterday declared a rail
would be impracticable. as it would inter-
fere with the driver and prevent the
proper control of the horses. He stated
that each engine in the department. is
equipped with straps for the drivers use.
Straps Prove Dangerous.
He further stated he would not recon-
mend that drivers be compelled to strap
themselves in their seats. as a compari-
son Of the records show that, while some
drivers have been thrown from their en-
gines because OF the absence of straps.
an equal number have been killed or In
jured on account Of being strapped in
their place and being unable to release
themselves in time OF accident.
Chief Wagner recommended that all fire
engines be provided with double seats, so
a man can ride beside the driver and the
liability of accident considerably reduced
He said ali engines purchased by the Dis
trict in the last five years have been pro-
vided with double seats, and other engines
not so equipped viii be altered as rapidly
as the funds available for the purpose will
permit.
