cannot see; ears, but he cannot hear;
hands, but he cannot feel; feet, but
he cannot walk. A brain. but so far
as we know, he cannot think. But he
lives out of this darkened chamber
he comes forth into life with a cry.
Now he begins to use those instru-
ments which in his early prison house
he could not use which had been
formed for him in one stage of his life
"He begins to use his eyes and see,
his ears and hear, his hands and feel.
His mothers hands deal with him ten.

him and satisfies his hunger, and
through these physical media graft
tuue begins to grow in him, gratitude
that grows to love. He begins to dis
tinguish colors, forms, distances and
through this distinguishing of colors
and forms a beginning of art life is
developed within him.
Develops Music Sense.
He begins to listen to sounds and
distinguish between sounds that are
melodious and sounds that are discor-
dant, ana little by little a musical
sense is developed within him. He

in this development The eye more

Communicates Life to Others.
The medium of communication he
seizes and uses to communicate his
life to others. He learns to play upon
some instrument, and the violin or
the piano expresses to others the emo
tons of himself. He learns to speak
and his own voice carries to father to
mother, to brother, to sister, or to
teacher the life that is within himself.

by and by this life grows so great that

men call a great picture. 1t hangs in
his study and men come and look at it
and admire it, but he says: I have
