LIP READING.

The value of lip reading to those who
have the misfortune TO be born deaf or to
lose their hearing is inestimable. Deaf
children are now happily taught to speak
and to lip read, and are thus brought into
normal relations with the hearing and
speaking world. One of the most interest
ing Lessons to be witnessed at the Oral
School for Deaf Children, at No. II Fitzroy
Square, London, is the synthetic lip read
Ing lesson Of the Kindergarten class, con-
sisting OF little children of from four to
six years of age Although they at present
know the written names of very few of
their TOYS, they can pick out any one OF
the thirty-odd objects In their toy box at
the oral direction of their teacher A child
will be told to fetch a doll. get the bath
and soap wash the doll, and dry II and
each action IS performed as readily as
though the child could hear.
II would be difficult TO overestimate the
value or this speech and lip reading which
these little children learn, thanks 10 those
generous people who by their subscriptions
enable the association 10 carry on its good
work.
AS an aid" TO hearing for those who
nave become deaf in adult life, lip reading
Is superior 10 any OF the mechanical or
electrical devices now on the market, good
az some OF these are for certain forms of
deafness; q The lip reading instruction which
IS proWoed at the FttZroy Square College
mas been taken advantage OF by large num-
Defs OF deaf people. but many mere wouid
no doubt avail themselves Of the facilities
pfovided they were aware OF them and

In most sections OF the belt the plant

OF development and deterioration conse,
quent upon maturity seems ready to set
in. In fact, some Of the deterioration in
the sections where the plant refrigerated
was attributable to this cause.
In states where an advance was noted
the plant grew and fruited well and is,
generally speaking, heavily fruited and
promises excellent yield. The heaviest
deterioration was reported from Texas,
where drouth in the South has caused
premature opening Of bolls and has pre-.
cluded the idea OF II fall crop. Some con.
plant is heard from all dry sections Of
shortness of staple due to premature
opening. In North Texas fairly favorable
weather conditions were offset and over.

other insects. Drouth and some scatter

DEMOCRATS MAKE
GAINS IN VERMONT
REPUBLICAN LEGISLATURE WILL
NAME THE GOVERNOR.
BULL MOOSE THIRD IN RACE
Progressives Cut Deeply Into Republican
Vote-Democratic Vote at Least -,
20 Per Cent Larger Than
in 1910. II

White River Junction, Vt.-The Pro
gresslyes and the Democrats won tn,
Lonors in the Vermont state election, foI
although the Republicans carried thu
state on a plurality vote there was ne
election by d majority vote and the choice
OF a governor was thrown into the legis
lature. There the Republicans will hav,
a sufficient majority to elect Allen NJ
Fletcher and the remainder of the state
ticket.
Returns from 217 out of 246 cities and
towns gave:
Fletcher (Rep.) 23,oO2, Howe Dem
1880, Metzger (Prog.) 1890, Smith
(Prohi.) 1,425, Suffer (Soc.) 1,OO6.
Same places in 1910 gave: Mead (Rep.)
31,S1G, Watson (Dem.) 1898, Towle
(Prohi.) 1862, Ordway (Soc.) 500.
There is no doubt but that the legis-
lature will be Republican. A significant
feature of the vote is the big Democratic
gains made in the cities.. Mr.. Howe, the
Democratic nominee, kGs carried appar-
emily. nearly all the large centers Of pop
ulation. Some of them have in former
years been almost sclidly Republican.
The strength Of the Progressive party
and the gain of the Democrats over pre-
vious elections were the features.
The Republican candidate for governor
ran first, with the Democrat but a few
thousand behind, registering a big Demo
cratic gain.

First I combed my hair out, made
