Have You a blind Baby2

\ o.
Until few years ago there was
no institution fully equipped for the
care, maintenance and education OF
the baby blind. But now there is an
exceptionally fine one, known as the
Arthur Home for Blind Babies. on
Pinegroye avenue. Summit, ". j. 1t
is large stone building with nur-
sery, hospital, home and kinder.
garten departments.
There are twenty-five children
there already, The kindergarten
IteacHers are graduates. The hos.
pital department. Is headed with one
Of the best graduate nurses to be
foupa with trained nurses; the hos
pital staff is composed of the best
surgeons and doctors of the c6un-
try.
The institution is maintained by
the international Sunshine Society,

club in the. world. headquarters,
so Fifth. avenue, New York city, N
~. Originally all thes members
were newspaper writer's but since
the dues are only kind deeds the
ranks have been joined. by good
people from all parts of the country.
These newspaper workers discov-
cred there was no provision for blind
babies; that they were put in the
poor houses of the different counties
'or sent to the idiotic departments or
institutions for feeble minded.
Mrs. Cynthia Westover Alden, a
newspaper writer and editor, is the
president Of this society, and right
fully maintains that we have no
right to assume that child has no
brains because it is blind. The So
itfety has proved that If proper care
and training is given, the blind baby
will grow up into a beautiful nor
NAL .health-loving child. with the
exception that it has no eyesight.
The society took the so-branded
idiots and feeble minded from the
different states, put them in the In
stitution and gave them the best
care aud: training that could be Sc
cured,r and has. proved the truth 5of
Mrs. Alden's statement for out Of
,eighty-two children supposed to be
beyond all help. only two failed to
respond to training.
It has also been discovered that
the mortality among the blind babies
is something alarming. The light
.hungerais greater than that of food,
and the blind babies instead of suck
ing their thumbs, dig their little
fingers into their eyes and rub, rub
for the light Chat never comes)
until the eye is injured. and as a re-
suit often blood poison sets in and
the baby dies.
when the Summit home was
opened, of the thirty-one children
on the list, when the workers began
tosprepare the home, only one could
be found.
Not one Of the children now in
the home was on the list for adj
mission when the home was opened.
Love and money will not save a
blind baby's mind. The very
mother-love that hugs the baby
closer and closer to her, is the great
est enemy the child can have. DAILY
the mother will see the baby grow
more feeble and feeble right under
her eyes. 1t takes graduate nurse

Considerable interest has been
lately awakened in the subject OF
improvement of the roads. This
interest has been advanced by the
visit OF col. Suggs, the State High
wayman.' In this region with al
most perfect natural roadbeds, the
most vital interest is that. OF bridg-
es. Wooden structures have to be
replaced every ten years and this
entails about all the expense the
taxable property can stand. Cheap,
permanent bridges about solves the
road problem Cement is the ideal
material but the present prices
are almost prohibitiye. Cheaper
cement can not be obtained from
the cement mills for their object
is dividends and they desire higher
Iather than lower prices.
The solution is in state owned
and operated cement mill, selling to
the counties and to citizens at cost.
This can be operated either by con
vict or free labor and we are in
formed by men who know, that uu-
der either system cement can be
manufactured by the state for 80
cents barrel.
There is demand for cement on
every farm and city lot in Oklaho-
ma and at the price above mentioned
its use would be increased more
than ten fold
Why do we not have legislation
to provide for this state enterprise?
Because We send pin-headed parti-
sans to wrangle over dead issues.

public business to street loafers,

not expect intelligent constructive
