BLIND MAN WHO
 OVERCAME HANDICAP
Verne Bowers of Dewitt, Ark, Con- . quered and Became Lawyer.

Little Rock, July 23-Destiny. fate or whatever you will laid searins hand on baby boy almost thirty-fvt years ago. and when the hand was lifted the baby's eyes were closed forever to the sunshine and the beau ties of the world
 In an Arkansas home the blind boy grew to manhood. Deprived of one o1 natures greatest blessings, he found sunshine in the darkness, and he de- veloped his remaining faculties.
 He learned early that it was upon memory that his salvation lay, and SC carefully did he train this faculty that his memory became developed to remarkable degree.
 This blind man, this remarkable blind man, is Verne Bowers of Dewitt. He was in Little Rock today to place a sister in business college that she might be the better able to aid him in his chosen profession, the law.
 During his stay in Little Rock he and his sister were the guests of Miss Clyde King, 516 Scott street, to whom he is indebted for having read many pages of legal lore to him while he was teacher in the Arkansas School for the Blind. while Miss King taught in the Arkansas School for the Deaf
 Two years ago MT. Bowers decided to study law, and with no assets but faith in himself and courage to sur mount the seemingly impossible bar rier of blindness he completed the two years course in the University of Arkansas in one year. The following year he entered the Chicago Law School, from which he was graduated with honors one year later.
 In utter darkness he has accom- plished his ambition, but he is not satisfied. He is keeniy interested in the vital question of government, of society, of life He is interested in developing the things he has never seen and can never see; he is pro- gressive. aggressive citizen.
 We'll read, polished, kind to every living thing about him, Attorney Bowers is a mar, who commands ad- miration, respect and love.
 MT. Bowers has many friends il Little Rock and throughout the state especially among the unfortunates like himself, for whom he labored fol many years to teach and to uplift
 During the time she is in business college here Miss Bowers will make her home at the Y. w. C. A.
