Anna, handicapped more than all
the rest, has learned to speak better
than any of them; and as Miss HAM
mond deity read my questions into
her palm by the manual alphabet
she answered them rinhesitatingly, in
a voice slightly strained, but with
perfect articulation and faultless
English. !
She told me how as a little girl
she had gone to the public school at
Eau Claire, Wis, for three or four
years, and had learned to speak
English cher family spoke only Nor
wegian at home) and had been 30
eager to learn! And then, little by
little, her eyes had grown dim. And
at last, when she was nine years old,
she could see nothing at all.
A few days before Christmas, in
1901, there was a sudden snap In her
head, and she could not hear any
more, not even a loud noise.
That was the end Of the school
days. Il seemed The END OF life to
the little girl to whom the world had |
just opened. Her parents were poor,
the family was large and they could |
do little for her. Her dulled senses |
were an impossible wall. And be- |
fore long, as is the way with the deaf, |
she lost her power Of speech and
lived alone In darkness and silence,
speaking little and never spoken to.
There were four years Of this iso-
Iation. But the brave little spirit |
would not yield to despair. She was
sure that somebody Gould do some.
thing to lift the gloom. The idea |
grew upon her Until she began to |
write Ietters-pitiftd, seFaWly, little |
Ietters-to people she remembered |
who, she thought, might help her.
One of her letters came into the |
hands of man of influence, who had |
her entered as a student in the School |

they slowly revived her power of
speech. At the end of year she was
making rapid strides.
Then another blow fell An all
meht developed that made it neces-
sary to amphtate her right leg. She
lay in the hospital for months, and
missed a year of school. But when
she came back she was the same
brave, smiling girl.
It was then that Miss Hammond
took charge of her education, and the
result speaks for the patience and
perseverance of both.
Anna has done the equivalent of
two years high school work, and has
developed q taste and capacity for
reading far beyond the requirements
Of her lessons. She is a keen stu
dent Of history and Judge of litera-
tdre. She speaks well in English
and Norwegian and writes a strong,
clear style. She has mastered all the
important point-Teading systems for
the blind. She uses a typewriter
with accuracy that would shame
many a profession typiBt. She has
rare skill in basket weaving and,
wonderful to Say, in heedlework.
she is a happy, buoyant, warm
hearted girl alert Of mind and in

Gath, a girl.
The county commissioners
were in Roman last Friday on
road matters. They were called
here to straighten out a road
tangle leading to Sloan's Ferry.
The Poison Fourth of July
committee has engaged the Ro-
nan band for their celebration.
This action shows that the COM
mittee in charge knows a good
brand of music when they hear
it and that Roman is the real
place to come for the real article.
With the Roman band and the
Roman base ball team and a Ro-
nan crowd, Poison should have
the celebration of the reservation
this year.
The rapidity with which every
thing has grown during the past
week indicates a bountiful har-
vest all over the Flathead this
year. Some fields of grain were
backward owing to the lack of
moisture but the late rains have
proven just what was needed.
In the vicinity of Roman all
plowed fields are soaked thor
oughly, many farmers reporting
the moisture as extending from
eight inches to a foot in depth.
1t insures good crops in this Sec
ton again this year beyond a
doubt.
A visit to the farm of A. ].
Brewer, northeast of town, shows
what working to a plan will ac-
complish in anything one goes at.
His farm is all planned in ad-
vance, the walks, leveling, ditch
ing, seeding, fertilizing, and the
arrangement of trees and shrubs.
This makes it an ideal farm home.
Thoroughbred chickens, horses,
cattle, etc., add to the value and
furnishes good example for
others to follow in making per-
manent country homes. The
farm, while a pleasure to Mr..
Brewer, is also paying it's way
and interest on the investment.
