Helen Keller Monday.

The charm OF Helen Keller lies not
50 much in what she does as in the
manner Of doing 1t. When speaking
in public she seems to really look at
her audience with her sightless eyes
and seems to hear their signs Of WON
der and admiration as she tells them
her joyous story Of rebirth and uplift
into a world Of form and color, Of
sight and sound. Her words come
slowly as If weighed carefully, but not
haltingly as if.with a great effort. She
is so thoroughly en- rapport with all
that is going on in the world-she
keeps SO well posted on the latest
news-it is not mere recital OF a
hackneyed speech that is given to the
listeners, but a stirring account, furb-
ished and enlivened with the hap
penings of the day. She is always SO
very much a1ive-a1ways so eager for
news of all that is doing in the busy
world about her-she is never satfs-
fled with yesterdays recital but adds
to 1t and makes today's as new and as
fresh as if an entirely different mat
ter from that of yesterday. 4
In conversation she shows the same
ability to entertain. She is as much
at home with the news from Europe
and talks as intelligently about the
cause that led up to the German
declaration Of war last summer as she

a large happy family working togeth-
