They See the World
Through Their Baby's Eyes

little ones growing and blossoming, de-
spite the blight cast upon them at
birth. But neighbors told mother
Richards that her little ones were
pretty children and she smiled and
coddled the little hands and faces she
could not see.
Time went on. AS mother Rich
ards heard the voices of her two lit
tie ones as they played in the dark
ness of their baby lives, she knew
that the great, good bird, the Stork,
would soon hover over her home
again. She knew that he was about
to bring another baby soul into the
world and mother Richards prayed
that this innocent might be spared the
blight of eternal darkness. Mother
Richards was cheerful and hopeful, but
when the time came for father Rich
ards to summon the village doctor, his
heart fairly stood still.
Some friends accompanied the man
of medicine to the Richards home.
They knew of the prayers of the
mother and father and of their hope.
The doctor could only tell them that
he hoped, but there was prenatal in
fuence to be overcome.
Before him was the sightless mother.
Waiting with the mountain friends was
the sightless father and the children OF
night. The doctor came from the
room. His face was wreathed in
smiles. He grasped father Richards by
the hand.
"A boy, seven and one-half pounds
and perfect eyes. He Sees" the big
man told the father even as he himself
was almost overcome with emotion.
There were tears of joy in the Rich
ards home that day. Though they did
not know just why, the childish laughs
of the little ones of darkness carried
new note of cheer and hope.
