OF the thousands of deaf people in
New York City and elsewhere, very
small proportion takes advantage OF
the possibilities of lip reading. The
league would alter this. They intend
to open neighborhood houses, as many
as they can, for social intercourse and
for the economic good of the hard OF
hearing. They will have lip reading
courses at all these rooms, so that II
will be easy to learn, and so that the
encouragement to persevere will con-
tinue. That is necessary.

Little Mrs. John Peyton Clark, of the
New York League for the Hard OF
Hearing, leaned forward in her chair
and smiled excitedly. All these people
who have been deprived of and have
recovered their medium OF intercourse
are Of this nature. People who are
hard of hearing are essentially ner-
vous and inclined to moroseness. But
once they have realized this potent
fact, and have fought it of, they are
impslpably sweetened.
"The only really difficult thing for
a person who is hard Of hearing is a
dinner" she said, amused at some Of
her quaint experiences, "for then you
are hedged right In among people and

More than 100000 Deaf Here.

More than 1000 Deaf Here.
In New York City there are, at a
very moderate calculation, more than
one hundred thousand deaf persons.
Many Of these have never heard Of the
lip reading, but through the Silent
Voice League, the mother organization,
the New York League for the Hard Of
Hearing hopes TO extend It's relief to
them all. And their inspiration came
through the play now performing in
New York, at the Liberty Theatre
"The Silent Voice"
In this drama the hero, portrayed by
Otis skinner, becomes totally deaf, and
then becomes morbid and morose. But
through the art of reading the lips he
becomes regenerated, returns to the
ioy of the world. The incredulous out
bursts which accompanied this play,
and which its apparently unscientific
basis caused, have given impetus 10
the work Of the league. And now peo-
pie of influence, physicians of note, are
endeavoring TO prove TO the many in
quirers that the teachings are true.
Deaf people ask avidry concerning this
play, and turn away with dropping
mouth at what is told them. But fairy
tales have become modern day mira
cles, and the deaf do hear.
There are In society q number Of
women whose deafness is unsupported
By all but intimate friends. They at
tend the theatre, and enjoy it. They
attend dinners, and give no inkling of
their malady. And they are so happy
that they can do this. that they quite
forget that they are deaf. why" ex-

masculine sports that there is littie
doubt that they will succeed in enter
ing this. Conditions are rather DIM
cult in a city, for there is opportunity
only for indoor practice. But women
who have no temerity in organizing
polo teams will not be easily halted.
There is less fouling, less ferocious
hitting than in mems games, but there
is quite as much real science and dash
in their performance.
Curling, played with heavy stones
and brooms, is done by women in Can
ada. But here IL does not find great
favor. The stones are tremendously
heavy, and it requires much strength
TO throw them.
