speaking hand for an instant to the
face OF the woman who taught her TO

smiled and took the caressing hand
in her own for a loving instant.
MY teacher Is from New England,
said Helen Keller, "and. il for no other
reason, 1 shall always love the New
England hills for her sake"
And then we talked of those Won
derful first lessons and how hard they
were 10 learn and of the strange sense
of being. all at once, one with the rest
of the world.
But 1 am so happy" insisted Helen
Keller. the deaf girl who is blind, so
very happy; everyone is so good to
me and l meet such wonderful people
and they are all so patient with me
and they tell such wonderful things.
What do 1 think counts most of all
in life-for happiness, for success, for
achievement"
Saws Love Counts Most
She did not hesitate an instant.
Love" she said, that is all there
is of life-isn't it, teacher?'
And teacher smiled and nodded,
yes: and my eyes were suddenly a
little dim.
Helen Keller, born blind. born deaf
born mute-how high she sits above
US all. alOOf as a spirit.
Who would dare to come to her
with anything but the best he had to
offer?
And through the green fields and
into the heart of the velvet hills we
went and out into the canyon and the
smell of growing trees, and Helen
Keller felt-every bit Of it-more than
thousands Of people ever feel any
thing.
1.-THE air, it smells OF sunshine-yes
and the rain, too. l can smell rain,
back there is the trees: it must be
lovely to hear it when it falls. / love
the feel of it on my face. They say
you have no thunder here or light
ning-what a land OF peace"
And when we left her at the rose
embowered birds nest OF a house and
went prOsaicly down to catch the train
for San Francisco, I felt like one who
has dwelt-for a space-among the
blessed. where little thoughts and
little tealousies and little ambitions
and little meannesses have no room
and cannot come.
Shall we all be anything like that. I
wonder. when we shake off these ma
terial bonds we call our faculties and
