Bir Francis Campbell. founder and for
forty years director of the Royal Nor
NAL College and Academy of Music
For the Blind at London.
The son received his kindergarten
and grammar school education side by
side with blind pupils. After gradua
t1on from the Massachusetts Institute
OF Technology in 1901 he took course
In pedagogy and music in the Univer-
sity Of Leipsic. He then became an
instructor in his fathers school and
has given his life to the blind. serving
with the New York and Pennsylvania
commissions.
In 1903 Mr. Campbell was asked to
organize the first state association for
promoting the interests of the blind in
America. The following year he open
ed what he called an experiment sta
ton for the trade training of the
blind" In this interesting place he
discovered some new industries for the
blind. which today are being followed
by the sightless in most of the states.
During this tfme-fn fact. before grad
uating from Boston tech he had be-
gun giving illustrated lectures TO show
how the blind can become more useful
citizens in the economic world. One
OF the chief objects of these lectures
which took him all over Massachu-
sets and sometimes into Maine and
New York. was TO arouse the public to
the necessity for creating some prac
teal agency for aiding that considera
Bile group Of the blind who lose their
sight in adult life.
PROFESSIONALLY Mr.. Campbelrs eff
forts were largely responsible for the
establishment in 1906 of the first per-
manent state commission for the blind,
and not unnaturally he was given an
tmIArtant position with the Massachu-
| sets commission.
In 1910 the Pennsylvania Association
For the Blind, with headquarters in
| Pittsburgh, was established, and Mr..
Campbell was asked to start the work.
Inside Of eighteen months the Ohio
/ state commission for the blind urged
him to come to Ohio to reorganize its
work. When he arrived In October
1911, the annual budget was less than
! $1,000. At the end OF 1919 he in
creased it TO 100000. including the
sales of the work of the blind As the
i result of this kind of work many pre-
/ dict that he will quie KY bring his in
4 stitution up to the same standard of
/ efficiency that he has achieved with
Il other organizations with which he has

ODD TOWN IN IOWA
Farmers Consolidate Interests,
Transact Business ProfitabIy.
FOUNDED AND RUN BY THEM.

Though Built Fourteen Years Ago,
When Railroad Was Constructed,
Fernald Has Population of Only 100,
but Air of Mutual interest Would
Please Any One.
OF Iowa is one Of the most novel towns
Of the country. There is no pickering
between townspeople and rural resi-
dents, as is often the case. The farm
ers for miles around feel perfectly free
to go to town without wearing starch
ed shirts and collars. There is an air
Of mutual interest between town and
country which would gladden. the heart
Of any rural life expert The reason
for this is that the town is owned by
the farmers themselves.
When he goes to town to buy bar of
soap or new pillow the farmer buys of
himself, or rather he is a partner In the
store. When he goes to the elevator he
sells to his company the grain he has
brought In. Perhaps his next stop will
be at bank owned and managed by
the farmers themselves.
The town is named Fernald. All of
its business enterprises are owned by
farmers living within radius of three
or four miles. Though built fourteen
years ago, when the railroad was built,
Fernald has a population of only 100
and probably will not grow much
larger i'm the years to come, because OF
| the nearness of numerous other towns.
But this does not mean that Fernald
| does not expect to grow and prosper,
| for the farsighted farmers who own
the town do practically all of their
| trading there instead of patronizing
| mail order houses or buying In neigh.
boring towns. In fact, the town is just
| big social center for the whole COM
i munity.
/ The town was founded by the farm
ers I'm order to avoid making long hauls
In delivering crops to the railroad. A
| line elevator was built shortly after
! the town was founded, but 1t was not
until about two years ago that it was
purchased by a group of farmers OPP
Grating under the name Of the Farm
ers' Grain company. III. S. Fleagle, the
farmer who put through the deal, was
made manager Of the elevator. The In.
vestment proved wise one, for in the
first year under the new management
| the elevator paid profit of 95 per cent
on the $1,000 capital.
The Farmers Lumber company was
organized by four farmers with cap
italization OF $6,4O0 Mr.. Fleagle also
manages the affairs Of this company
and its $4,000 stock. Another enter
prise founded by the farmers was the
Farmers Cooperative Mercantile com
pany. After brief period Of competi
ton the rival mercantile store was
compelled to close its doors, leaving thu
management of the town and Its bust
ness affairs entirely in the hands o.
the farmers themselves.
i The towns founders then establish
ed the Farmers Savings bank, with |
capital of $4,000. The deposits hav,
, reached the $4,000 mark In three years
Mr.. Fleagle's ability for management
, was recognized a third time when hi
, was made vice president of the bank.

, Storey county. Extensive use of til
