To your success, all ranks and all

sire to express TO every man in the

However. our position places a
burden Of responsibility upon US

sacred obligation of maintaining the
reputation which they died to es-

blind girls learn more quickly than
the ones he formerly employed and
are far more contented with their
work. Since the war started, he
says. girls who see work for a few

or go TO work some place else. The
blind girls are paid the same rate
as the other girls were paid.
The experiments in finding en-
ployment for the blind are being
directed by the Olind welfare com
