HELEN KELLER ASKS BLIND
SOLDIERS TO FIGHT ON

Being blind is a difficult enterprise,
no matter how bravely one may view
it; but all the same we have COM
pensations that complacent persons
never dream Of. Blindness takes US
out of the turmoil of life and gives us
leisure to think and get acquainted
with ourselves, and enjoy things we
neglected in the excitement and ner-
vous strain of earning a living. l
a testify that a blind man can take
part in the work and play of the
world and get a mighty good time out
of it, too.
"You have been soldiers of the New
Freedom that shall sweep away all
tyrannies from the earth. Now you
are soldiers in a battle that shall some
day free the lives, the minds and the
hearts of the unfortunate from an in
tolerable fate"
That is the message that Helen
Keller, deaf, dumb and blind almost
since birth, brought to the blinded
soldiers at "Evergreen," the Red Cross
institute for the blind at Baltimore.
AS n soldier put it, "After hearing
that, l don't understand how any of
our fellows can want to get out of
Evergreen until they have learned
all that can be taught here"
All Americans are familiar with
Miss Keller's wonderful career; how
she has learned to talk without ever
having heard Il word; how she was
graduated from Radcliffe college with
honors; and how she has come to oc-
cupy an enviable place in the field of
writer's and educators. But no one
will ever know to what extent her
teacher, Mrs. Macy miss Sullivan),
has been responsible for her growth.
A small part of what Mrs. Macy has
been to Miss Keller, the Red Cross is
trying to be to our blinded soldiers.
At the dance which was given for
Miss Keller much merriment resulted
from the inevitable collisions. The
terrible fear that the soldiers undergo
in standing and stepping out alone
is the first difficulty which they ex-
perience; but learning to relax to the
rhythm of the music is going a long
way toward making walking easier
and helping them to regain their sense
of balance. They are gradually be-
coming experts in anticipating and
avoiding Dumps" Miss Keller has
learned to dance from the floor vi
brations and from the movements of
her partners.
Visiting the bowling alley she found
men rolling up as large scores as men
with perfect eyesight. She "saw"
them being taught typewriting; MAX
ing baskets; Gaming chairs; binding
books; weaving, reading Braile type
and regaining their self-confidence.
Miss Keller was delighted at the num-
Der of things the men are being
taught to do. The fact that the men
can swim appealed to her particular
