Ewes for the Blind


 F. Ellison Adams, in Christian Herald. One of the things growing out of this war is the adoption of a uniform type Tor the blind by all the leading countries of the world All books for their reading are to be printed in Braille. It is raised type, in the form of embossed dots, read with the fingers, and is learned with comparative ease. The adoption of uni form type was finally brought about by the problem of caring for the war blind It does away with the necessity Of du- plicating the same book in various types In America we have gone one step fur- ther and have authorized the use of a simplified form of that type. The Engifsh use Braille, grade two. which has aoou' 200 contractions; grade one and one-hait' which we have adopted has but forty four contractions. Our system is less abbreviated but is much simpler and more easily learned
 The demand for books among the bliad has increased so rapidly that our libraries are no longer in position 10 meet it. During the past year the err culation of the embossed books reached higher total than ever before In d recent report Mrs, Gertrude T. Rioer or the division of work for the blind for the Library of Congress, states that tha number of borrowers from the library increased s7 per cent. Not cnly is there lack of printed copies of the works wnich have already been rendered readable Tor blind people, but there IS also depio"- able limitation in variety of sue1ect mat ter. The Library for the Blind a branch of the circulating department or the New York public library, which ranks first among the ten liDrar'es throushout the country carrying em- bossed books in any quantity, has col lection of a little over 11.oo0 volumes, ex- elusive of music scores.
 The embossed books are printed in any one of the various types, some in one some in another. there being four types in general use, and they represent aooNs 2.5oO titles. It might be remembered that this is a representative collection. There are less than 100 titles in print in the newly authorized revised Braille adopted for this country.
 The production of books for the blind is a slow and costly proces. special kind of paper is needed. tough and flex- ible. The size of Braille volume is al- most appalling compared with its proto- type in normal characters. Braille book occupies something like sixty times as much space as it's counterpart in type. The demand for any one work in the Braille is extremely limited, as few blind people can afford to own embossed books in any quantity.

By CAROLYN B. ELLIOTT


 Memorable occasions are benig antici- pated by the Salvationists of Birming- ham today in the services that will be held at Il o'clock this morning and S o'clock this evening, at headquarters on North Twentieth street in farewell to Commandant and Mrs. Levi Grimshaw.
 Commandant and Mrs. Grimshaw have recently received promotion in the long service order bestowed by Commander Evangeine Booth upon those who have devoted twenty-five years of successful service in the ranks of the Salvation Army. After nine months of effectual work in Birmingham the commandant and his Wife are leaving Tuesday to accept a new appointment and to enter into service at their post of duty in Jackson, Miss. Their successors, Ensign and Mrs. George McAteer of Mobile, are expected Wednesday to take immediate charge of the Birmingham corps and re- lief office on North Twentieth street.
 Before leaving the city l wish to ex- press my appreciation to the people of Birmingham for their interest in the work of the Salvation Army. In no other city have I seen such remarkable street meetings as we've had here. The attend ance has always been good and the at- tention exceptional Numbers of conver- sions have been recorded, and when there hasn't been room to accommodate people indoors there have been those who knelt on the street corners at our drums head for prayers. A few have been added to our numbers as soldiers of the Salvation Army, and little chp- dren have been dedicated who were given for future service.
 "Only last Sunday evening nine bands men were commissioned, who will give their services free of charge in the eve nings after working in the shops all day, You know" he commented, many pee pie think that all these men who work for the Salvation Army are paid. But that is not the case. Most of them are men who work all day along other lines for a livelihood and who give their time out of work hours freely and gladly to the service. Really. all Salvationists pledge one-tenth of their incomes to the support of the Salvation Army when they become members. "t.
 '.But with all the success that has been ours in Birmingham, the work has been immeasurably handicapped for lack ot a building and proper facilities for carrying it on. For the sake of our successors and the great work that is waiting us in this city, I sincerely hope that something will be done to remedy this. Because our work can never grow IS it might as long as we are in these cramped quarters
 As I had gone especially to see the quarters, as we'll as to bid the command ant goodbye. my eyes were not blind to
