STATE IS CARING
FOR UNFORTUNATES

Stressng the work done by the Ten
nessee commission for the blind, r. r.
Morton. of Nashville, secretary, spent
Thursday in Memphis completing plans
relative to Improvement of conditions
OF these unfortunates. He has visited
Chattanooga and other places.
Mr.. Morton reports that Memphis
has the largest number OF blind persons
in the state, Nashville alone excepted,
that city being the home Of several in
stitutions for the sightless. He gave
some interesting figures on the state
workshop for the blind at Nashville,
His opinion is that this institution can
easily be made self supporting. Com
pensation for those in the shop is suf-
ficent to pay living expenses, he said,
until speed and skill sufficient to jus
tify being put on piece work is at
tanned. When the latter point is
reached, Mr.. Morton declared, the per
son is well able to provide for him
self.
Mr.. Morton asks all Memphians to
CO operate in aiding the blind Of Mem
phis. Any who so desire can be given
places in the workshop at Nashville
by communicating with Miss Effie

ers named by Gov. A. II. Roberts to

ment that the organization has dis

to treat 40, 497 people, and means a saw
ing OF SIG. 1850 to the people. The leg
islature Of 1918 gave the board an APP
preparation OF only sos, zoo for all pur-
poses. As an example Of the success
of the antityphoid campaign, the board
succeeded in reducing the number OF
typhoid cases In Jones county from 2ll
In 1917 TO so in 1918, a saving to the
people OF the county in doctors bills
alone Of $4,000.
