than the slate, but is is considerably
more expensive, costing about 1872.
The third and quickest method of
Braille printing is on printing press.
There are several publishers and
printers who make Braille books.
Most of their time is used in making
textbooks for schools for the blind
and standard works in wide demand.

TIM they have mastered.
Throughout the history of Braille
the various improved and modified
systems based on the original have
been problem Finally, in 1917,
what is practically the same as Eng
lish Braille was officially adopted in
this country. This meant that new
books must be made for those who
would learn only the new system.
When the veterans first came to Ever
green there were only six books, all
children's books, available in the new
| type. In the long run, the uniform
system will mean more books for the
/ blind reader. In the first years, how
ever, much volunteer work is needed
to build up libraries for those who are
/ just beginning to study Braille.
| Making BrailIe Books
! The handmade Brailles books are of
| heavy manila paper. Each page Is
shellacked after the writing is done
to make it stand repeated lingering.
To one who does not understand
Braille, the large sheets with their
even rows of raised dot characters
carry no clue as to the story written
English print
Moon type. one of the older sys-
TENS. is very much like print The
letters, slightly altered in some in
stances, were raised, and the hand
travelled over the page to spell out
the words. This system still is used
to quite an extent. Old persons who
lose their sight can learn to read
ruh
ferent from print, sometimes dis
courages them.
Though the Moon print is easy to
read with the fingers, it is less prac.
teal than the dot system because it
takes up much more space. Each
Moon type book requires more vol
umes, and so comparatively few are
printed. David Copperfield." which
requires five volumes in Braille, takes
% in Moon type.
1t is not very difficult to learn to
write Braille accurately, we are told
The basic form for the letters is a
row of dots, three high, like the SIX
: spot on a domino. Each letter is com

the dot in the lower right hand cor

which is more used, only one dot, thai

made.
Getting the dots even is made easy
by a metal slate which has rows o
