passing pedestrian as he tapped his
way along the sidewalk. I've only
been there twice, and I'm not quite
sure of the way"
"You are close to it now; let me
take you" came the reply.
Arriving at the door the guide
said to the janitor:
"Klndly take this man to the Sec
ton of the blind"
"Take him yourself" growled the
janitor under the arch way on
the other side of the court yard"
The civilian did so, but on the way
out addressed the janitor again.
Couldn't you be little more oblig-
ing to the blind?" he asked gently.
"There are too many, and
haven't time" was the surly reply.
