ENABLES BLIND
TO READ MUSIC
Blind Printer lnvents System by
Which Sightless Musicians
Can Read Notes Easily.

Jacksonville, Ill.--Five years ago
l.. w. Rodenberg, blind printer of the
state school for the blind. began ex.
periments to perfect a system of mu.
steal scores for the blind. In 1923 his
device has been accepted by all the
leading institutions for the blind in
the United States, and the school at
Jacksonville now publishes more music
than any other institution in America.
Formerly when a blind musician
would run his fingers over the en-
bossed dots of his Score, he could read
only notes designed for the left hand
without the slightest knowledge of
what the composition as q whole
would sound like. Then he had to go
back to find out what the right hands
part was like, since each score was
printed separately.
Alternate TWO Clefs.
The English devised a different sys-
tenn by which they placed the treble
and bass alternately. That is, there
would be a few lines for the left hand
and hen a few for the right hand,
but even this innovation did not please
the blind musicians who wanted to
study the full score of the compost
ton as they proceeded.
Mr.. Rodenberg devised eighteen diff
ferent systems while he conducted his
experiments and submitted them to
teachers of the blind throughout the
country, asking them to select the one
which seemed most practicable.
The system chosen has been re-
ceived with reclamation by the blind
musicians everywhere, and the presses
at Jacksonville are kept busy meeting
the demand for music written accord
ing to the new system.
Uses bar Over Bar" Method. =
1t sounds simple enough, according
to Mr.. ~Rodenberg. He calls it the
"bar yer bar" method. Instead of
printing the whole composition for
the left hand and then following the
music for the right, after the manner
of a puzzle in which the two parts
must be pieced together, Mr.. Roden-
berg follows the conventional method
of printing music.
On the top line of the page is print
ed the score for left hand. Just I'M
derneath he places the right hand
Thus a blind musician can read
with both hands at once and get a per-
feet Idea of what the composition as
a whole will sound like.

MY FAVORITE STORY
BY IRWIN COBB

Yesterday 1 told story of a certain Grand
Jury. Today's offering has a somewhat
similar setting.
In a certain Eastern state a Grand jury
had been impaneled and, having been
charged by the presiding justice as to the
nature of its duties its members retired from
the courtroom selected their officers, and
according to the ancient custom, adjourned to
inspect the county jail and then to meet upon
the day following.
The next morning. Immediately after roll
call, one of the members arose and spoke as
follows:
'Mr. Foreman, before we take up any
criminal business l have matter of grave
Importance to bring before this body. Yes
terday, as you all know, we marched over to
the county jail and looked through it. Well,
that part was all right The old jail seemed
to be clean enough, plenty Of soap and water
and disinfectants had been used. The pris-
oners looked just about what I expected
they'd look like. I guess it was no surprise
to them or to the sheriff either to see us
there. Probably they knew we were due and
got the place all sIicked up beforehand.
But I observed something that nobody
seemed to notice, and last night l got to
thinking about it and I couldn't Sleep and l
decided I'd bring it to your attention the
first thing today so that something could be
done about it; and that thing is just this
in case Of fire there amt man in that jail
can get out"

HEALTH CRUSADING
BY H. Addington Bruce

NF INTEREST and inspiration as show
I J ing marvels that may be wrought in
~ community health improvement is pa
per read at medical meeting by DR.. B. B.
Bagby, Of West Point, Va. In this paper
were recounted some of DR.. Bagby's medical
experiences since he began practice in West
Point Ia years ago, and more particularly the
virtual disappearance of certain summer dis
eases which were then prevalent in that small
southern town.
When DR.. Bagby settled there 1t was the
boast of local officials that West Point was
the healthiest town in Virginia. Actually it
was most insanitary. Not one dwelling place
was completely screened, modern plumbing
and drainage were conspicuous by their alb
sence, scaVenger work was done by the local
dairyman, who went directly from that
work to milking his cows, bottling and de-
ltyering the milk"
Consequently DR.. Bagby was hardly sur
prised to find that of the patients seen by
him during the five summer months of his
first year in West Point-1909-a large pro-
portion suffered from diseases attributable to
faulty sanitation He had seven cases of ty-
phoid fever, / 5 of cholera infantum, and
nearly 100 cases of malaria, out of total of
1853 town patients.
'Thereupon he began some health crusad-
ing.
His first move was to preach the gospel
of screening as a protective measure against
disease transmission by flies and mosquitoes,
Also he urged fly and mosquito eXtermina-
ton, lettering of the milk supply, and of
the water supply, and drainage improve
mentS.
One after another the reforms advocated
were brought about, through the co-opera-
tive zeal of town and state authorities. So
that DR.. Bagby was able to inform his med-
cal audience, reviewing the results obtained
in the short period of less than 5 years:
'Now, 80 per cent of our milk is put up
under thoroughly sanitary conditions. Even
the poorest negro tenements of our town now
have good window and door screens. The
town and state authorities spent abOu$ 5000
a few years ago to drain our Marshes and
there has not been a single. case of malaria
contracted in our town since that time.
-Four years ago our town put in com
plete water and sewerage system, and the law
now compels every house to connect with
this system. Our water comes from artesan
wells about 400 feet deep and is almost
sterile. The improvements in the health Of
our town have paid us (the citizens) many
times over for the money expended in putting
in the water works and draining our
marshes"
In fact, though his practice had increased
out last summer had only one West Point
patient suffering from dysentery, and not a
single case of malaria, typhoid fever or chOl-
era infantum. Neither had DR.. A. S. Hud-
son, West Points only other physician
Moreover, to again quote DR.. Bagby him
self:

THE FRENCH VIEWPOINTS
By DR.. Frank Crane


It is we'll for every one to try and get the
other fellows point of view.
France at present seems to be at logger
heads with the rest of the world. But be-
fore we definitely condemn her we should try
to get into the French mind and understand
the way it looks at things.
M. Coudurier de Chassaigne, one of the
most widely known of French journalists,
gave a pretty fair statement of the French
idea in the London Sunday Times not long
ago.
He brings out these points.
First of all, public opinion in Paris is more
difficult to gauge than in London for the or
binary Frenchman takes but little interest
politics.
The French, however, like every other peo-
pie, hate to pay taxes and they are heavily
taxed. Therefore all the wire pulling which
goes on in the chamber of deputies Isl ex-
planned by the fact that 1t is an attempt %
make the French pay all the state needs with
out realizing it,
When foreigners reproach the French for
imperialism the Frenchman shrugs his Shout
ders and laughs. No nation is more ind.ffer-
ent to dreams of world power and cares less
about dominating the rest of humanity.
Even in the case of Alsace-Lorraine, If that
province had become a free state, sort OF
Switzerland, everybody in France would h re
been delighted.

The littlest and softest things;

loves eyes
Which only such labor brings
And l watch her sewing, and In my
heart
Is the pride of a dozen kings.
She's sewing on little garments
And as she sews she dreams
Filled with vision of joy and hope,
Thrilled with her plans and schemes,
And the light that was never on sea

Over her features CLEANS.
She's sewing on little garments
And the day of her trial is near,
Yet all her mood is the mood of Joy
And never a hint of fear;
oh, wife, may it all go we'll with you,
My dear, my dear, my dear!
