Mrs. Winifred Holt Mather-in an ad-
dress at Raucher's. preceding a lee
ture by Janet Richards yesterday
afternoon for the benefit of these in
stitutions told of the urgent needs in
order that this work among the blind
should not cease.
After her introduction by Charles
Butler, Mrs. Mather said in part:
THE first President of the United
States to give his support to the
Lighthouse was President Taft. His
ident Wilson, our late beloved Presi
dent Harding, and now President
Coolidgeis our Honorary Chief. On
a photograph which we have just re-
ceived from him, to hang beside the
pictures of four other Presidents of
the United States, President Coolidge
has written: No earthly power
can blind the spiritual light.
Such an utterance is worthy of one
who has taken the high seat Of Lin
coin. Such a President can go for
ward with charity toward all, with
malice toward none, to do the right
as God has given us to see 1t.
