MAURY TRANSPORTATION

Only twenty-five cents to the
isle Of delight,
New corners arriving both day
and night,
The axe, the saw, the falling
trees
Waited on every pacific breeze.
How different now!
SO many vacant houses, farms
grown to weeds
Marks the situation of transport
tation needs.
Luana Beach, sixteen years ago,
With adequate shore boats began
to grow,
Slow but sure it speeded along,
Gradually accommodating the in
creasing throng.
TWenty-seVen cottages, and ten
fine camps
Curio and rustic, of different
stamp,
Soon became inadequate, to the
greater demand
OF people, who came to Marry
island.
From Tacoma, and Seattle, as
well neighboring states,
Attracted by inducements Of
reasonable rates,
On safe, reliable steamers, that
run along the shore,
The changes and expense, now
prohibitive, they come no more.
Since Kitsap company control
the water route,
Even many people of homes are
moving out.
Two dollars to Seattle and return
Is too much of a draw upon what
they earn.
The receipts of Luana are de-
creasing each year
To be compelled to close was my
annua, fear.

It has long been mntter of tradi-
ton that the name alabama" had the
romantic meaning of Here We Rest"
This ORIGINATED about seventy-tive
years ago ana gained widespread popu-
larity through the writings of Judge
Meek, who handled the history of the
state in volume which was very @"n-
orally accepted Some recent phiio-
logical research has upset this. Rev.
Allen Wright, a highly educated Choc-
taw, says that it means "thicket
cleArerS." That was originally the
name of q tribe Of Indians which in
habited that part of the country and
the name was always given to the
river and afterwards to the state. In
his opinion the word is compounded
from abba" meaning Il thicliet or
mass of vegetation, and "amo,' to
clear or gather up. Another student of
tribal dialects concurs in this belief
with the slightly different definition OF
vegetation gatherers"

and most Of the books are printed

the outlines of the English letters,

but are constructed OF raised or en-
bossed dots arranged in groups to
represent, in the beginners class. the
simple letters, and later on, for adj
vanced readers, whole groups of let
tiers and words.
According to librarians, the aver
age blind reader can read n page as
quickly as we who see can read a

left to right with the finger tips.
a New World Opened
The whole range OF English and
foreign 'literatures is now open to
the blind. The State library, besides
nearly all the modern and popular
copyrights, including THE Sea
Hawk" Growth of the Soil" by
Knute Hanson; Booth Harrington s
''Penrod," and other modern novels
and non-fiction works. There IS
quite a library on the science of mas
sage said to be an ideal occupation
for the blind.
AS for a blind person having his
own library, it is quite out of the
question. A copy of David Copper
field, which takes a dozen or more
volumes because of the thickness of
the pages, costs $50. Other smaller
books cost on an average of from $40
to 500 Because of the bulk Of the
books. the United States Postoffice
Department charges no postage
when these books are shipped TO
Libraries from publishers.
The State library's collection OF
books for the blind dates from about
1906 and has been augmented at vart-
Gus times since then.
The Braille system is in three
grades. The beginning readers read
characters identical to English type
AS they advance, the characters are
consolidated for prefixes, suff1xes and
often for small words and those in
most common use.
The books are larger than ordi
nary, measuring from ten to fifteen
inches high. The pages are Of com
paratively heavy paper. The little
raised dots are pressed into the pa
per from the reverse side Of the
sheet by metal dies. The page is
then turned over and the die is
moved slightly upward and to the
side and the second page printed on
the back Of the first The movement
Of the die prevents the dots from in
terfering with one another. The blind
man feels nothing but the raised
dots. The depressions which make
the dots on the other side Of the
page his fingers cannot feel
Hundreds OF blind students use
the State library books daily. They
are the happiest and most grateful
Of all borrowers, librarians say.
