from another of my annual visits to
Camp Landis. Camp Landis is an
estate belonging to Mrs. Irene du-
POnt, which for the last seven years
has been opened on June 1st and re-
manning so until the latter part Of
September. The blind of Delaware
are divided into groups. according
to their age and sex; each group be-
ing allowed two weeks. There are
exceptions in which a few have been
permitted to stay for the entire sea-
son, due to the necessity of having
a pleasant place in which to recuper-
ate after an operation. We have a
most cOngenial, helpful and practi-
cal hOusekeeper, who. with the capa-
ble assistance of her husband who
is blind, does everything that is hu-
manly possible to make each guests
vacation enjoyable. Camp Landis
without the Ross would not be the
same. Throughout the entire camp
season we are supplied with a young
girl who acts both as hostess and
reading from the books
we wish to hear and taking us for
hikes. Once each week a prominent
physician donates his
ervices to the guests. Our tTanspOr-
alton to and from the camp, tOgeth-
II with our board is also without
cost to us.
