THE FPORCUPINE ADVANCER, TTIMMTINS, ONTARTO Speaking of the School Mr. Lawley pointed out that there were ten pupils gsraduated from the Ontario School for the Blind in June, 1937, and before the end of the summer they were ail found employment by the Institute. Thirteen graduated last moinuth, June, 1938, and they hoped to have them all employed by the end of this summer. It is the aim and the hope of the Institute to see that every blind pupil who graâ€" duates is found work as soon as possible so that no period of discouragement will ensue. There is a useful happy place for every blind person in his or her community and it is the work of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind to help each blind person to find that place. (Windsor Star) Miss Ruth Barofsky is a registered nurse in Boston. She has discovered one method to get a truck out of her way when its driver refused to move. She just bit the driver. When the nurse was hurrying to an appointment, she found «the road blocked by a truck. When the driver just leered at her, the nurse got out of her car and went to the truck. The driver leaned back and laughed. He hitched his trousers and displayed the bare calf of a leg. Miss Barofsky sank her teeth into the truck driver‘s leg. He let out a roar and jumped out of the truck. The nurse climbed in, drove the truck to the curb, then calmly got into her own car and drove along. She was brought to court for driving a truck without a license, but was let off on that count. She had to pay $25 for assaulting the truck driver, who appeared in court with a bandaged leg. He mentioned in particular one boy formerly of Timmins and was sure that all citizens and service organizations would be glad to hear of this boy‘s proâ€" gress. This lad lost his sight when very young from infantile paralysis. The Children‘s Aid Society, through Mr. A. G. Carson, first brought this boy to the attention of the Institute six years ago. He was sent to the Ontarico School for the Blind but for various reasons was sent home on the grounds of not being capable of receiving eduâ€" cation. The Institute sent a teacher to Timmins to specially teach this boy. He went to the School and was again rejected. FPinally the Institute found him at Latchford and after clearance with the Children‘s Aid Society of Temâ€" iskaming the boy was taken to â€"North Bay. â€"The Home Teacher was again sent in to coach him and in September last be was admitted to the Ontario School for the Blind and promises to be an average pupil. It has been a long struggle and whilst the infantile paralysis had wrecked much of mind and body and had robbed the boy of his sight, it was believed by the field secretaries and others of the Institute that beneath the wreckage there was boy who could be educated and who would grow up to more fully appreciate the true things of life. Try The Advance Want Advertisements i i l | | | He told the correspondent he rememâ€" bered when the present area of the city of Ottawa was still pastur> land and when the now thriving town of Renfrew consisted of three streets and no sidewalks. Pembroke, as he knew it â€"years ago, had one tavern, four blacksmith shops, a store and the court house. One of his recollections is of a man named Copeland, who lived in Pembroke, and who owned a team of moose, and it was Mr. Bailey‘s duty to clean and curry these animals. They were used, he said, between Ottawa and Pembroke by their owner, and they could make good time along the snow roads in their travels. Mr. Bailey was born on January 29, 1850, and has spent most of his life in this coutry, to which he said he came in the days before there was any regular steamer service betwen Britain and Canada. A number of new cases had appearâ€" ed in the Porcupine district and these were to have i>xaminations of their eye condition with a view to action. This fact set forth, as nothing else could, the thoroughness and efficency of the work and Mr. Lawley wished to thanked Mrs. L, E. Dorway and all the ladies of the Porcupine district for their noble and unselfish part in making this result possible. He also thanked all the patrons and subscribers of this disâ€" trict for their generous support of serâ€" vices for the blind. Pursuing its work the Institute, through its many departments of acâ€" tivity had rendered services or had made active contact with all of this group with the exception of about twentyâ€"five who had been difficult to seek out. In his report Mr. Lawley pointed out that during the year the registered blind of the Ontario Division grew to 3132 sightless men, women and childâ€" ren. Both the Timmins and South Porâ€" cupine ladies have plans well under way for the present campaign. There were meetings this week of both the Timmins and South Porcupine ladies‘ committees of the Canadian Naâ€" tional Institute for the Blind, and to both meetings Mr. D. B. Lawley, superâ€" visor of Ontario Field Services of the Institute, submitted reports of unusual interest. Among those present at the Timmins meeting were:â€"Mrs. H. L. Traver, Mrs. Dorschener, Mrs. Langâ€" man, Mrs. Robson, Mrs. Coulson, Mrs. Halprerin, Mrs. L. E.

His critics do not have to care about these things. They can concentrate their attention on one spot and forget all the rest. They can call for comâ€" mitments to Czechoslovakia, overlookâ€" ing the fact that trouble is looming up in Spain. They can call for war in Spain, without calculating the chances that Japan may prove threatening in China. When it suits them, they can advocate war for China, as though troubl> in Europe was a possibility too remote to be considered.

Fifty thousand dollars per day is the estimated haul by beggars in New York city alone. Most of this is pickâ€" d up by individuals, operating on their own. But signs of syndicated manageâ€" ment appear. § ment appear. A man in the Bronx, arrested reâ€" cently, turned out to be a panhandling overlord. Each morning he delivered his beggars to "work" in his car. He called for them at night and collected their money; then he lodged and fed them and plied them with cheap liquor to keep up their morale., tween responsibility and Irresponsibility. The man in charge of aftairs has to consider everything, and aborve all the safety of the people who have entrustâ€" €ed him with the task of governing themm and for thein. His critics have to consider nothing but the effect of their own noise, the capital they may make and the embarrassment they may cause the government. Thinking perâ€" sons will be able to judge sanely beâ€" tween the government and its opponâ€" ents. If there are enough unthinking persons in the country the nation may be forced into war. That will be a cheerful end to the controversy. (James Pinan, in the Forum) Doss begging pay? Most emphatiâ€" cally it does.
