Many of the blind reâ€" sidents of the Dominion are very old some of them are very young; approxiâ€" mately five hundred are in attendance at schools for the blind. Last year the libraries of the Canaâ€" dian National Institute for the Blind, one in Winnipeg and one in Toronto, in Prince Edward Island, 438 in New Brunswick and 748 in Nova Scotia. There are 235 in Newfoundland. The annual report is an encycloâ€" paedia of information concerning the blind people of Canada and what is being done for them. In some parts of Canada it is a rare thing to see a blind person on the street, but this reâ€" port discloses that there are now in the Dominion 9450 men, women and children who must get along w:.thout the use of their eyes. There are 734 in British Columbia, 443 in Alberta, 583 in Saskatchewan, 581 in Manitoba, 3,057 in Ontario, 2,748 in Quebec, 105 as those we have overcome. The day will never come when every blind perâ€" son in the country will bask in idle luxâ€" ury, the time will undoubtedly arrive when willing and vigorous blind people will have no cause to fear unemployâ€" ment; when the blind who are infirm or aged will be provided for and when blindness which can be prevented will cease to be a major factor in adding to our registration. We can make these statements, not as a result of frothy optimism, but because our experience has taught us that such objectives are in our power to bring about. We have established hundreds of blind men and women in remunerative industry and commerce and the increasing number of those thus employed indicates that those for whom no place has yet been found, can ultimately® be absorbed. We. have proved, beyond the shadow of misgiving that the treament of blind pecple as helpless indigents was a traâ€" gic mistake. We have proved that the public, both through their legislative bodies and as private citizens, are preâ€" pared to support constructive and proâ€" ductive measures diesigned to assist blind people if concrete results can be shown. We have found willingness on the part of the public, to accept the theory that the handicap of blindness coniers upon those who experience it, a claim upon them for opportunity in a respectable standard of living. We have, T firmly believe, established pubâ€" lic confidence throughout Canada and won for the blind of Canada a positicn not comparable with that occupied by peop‘> similarly handicapped anywhere in the world. OQur ability to make this claim is, I think, an adequate comâ€" mentary on our twenty brief years of activity." "What is the condition in the Dominâ€" ion toâ€"day as far as blind people are concerned? It is by no means perfect. There are blind men and women capâ€" able of working and earning, who are idle. There are blind people living unâ€" der conditions which they should not have to endure. There are men and women and children whose deteriâ€" orating eyesight is not receiving the care and attention it deserves. There is work to be done which will challenge all our resources. While these things are true, they can be considered withâ€" out dismay, for on the other side of the picture, we have a record of successâ€" ful achisvement which has engendered the certainty that the problems they present can be solved. There are no obstacles in front of us as formidable An interesting comment on the presâ€" ent state of affairs in Canada as far as blind people are concerned is made by Colonel E. A. Baker, O.B.E., Manâ€" aging Director of The Canadian Naâ€" tional Institute for the Blind, in the recently published report of that organization. After making some references to the sarly difficulties enâ€" couraged by the Institute, Colonel Baker says: » ! This week the annual report of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind for the year ending March 3i1st, 1938, reached The Advance office. Unâ€" der any circumstances this valuable and enlightening report would be of deep interest, but at the present moâ€" mentâ€"with the annual campaign of the Institute in progress in Timmins and district the little volume is of very particular attraction. It would take much more than the space available to give an adequate review of the report. The illustrations alone in the wellâ€"printed booklet are worth a column of note and comment. There are, for instance, the photos of the officers and executive and staff of the Institute, most of whom are blind, and many of whom lost their sight on service overseas during the war. Parâ€" ticular interest here will be taken in the picture of officials of the Institute who are known in this district, These include:â€" Col. E. A. Baker, O.B.E., M.C., Croix de Guerre, managing dirâ€" ector of the Institute; D. B. Lawley, field secretary; Mr. Lynes, assistant Field Secretary; R. P. Thompson, forâ€" merly of the Buffaloâ€"Ankerite store. Other interesting pictures include:â€" The "Seeingâ€"Eye" showing four of the blind workers with their specially trained guide dogs; Miss Mary Edâ€" wards, first person in Canada to read Wl un d O "Gone wWith the Wind," in Braille; group of six Newfoundland children attending the Halifax School for the Blind; Esquimaux mother and childâ€" ren, the mother being blind; commerâ€" clal stands supervised by the Institute; "Blind Men in Industry"; cafeteria in The Globe and Mail building; team of blind bowlers.

Now, as I cannot see, I don‘t think it very nice to sit up and only eat, though it is only like a dream to me to think that I am blind. Those here grass baskets, I did them, and that‘s the work I do, and I sew the skin shoes. I makes things like that grass baskets and my little children‘s clothes. I gets things for them to by making those things. I used to be told by my father and mother, and showed to do everything. Mother used to tell me to ask for strength and help from On» what was not in sight, and that is the truth what she used to tell me, as now I feels it and knows it myself, but I never used to think about it when T gould see. I have a little son, and when I speaks and talks to him about those things, we, both son and mother, cries, and most I would like to see his face with my eyes, and that is why we cries sometimes, but I hope if I can‘t see him here, I am in hopes to see and know one another in heaven, as the saying is we will all see and know one anoth»er in heaven. I did feel glad when I heard that you were helping for blind people, as it helped me a lot." loaned 26,385 books in Braille to Canaâ€" dian blind readers The twentyâ€"three thousand volumes on the shelves of these libraries embrace fiction, drama, bicgraphy, science, poetry, travel, hi.s--l tory, education, religion and music. ‘ The Toronto library is the only depot in Canada for the distribution of books in recorded form commonly referred to as "taiking Books". Last year 2700 books in this form were loan>d to Canâ€" adian blind readers. There are now <ver one hundred blind people in Canâ€" ada who make use of the talkingâ€"book machine. In the annual report of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, there are many illustrations and reports packed with human interest, but there is probably no more moving chapter in the book than a letter received from a blind Eskimo woman, who lives far up the coast of Newfoundland.

The third is owned by a salesman â€" who guides his master through the thickest of Toronto‘s trafâ€" fic and the fourth is the guide and guardian of R. P.

It is the hope of the Institute that withâ€" in the near future, arrangements will be made to have a limited number of these dogs trained in Canada. Although the Canadian National Inâ€" stitute for the Blind extends services of great variety to blind persons of all ages and conditions, including those now receiving the small government pension, it is with the group over school age and physically and mentally capâ€" able of being employed fully or in part, that the Institute is most concerned. Its programme is based on the theory that such persons, handicapped only by loss of their sight, can, with the proper training and supervision, become useful units in the economic fatric.

The Canâ€" adian National Institute for the Blind is not a governmental activity, but it is an organization which derives all its support from public subscriptions and governmental and municipal grants. Like most organizations of the kind the Institute does not find the financâ€" ing of its operations an easy task and the president‘s report intimates that last year‘s deficit amounted to approxiâ€" forty thousand dollars. In spite of this, however, the Institue shows a large surplus of assets over liabilities, and, although it requires all the supâ€" port it can Oobtain from the various sources open to it, its financial posiâ€" tion is sound. < Its activities, of course, are limited by its reveniue and the measure of its success must depend, to a large extent, on the generosity of those who appreciate the great work it has don» and the inspiring possibilities disclosed by its accomplishments to date, * ;3 the back eral assembly in Toronto.
