LIBRARIES FOR THE BLIND
Probably few people ever give a
thought 11 the elaborate facilities
available to them for the satisfac-
tionof tbelr needs in the wety of
hooks. All except the newest bonke
can be bought very cheaply auy..
wheer, and through the pnhlie
libraries and cheap private lending
libraries, any book that any one
wanks to read, can be bought or
loaned with very little effort or ex-•
,pense. The literature of the world
is accessible and practically' free to
every person elm can read.
Until Louts Braille invented his
system of embossed type about a
hundred years ago, no blind person
could read. Their dedc.lency in title
respect was an almost inusrmurmt.
able barrier to their prigress in the
intellectual and social world, That
is why Braille's invention 1s rewire -
ed as the greatest contribution ledge
by any individual to the welfare of
the blind.
Now, no normal person gnatlnutes
from the various schools for the
blind without being proficient In
rea-(lirtg, and a great many people
who have lost their sight after the
age when their schooling was over
have been able to master Braille to
the extent that its reading 1500,1s,
them a great Beal of pleasure.
Of the nine thousand blind per-
sons In Canada, there are approxi.
mately fifteen hundred who read
"Braille" and depend on it almost
solely for their acquaintance with
the errand of bloke. Keeping these
readers supplied with books is one
of the most highly appreciated of
the services undertaken by The
