HALIFAX SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND. A Letter From the Superintendant—An Appeal to Those Who Have Sigitt.

Dear Mr. Epiror,—A few weeks since when visiting the eastern portions of the

| province of Nova Scotia, I heard of a man

who was deprived of sight; and being in search of all cases of partial or total blind- nese, 1 made arrangements to meet hii, with a view to seeing whetber the School for the Blind could in any way be of ser- vice tohim. I found that the man was 38 years of age, that he had accidentally lost the sight of both eyes when he was 16 years old, and that for twenty-three years he had been sitting idly all day long, the monotony of his life being broken only by eating and sleeping. Physically and men- tally, and I might say spiritually, the man had become s complete wreck. Ambition and hope for the future, and even the power of enjoyment ofthe present, had vanished out of his life, and I found that I had come to him too late and that his destiny on earth, at least, was a dull, mon— otonous existence.

. For twenty-four years every effort has been made to make the School for the Blind known througbout the Maritime Provinces. Every available agency has been used to awaken the interest of the public in the education of those deprived of sight and to stimulate broad-minded and intelligent persons to co-operate with the school, and to bring all those for whose benefit it has been establixhed within the scope of the privileges and blessings which it is fortunately able to offer; and yet in the provinces many blind children have been allowed to grow up in ignorance, and like the man referred to above, are now

leading lives of helplessness and enforced idleness, Contrast the lives of the energetic, enthusiastic

self helpful and self-supporting men and women who have gradvated from this in- stitution with the miserable monotonous lot of thore who have not enjoyed its advantages, and then you will ne longer wonder at the constant and uuceasing efforts which have been and are being made to obtain information wi-h respect to those who are totally blird or whose sight is So far impared that they can no longer see to read,

Many persons express surprise that the parents or guardians of those who are partially or totally blind don’t at once communicate with the superintendent of the School for the Blind at Halifax and secure for their children the free education which the school affords. But experience has proved that few parents will admit that their children are hopelessly blind, that the one central thought in the minds of such parents is the recovery of sight, and that owing to this oftentimes false hope and to indifference, the children are allow- ed togrow up and reach manhood and womanhood without any effort having been made to prepare them to lead useful lives.

I believe that each reader of this letter will admit that in this enlightened 19th Century, no totally or partially blind child who has average mental capacity, should be allowed to grow up in ignorance. | believe that each reader, is willing to do his or her best towards furthering the work of the school, and I believe that as an outcome of this letter, each district in the Maritime Provinces will be thoroughly searched, and that the report of each and

every case of blindness existing will be forwarded to the Superintendent of the Schoo] for the Blind at Halifax.

Don’t imagine, reader, that this can be done without effort upon your part. Un- known to you there may be a blind child

in the chimney corner of a neighbor’s house within a stone’s throw of your own home. Blind children are, as a rule, hidden away, kept in the background out of sight, and it is only by careful and per- sistent inquiry that their whereabouts can be ascertained.

Trusting, Mr. Editor, that I may count upon the heirty cc-operation of your readers, I remain,

Yours faithfully,

C. F. Fraser, Superintendent. Sckool for the Blind, Halifax, Ang. 11, °97.
