The service club knew, only too well, that normal children in grade and high schools could turn out the “shush” emblems by the gross in only a short time. But here was a way in which the less fortunate children could do their bit. ” 8 ” THE BLIND CHILDREN are taught to make the symbols in their classes. They carefully fold and
unfold the pipe cleaners until they can “feel” they
are in three even portions. Snip go the scissors. By fingering and refingering an S model, tne children have gotten the feel of an S. They mold the pipe cleaner secuions. The red string is folded about a piece of cardboard to get just the right length, cut and ate tached. When finished, they are carefully counted into bundles of 25 and tied with a string. So enthusiastic are the children about their work that they even take it “home” at night to “speed up
production.”
” ” ”
ASSISTING WITH the work is a group of women
working through the Board for the Industrial Blind. They come in for their materials or Miss Mary Cain, the field agent for the board, sees that it reaches them in their homes.
Most of the women whom Miss Cain contacts are women who care for their own homes. They don't see well enough to read. Some are knitting. Others
