Books For the Blind By FREDERICK J. HASKIN
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. Making books for blind veterans is the newest kind of "after the war work" to become popular. Knitting needles and embroidery hoops are being discarded for the metal slate and stylus with which Braille books are handwritten. Clubs and Red Cross chapters are busily punching out stories and articles in the code of dots which is the blind man closrat conecting link with writte nthought. There is always a need for books for the blind. The big cities have their Braille libraries, but the selection of
books on the rhelves is always limited. The novel you buy for a dollar or two and tuck in your overcoat
pocket would cost $20 in Braille and would fill three or more large tomes. Libraries for the blind are slowly growing all the time, but. since the war blind have been added to the number to be provided with Braille reading matter, the Red Cross decided that extra effort was needed. For three years six chapters of the Red Cross have been making Braille books. Last fall the National Red
them to use in learning to read the type. But a band of volunteers, both men and women, began to transcribe stories and magazine articles into Braille under Mrs. Riders direction. Over 800 Books Transcribed Miss Hoyt explains that "as the veterans learned to read with greater facility and the transcribers became more proficient, longer and longer work was undertaken until at the present time there is nothing these devoted copyists will not and can not do. They have aided the masseur, undaunted by long lists of anatomical terms; they have helped the French student by putting his lessons into Braille for him; they have always been ready to transcribe just what was most needed, whether for entertainment or serious study. "As the result of their efforts," Miss Hoyt says. " the library at Evergreen now contains over 800 hand-copied volumes covering a wide range of subjects." The line of books that the veterans
Cross arranged to make this work a j want runs parallel with that in depart of the national program. Courses i mand in any library. Fiction is most
in Braille writing were prepared by Mrs. Getrude T. Rider, librarian of the room for the blind in the Library of Congress. Certificates were prepared for those who should master the system in order to make books for the soldiers. Miss Adelia Hoyt of the reading for
the blind says that for the present all
called for. But science, historv. bi
ography. poetry, and text-books for study are all popular. Recent additions to Evergreen library are such books as "The Still
water Tragedy," by Aldrich, in five volumes; "The Black Tulip," by Dumas, in five volumes; "Desert. Gold,"
uy isau irri';, in seven volumes; ana
Though the Moon print is easy to read with the fingers, it is less practical than the dot system because it takes up much more space. Each Moon type book requires more volumes, and so comparatively few are printed. "David Copperfield." which requires five volumes in Braille, takes 23 in Moon type. It is not very difficult to learn to write Braille accurately, we are told. The basic form for the letters is a row of dots, three high, like the six spot on a domino. Each letter is com
posed of part of this pattern. To i
make the letter q. for instance, only! Ihe dot in the lower right, hand cor-; ner is omitted. To make the letter a, which is more used, only one dot, that a.t the upper right hand corner, is made. Getting the dots even is made easy by a metal slate which has rows of oblong holes, or cells, one for each letter in thcline of print, running across the page. The position of dots within the cell is guided by indentions along the edge of the cell, so that in a practiced hand the blunt stylus punches the dots quickly and easily. When the page is turned over to be read, the punched spots on the working side become raised dots about one-sixty-fourth of an inch high. Slight as the raised points are to make them higher would make the book bulky the sensitive forefinger of tho
blind reader can quickly distinquish (he difference in the combination of dots. Because the page lias to be written on the back, the words and sentences are built by the copyist from right to left, in "looking glass fashion." Writing by Machinery The Braille typewriter is another of the three means of making books for the blind. The typewriter has
