Book Description
Excerpt from The Teacher of the Blind "Sweet are the uses of adversity said Shakespeare and the truth of the paradox is once again exemphfied. As a by-product of the nations non-success in war, an educationalist nbw presides at the Board of Education. It may seem to most that so obvious a reform might have been had without so high a price, hut we are a curious people. Meanwhile, the general satisfaction expressed at Dr. Fishers appointment must be regarded as a, gopd augury. It betokens an unexpectedly widespread interest in education. In some quarters the interest has in it the vague appealing cry of a last hope. The crisis is so acute that folks are consenting to part with their dearest prejudices. Calamity is a potent solvent. If this attitude can be maintained it is probable that reforms in plenty will be forthcoming. It is fashionable to revile the bureaucrat but in this case we believe that the bureaucrat has been laboriously preparing for a well ordered revolution. He has been waiting for a mandate from his lord and master, the man in the street, and no it would appear that the mandate has been given. What have the blind to gain from this new attitude to education? The government grant for elementary schools is good. What is needed there is not more money but more control. For technical instruction larger grants are required. It is illogical that the State subsidy should drop from;I 3 to 3 3 s.when the pupil reaches the age of sixteen. There is another direction in which it may be legitimate to hope. At preant periiwssive powers are given to local Education Authorities to, accept p?;retain financial responsibility for the technical training of thr older pupils. In the south this permission is little used and the unfinished product passes to the ahen authority of the Poor Law.

Excerpt from The Eyes of the Blind: A Novel Though well accustomed in a stormy land to the roar of the wind, the wedding company yet stood as if turned to stone by the sudden stoppage in the ceremony. Glance sought glance in puzzled questioning, till at length in a lull Of the wind they caught the sound which the vicar had heard long before. It was the clucking of a hen who announces the arrival of an egg. The next moment the parson had thrust the ring into the bridegroom's hand, and was hurrying down the nave in the direction of the door.
