Wm, Edgar M. | Lip-reading Superseding the use of Signs by the Deaf and Dumb. "Clap your hands" said Miss Nurse, a teacher of a group of boys and girls in the school for the deaf and dumb. We who were visitors at the in- stitution were the only persons who could hear the teacher. The sixteen pupils--for sixteen is considered a sufficient number in a lip-reading class=could see the teacher, but could not hear her, or even say what she was saying, yet every pupil held up his or her hand eagerly, wanting-to carry out the-instructions of the teacher. Miss Nurse pointed to a boy, and he immediately rose and clapped his hands. "Run across the room, hop and jump" said the teacher. Every one or the 16 pupils understood perfectly what: she said, simply by watching the movement of her lips, and they were"all anxious to carry out her in- structions, We visited several classes, and found the pupils had acquired considerable ability in writing upon the blackboard, reading and speak- ing.
