WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 21, 1923 BLIND STUDENTS ARE DOING WELL Hadley School Reports Show Good Progress Since the opening of The Hadley Correspondence School for the Blind, 360 pupils have been enrolled. Of these, many are taking more than one course of instruction, so that the number of courses given is much larger than the enrollment would at first indicate. Sixty courses have been completed by different students, some of whom are now taking an- other course. A number of the students have dropped out, through one cause or another; but the en- rollmenit is still encouraging, there being 290 pupils at the time of writ- ing. The work of the school has been given in part to the writing or trans- cribing of text books. During the last year the school has prepared a Primer for Adults used by those who are learning to read the Revised Braille system, a text book on Busi- ness Correspondence, a text book on Salesmanship, an English Gram- mar and a book dealing with the technique of the Short Story. "The Worker and His Bible," a little volume by Professor FEiselen, has been transcribed, and the school is now transcribing "The Essentials of Psychology" by Professor Pillsbury. Some little time back the Division of Visitation of Adult Blind, State of Illinois, purchased 100 copies of the Primer for Adults, to be used by the Home Teachers for the Blind "in their work. SLADE RECITAL WINS WINNETKA AUDIENCE Winnetka had a rare treat in the recital given Tuesday evening by Mrs. Louise Harrison Slade, and showed that it was appreciated. The recital had been planned for the Assembly Room of Com- munity House and some time before the hour set, it was evident that the room could not begin to hold the hearers, and adjournment was taken to the church. The larger room also afforded an ex- cellent setting for the full and rich voice with which Mrs. Slade blended her pro- gram with four groups of songs, old and new, classical and farm ballads, humorous, like "The Mouse Trap" and "Specially Jim"; and soul-searching, like "The Time of Making Songs Has Come," which was written just after the composer had lost his son in the war. The program was further enriched by the artist's liberality in responding to repeated encores. That evening of song will long be remembered, and it will not be forgotten that its pleasures were solely due to the generosity of Mrs. Slade. The church and the com- munity are fortunate in the assistance of singers, who to their art add the spirit of joy to their service. "Tree To Tribune" Film Viewed at Skokie School More than 700 school children and their parents saw "From Tree to Tribune," a Tribune owned moving picture film, at the Skdkie school last week. The pictures showed the transformation of virgin in Canadian timber to roll print stock and fin- ally into the finished product, The Chicago Tribune. Charles A. Kinney, director of shop work, obtained the film from the Tribune company. Mr. Kinney and Miss Florence Brett took members of the class in journalism through the Tribune plant last Monday morning.
