To educate the deaf sad the blind to think and read and write, and to give them a trade or occupation in addition, is a noble charity. Be- sides the expenses of schoor-couas, teachers' support, the cost of apprenticeship and the like, some pupils have to be aided in conveyance from home to the school-room, and some must receive food and clothing, or they cannot come. Is there a better show for one's aims or gfforts than in the relief above indicated ?
