Program and Tea Planned
To Aid Institute for Blind
Phoenix Phoenix Lions club auxiliary will sponsor a silver
tea and a program concerning visual handicaps Thursday, March
20 at 8 p.m., in the Phoenix Community building. This will be
their money-raising-event for the year as their part in the state
Lions auxiliary project toward assistance of the Oregon state
school for the blind.
Walter R. Dry, superintend
ent of the state school, will be
here as the guest speaker for
the tea and he will display ma
terials used at the school for
the public to see.
Those wanting reserved seats
may call Mrs. John P. Hartsook,
telephone 2-6637.
No admission will be charged
to attend but the proceeds from
the silver tea will be sent to the
school. .
A residential school is main
tained by the state at Salem for
the purpose of educating those
children who, because of defec
tive vision, cannot make satis
factory progress in the public
schools. It operates under the
Oregon State board of control
and works closely with the state
department of education.
Children without sight or
with insufficient vision to read
print are taught Braille and
handwriting. About one-third of
the students are in this group.
While education is the pri
mary purpose of the school first
consideration is given to the
restoration of sight and conser
vation of vision.
By 1949 Dr. Dry came to the
conclusion that "the best way to
teach the child - would be to
teach the parent how to help the
child." This proved, to be a
large project and since the
funds, like those of the public
schools are intended for the chil
dren of school age, Mr. Dry, a
Lion's club " member, turned to
the auxiliary of downtown Sa
lem for help. ;
The first Oregon institute for
parents of preschool blind chil
dren was held that summer on
the Oregon State school cam
pus. Twenty-three mothers, six
fathers, and twenty-six visually
handicapped children were en
rolled. For a week they lived on
the campus and the parents at
tended lectures and demonstra
tions while the children were
cared for by "baby sitters."
The "baby sitters" were mem
bers of the auxiliary to the Sa
lem Lions club and other Lions
auxiliaries in the area. In 1950
the state Lions club auxiliary
adopted this as their major pro
ject and each summer since, a
similar institute has been held.
The sixth institute in 1954 was
attended by 51 mothers, 21 fath
ers arid 63 children. A total of
213 auxiliary members from 24
clubs volunteered as "baby sit
ters." The mothers of the blind
children are informed that when
they go to the institute that the
auxiliary members who give
their time will care for the chil
dren. Without the financial support
of the Lions auxiliaries through
out the state and the personal
interest on the part of the indi
vidual members the institutes
could not be held the officers
explain.
Money sent to the school cov
ers numerous items and services
which otherwise could not be
available.
