White Cane Week “A man who lived about 700 years ago enabled today's blind children to read and write,” observed N. D, McKerracher, president of the Terrace Club of The Canadian Council of the Blind, now sponsoring White Cane Week with the CNIB. the genius of Louis Braille wha lost his sight when the awl he was using. in his father's harn- ess shop accidentally slipped into his eyes. At the first school for the blind in France, a small organization opened only qa few years earlier, Braille learned to read letters in raised type. But the method was not practical since the letters had to be. very large in order to be felt clearly, One day a French artillery man visited the school and showed Louis a system of dols that could be read in the dark, which he had introduced as a military code. Brallle saw at once the value of the system and set. ta work to apply the ralsed dot,to the reading needs of the blind. Braille - spent countless hours, often far into jon night, working on 1 the pro- ect.. After ‘hiany eats of persist- ence, Louls developed a practi- tal code. It. consisted’ of differ- ent arrangemerits. of 6 . dota, similar to thosé on a get of dominos, to répresent the let- tetd.of the alphabet..'Fhe dots are written by hand by pressing a: pencil-like tool, the stylug,, in- to-a sheet. of paper. ‘They,.can algo .be made “by. a “specially. de- ‘vised : ‘Braille: cwriter: or. printed biti a: press: designed foe the eet “The Braille: system “ag: AS The idea came about through |- typical of all timber bridges built by the B.C.

This system, requiring four glued-laminated, T-beam shaped girders for spans exceeding 90 feet, and two gir- ders for shorter spans, was developed by TPL Industries several years ago especially for bridges, It is the most econom- ical system yet developed . for this purpose. Since then TPL Industries hag specialized in. the manufac: ture and presure treatment of spans and supplied most of the them are the longest railroad span (182 feet), the longest ferry transfer bridge (140 feet) Cosmos ‘Walk which consists of five spans of 135 feet, with a total of 20 girders. a CFAC Poster Contest Starts 19th Round “The 19th Annual Canadian Forestry Association Conserva- tion Poster Contest went into full swing this week among art students. from grades four through to grade 12.
