To Return Forms

A deer harvest questionnaire
form will be sent to 30,000 of
the province’s ‘resident sports-

a)men who took out deer hunting

licences during 1966, it is an-
nounced by the Fish and Wild:
life Branch.

The postcardtype form is
designed -to gather from the

Sportsien’ whe “till. out. and
return the forms make a val-
contribution «to deer
management in British Colum-
bia,-said Dr. James Hatter, dir-
eclor of the Branch. He said
the information obtained was
unobtainable from any other
sdurce.

In. addition to the deer ques-
tionnaire, similar forms will be
sent to many of the sportsmen
who purchased -moose, grizzly
bear, mountain sheep, mountain
goat and-elk tags during the
open seasons. Forms will be
mailed within the next two
weeks,

Dr. Hatter stressed that a
report from an unsuccessful
hunter was just as Important
as a report which listed a full
bag limit-and urged all sports-,

'|men who receive forms io re-

turn them as quickly as pos-
sible.

Information from the ques-
tionnaire forms, examined to-
gether with that gathered by
constrvation officers and field
biologists, ig used to formulate

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
