is a wonderful provision that God -lias made for the blind. I have been totally blind for 50 years and now rapidly Josing my hearing. But even with-sight -and gone God opens the door to all thai is.happening in the world and-to the revelation of His truth, througla the doorway of one sensitive fingertip. Ordinarily the index finger of the hand Js the reading-eye of the -blind person. Very few read with any other' or with all the fingers.

Each finger must be trained individually. If a -blind person should lose the seeing-finger it would be necessary to teach another finger how to read. God has given this wonderful gift of touch to the blind-and has inspired many people to provide books and magazines for the blind, which the TJ. S. 'delivers postage free to any blind persons anywhere in the country." At the age of 75 Mr.

Junkins was baptized by Pastor Wilson and united'with the Advent Christian Church. Because the Bible is not printed in simple Braille type, Mr. Junkihs mastered an entirely new alphabet, known as the Moon type. For the past ten years he has been an ardent student of the Scriptures and expects to speak in the near future on "What a Blind Man Finds in the Bible." Mi-. Junkins is now 8 years age and enjoys an active life, walking throughout the Kittery countryside wherever he desires.

The music in the service included sev- i era! songs by the children's chorus -of the daily vacation Bible school, a tenor solo by Albert L. Sprague and a trumpet solo by Augusta Tobey. Many visitors from other states are in attendance each Sunday. CLEAN UP. This flier in aa anti-gas suit Is cleaning up hfs gas contaminated plane following the aerial "war raid" on southern England.

Junkins of Kittery spoke on the theme, "God's Wonderful Gift to the Blind." Mr. Junkins stated that he suffered the loss of his sight nearly 50 years ago. He accepted the situation little dreaming it possible that he could ever read by touch. An aged blind! woman who was a summer resident of! Kistery met Mr.

Junkins and persuaded him to attempt to learn. To his surprise i and delight he discovered that even though 50 years of age, the index finger of his left hand was sensitive to the' GOLEMAN FAMILY The Coleman Family association will hold its annual reunion next Saturday at the Newington Town Hall.
