Evenings by Appointment it THIS and THAT By SUE BERNARDINE 0 dark, dark, dark, amid the blaze of noon! Milton GREAT COURAGE BROUGHT BLINDNESS to the Canadian hero, Ronald Hewlett, nephew of Mrs. Fred Applerose of San Bernardino.

(As a youth he spent a summer here, and still keeps in touch with San Bernardino friends.) After twenty-three missions over Germany in World war II, without a scratch, Ronald became an instructor in a military camp. Here, in a grenade accident, he saved his fellows by quick and heroic action at the cost of his own sight. MANY AND PAINFUL operations were performed an effort to save his eyes, without avail. At last, accepting his blindness as final, that same great courage which brought about his blindness enabled him to pick up life again and conquer his tragic handicap. Today, at 38, Ronald Hewlett is executive director of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind in Alberta.

His life is devoted to helping the sightless help themselves and to furthering interest among the sighted public in their fellow blind. Canada is very proud of her hero you frequently find articles and pictures of him and his inventions in Canadian newspapers. HE WILL NOT USE a sreing-eye dog, feeling that dependence on one reduces initiative. He invents gadgets io aid blind hobbyists. And so capable and self-reliant is he that besides using all the hand tool equipment in his basement tvorkshop, he operates a power combination drill and sandcr.

Moreover and this will make experienced craftsmen sit vp and take notice he runs a buzz saw! He is a champion golfer his father holds a little tinkling bell over the hole, and Ronnie gauges distance and direction by the sound; he is a soloist in his church; he writes poetry; he is married and has two husky little boys who warn sighted visitors to be careful when descending the steep stairway to the workshop because they can only see, not "feel" like Daddy. THAT'S IN CANADA. San Bernardino has its own physically blind, their heroism, their problems, their strivings to retain contact with life and make themselves interested and interesting, useful citizens. There are approximately 700 blind in San Bernardino county, 300 in Riverside county. (Physically blind, that is the mentally blind may number many more.) GO OVER TO THE BLIND CENTER at 633 Fourth street, San Bernardino, if you want to see some courageous people the blind trying to help themselves to life, and the understanding sighted who are devoting their time to helping their fellow sightless do just that.

Both groups need your help. We dropped by last week and found Mrs. Nina Esterbrooks and Robert Jones in consultation over the center's problems. Their tremendous energy and whole-hearted concern are backed up by an excellent board of directors with Earl Webb as chairman. Mrs.

Emmett J. Culligan is taking particular interest in the Thrift shop. BUT THEY NEED the interest and help of the general public for volunteer workers, transportation for the blind, discarded clothing and "white elephants" for the Thrift shop and buyers as well. For the Blind Center must be self-supporting through the shop's sales; it is not supported by the Community Chest. WITH THE DESCENDING of blindness, a person's whole world is shattered and must be built again, painfully and slowly.

It takes a lot of stubborn determination to pull yourself up out of the valley of gloom. Any sighted person could accept deafness or other physical disability with more equanimity than he could accept loss of sight. The newly blind must establish contacts with society on a strange and bewildering basis. They must develop new techniques in such things as learning to feel at ease with blind or sighted persons, in eating, making change, in object perception and getting around. A blind man recently remarked, "One of the longest distances I have ever known was from the plate to my mouth when, as a blind man, I commenced to rclearn my eating habits." THE SIGHTLESS FIND companionship among their fellow sightless at the Blind Center in San Bernardino.

There they may have letters written for them. There thry eon get sympathetic counselling if advice is needed with their problems. There they will find game rooms, radios, a beauty shop. With braille dominoes and playing rnrds, they can pass many happy hours in fellowship. That exceptional blind man, Burr Willard, is here again-, he says he will teach anyone to play canasta.

AT THE WATERMAN GARDENS Annex Community house, the blind have a field day each Thursday. Interesting people in varying age groups congregate there for classes and a get-together from the young to the man of 90 who met his sightless bride here a couple of years ago. There are classes with qualified teachers, assisted by a group of splendid volunteer workers ceramics directed by Marjorie Lou Smith beauty culture, diet, suitable clothing taught by Myrtice Strayhorn ballroom and tap dancing taught by Harvey Carroll himself two music classes instructed by Mrs. Stafford Willard braille by Mrs. Spaulding leather craft under Robert Jones Bible study, undenominational, with various ministers business highlights by the area's business men.

ANY BLIND PERSON who takes part in these activities will tell you that this weekly get-together is the highlight of his life. "ANTIQUES OF TOMORROW Pre-Nuptial Farty Honors Miss Williams A pre-nuptial courtesy honor-ins bride-elect Alma Geniece Williams was given by Mrs. Robert Terry, 3SSS Electric avenue, recently.
