REMEMBER BLIND
SUO DAY, OYV. 11
November 11. "Blind Sunday"
there nxill be taken up in every
church, a special collection for funds
to carry on the work of the "Louis
iana ('ommission for the Blind."
Every person who attends any of
the services will be asked to con
tribute.
The Commission. which was or-1
ganized about two years ago, has'
done splendid work during the short
period of its existence It conducted
for over a year the "Workshop for
the Blind" in Camp street. where
brooms. mops, mattresses. rugs.
hammocks, etc. were made and sold,
thus giving employment to many
blind persons who would otherwise
have been forced to accept charity.
At the Fair in this city last Novem
ber one of the most interesting and
widely commended exhibhlts was the
one showing the various occupations
open to those who go through life
sigh:less. The Commission has also
encouraged the work of home teach
ing of the blind, and many who
would otherwise be a care and prob
ably a burden to the home circle.
now busily ply the needle, guide
nimble fingers over the raised let
ters of the "blind" books. and in
many other ways occupy their time
usefully.
Besides the wonderful work al
ready accomplished, the wholeheart
ed members of the Commission plan
great things for the future. Lou
isiana is one of the very few states
which does not provide a home for
the homeless blind and it is the hope
of the Commission to have at an
early date a modern, thoroughly
equipped place for the housing and
teaching of these afflicted. Caring
for the soldiers returning blinded
from the battlefields and teaching
them useful occupations, is another
project in view.
It is plain that this important
work requires funds, and the Com
mission now comes before the public
for the very first time to ask every
individual-white and black-Cath
olic, Protestant and Jew-the mem
hers of every denomination and sect
-and those who profess no relig
ious belief-to contribute. Every I
one who thinks for a moment of
what it would be to be deprived
even for a short time of the sense
of seeing, must feel that there could
not be a more urgent reason for
putting the hand into the purse and
giving generously.
It is the sincere hope of the Com
mission that every one will answer
this appeal and help this cause in
the substantial way which will guar
antee its continuation in the future.
Let every one why attends divine
service on that day give freely.
Those who cannot go to the churches
should send their offerings either to
the churches or to any of the mem
bers of the Commission.
Miss Edna Kleinkemper is an en
thusiastic worker for this very
worthy charity and she will be'
pleased to accept any contributions
sent to her.

ENSINH KOPPFL 'S
CASE CLEARED
Ensign G. H. Koppel. I'. S. N. It..
arrived at an Atlantic port recently. 1
aftter several months' strenuous ex
periene on one of the navy ships
in European waters, and as or
dered on duty at the Brooklyn navy
yard. until his health, which was
impaired, is better.
Not having received any letters or
papers while abroad he (lid not
know of the publicity given the
trouble he had with the commander
of his vessel until his arrival in this
country, and he now makes a state
ment that the trouble was due to a
misunderstanding which caused his
suspension from duty aboard ship.
The accusation made was a misuse
of city funds which the New Orleans
authorities explained was an impos
sibility, as he had never handled any
public funds and this clear'ed up the
matter.
Mr. Koppel also states that he did,
not try to get out of the navy. al
though ae offered to resign when
he found that he could not satisfy
his captain. He says his enlistment
was patriotic, and that he volun
teered for service on active sea duty,
but was not familiar with the du
ties of an ensign at sea, not having
had sufficient training for this ser
vice. This caused dissatisfaction to
his commanding officer, and caused
him to apply for a transfer to naval
reserve duty or to some other vessel.
the commander of which would bear
with his inexperience.
This transfer was recomended by 1
his captain, but disapproved by the
department as it desired him to stay
on board for instruction and train
ing.
