IMAGINATION AND THE SEEING HAND The suffering is deep that comes from a sense of Linworthiness for life, of limitation which unfits one to give service to those he loves, and to take his place with others as a normal, useful mem- ber of home and society. This suffering is thrust upon children of sensitive nature who are blind. They need help in such study and play as will give them a broad vision outside themselves and a courage of spirit to fight their way into helpful- ness to others and even full self-support when they are grown. Blind- ness does not mar the power to learn or to at- tain to great knowledge or wisdom; it merely re- quires a different channel through which sensations shall enter the brain. It does not hinder the asso- ciation of ideas or forma- tion of theories as in any child who can see. It does not hinder the ac- tion of the imagination. In fact the blind build up a very real and vivid world — and as we all know, the most beautiful world is that of the imag- ination. There might even be the question whether, other things being equal, one sees bet- ter with the hand or the eye. Surely it is true that the touch of the hand is very real and near, leaving nothing un- certain. This blind child can put together her reading and her various touch impressions and visualize the traveler in Arctic snows quite as well as can the child who has gained her ideas of snow and snowshoes through her eyes 574
