Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biennial Report of the Trustees and Superintendent of the Institution for the Instruction of the Blind, to the Legislature of Mississippi: For the Years 1892 and 1893 As monthly reports are submitted to the Board from each teacher as regards the advancement of pupils under their charge, I do not deem it necessary to repeat the same here. Suffice it to say the teachers are competent and faithful in every respect, and have at heart the interest and advance ment and prosperity of those under their charge. It was my pleasure to be present at the convention of superintendents and teachers of the blind of the United States and Canada, at Brantford, Ontario, in July of 1892. The meeting to me was not only pleasant but profitable. The most important matter that came before the convention was the publication of books. The government of the United States has appropriated the sum of $250, 000 for the educa tion of the blind within its borders; this amount is placed in bonds bearing interest at 4 per cent.; the interest, amount ing to annually, is used for the printing of books for the blind, the publishing house being located at Louis ville, Kentucky.
