Text Appearing Before Image:
toits universal trutch; but at last a blindleader of the blind has been foundwho leads neither himself nor thosejhe seeks to help into the ditch, butrather steers them carefully and cer-jtainly away from the morass of pov-(erty, inefficiency and disillusionment. Sir Arthur Pearson is indeed a won-:derful man, for just when his busv:life seemed over by reason of the af-fliction of blindness, which has stead-ily overtaken him, he finds his realand lasting lifework, and makes him-self the champion and the inspirationof hundreds of men blinded in thewar, who, but for him, might be in-!ellned to think they were of littlemore use in the world. Sir Arthur had established a greatpublishing business before he was 30,and even now he is just a year over 50and still a young man in spirit. Infact, this splendid work ajnong blind-ed heroes of the war has rejuvenatedhim, and It is safe to say that he is ahappier-hearted man today than everhe was.
