" B—2 #s ATOTAESFOR ' RECENED HERE Applications for Licenses to Be Mailed Out by End of October. Receipt of the first batch of 1937 automobile license plates—with orange numerals against a black background —was announced today by Traffic Director William A. Van Duzer. At the same time, however, Van Duzer warned that all motorists who have neglected to settle for traffic tickets received during the last year must do so before they can get their new tags. “My advise,” Van Duzer said, “is to come in now and settle up and save a lot of trouble later on, when the rush begins and long lines are waiting at the license tag windows.” Van Duzer explained that police are checking unserved warrants against records in the Department of Vehicles and Traffic. No license ap- plications will be sent out to those with offenses standing against them. When such motorists come into ob- tain applications, the warrants will be served Motorists who have neglected to advise the department of address changes iikewise will receive no ap- plications as the blanks will not be forwarded, Van Duzer said. They, will be returned to the department to await personal calls from the ap- plicants who can be required to pay fines for failure to give notification of address changes within 72 hours. ‘The applications, which will be| printed by October 19, will be mailed out between October 26 and November 14. November 16. They will not be on | sale at the Traffic Department, how- | ever, until the 30th.

Dedicated to the purpose of making little chatterboxes out of children who can neither hear nor speak, the Rein- haidt School for Deaf Children, at Kensington, Md., today began twenty-ninth session. Ten children are enrolled &t this private institution where youngsters deprived of their hearing learn to read lips so readily that, after a course averaging eight years, they are able its | to enter public schools and continue their education with normal children. No sign language is allowed at the Reinhardt School. Indeed, the belief that sign lan- guage has no place in the instruction of deaf children was one of several fundamental theories which guided its founder—the late Miss Anna C. Rein- hardt—when she chose the nearby Maryland village as a likely location for the institution. D. C, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1936. Miss Reinhardt also believed that children, handicapped by lack of hearing, should receive special in- struction while they still are babies. And that a school for the deaf should by all means have the atmosphere of a home rather than that of an insti- tution. Alexander Graham Bell approved her plan and for years endowed a scholarship at the school. And in its 28 years 86 children have passed through its doors to enter high schools, colleges, universities and ister busi- ness and professional life. Since Miss Reinhardt’s ceath last year the school, under the manage- ment of Miss Anna B. Peck, an in- structor for 26 years, is continuing the policies of its founder. Children are not admitted after they are 6 years of age, and are not al- lowed to remain in school after they are 13. At the end of the average course students are equipped to enter the sixth or seventh grade. And the Spruces, & large, rambling, three-story house set back on a two-acre estats, is kept as much like an average home as is possible. Many of the children who are en- chool don't know even words ‘““mother” and “father,” Miss Peck declared, but Miss Rein- hart’s belief that “you must talk, talk, talk, and then talk to your deaf child, no matter how discouraged or tired you may be,” is the basis of teaching lip reading. “Sometimes we repeat the same word to a little child until it has no meaning for us,” Miss Peck explained, torical points of interest and muse- ums in Washington, the interest of ~ the student is aroused in history and the sciences. And in our school room we have toys and pictures rep- | resenting just as many objects as “but if we say it often enough the | possible. child will eventually understand.” After such laborious efforts alumni Modulation of the voice is taught|of the Kensington school have been through the use of rhythm lessons with the piano. And events are dramatized as much as possible in order to bring about understanding. “For instance,” Miss Peck said, “a part of our arithmetic lesson is to go to the store and make actual pur- chases, so the children may witness these transactions. able to enter a variety of businesses and professions, which include teach- ing, engineering, retouching, typirg and public health work. “Must of our students must learn to make their living,” Miss Peck de- clared. “And most of them select their life work without regard to their By visiting his- | original handicap of deafness.” Eleected by women thronghout the nation, Selby’s famous Style-EEZ shoes now come to the capital!
