FOR Deaf Children of sound intellect. The pupils are
taught to use and understand ordinary speech. The

the age of six, but advice should be obtained as soon as any
sign of deafness is observed.

The following classes of deaf children are admitted :—

1. Children born deaf, or who have lost their hearing
   before learning to speak.
2. Children who can hear a little, but are too deaf to
   be taught in an ordinary school.
3. Children who have lost their hearing after having
   learned to speak.

Parents and other persons acquainted with such cases
above the age of 4 are invited to communicate with the
Director, or with
