The reason for a name change is in fact a recognition that the automatic generation of braille depends, from the point of view of optimal design, upon a consideration of the changes that eventually will occur in the braille code as a natural result of continual review by braille authorities to keep the code up-to-date.

Two phenomenal women were my first introduction to what an extraordinary teacher of students with visual impairments (TVI) should be. Adalaide Ratner, who planted the seed of literacy in me at an early age, thank you for showing me that my future would be limited without the dots. Thanks to Ora Potter who watered the seed and propelled me further into independence with her encouragement and no-nonsense attitude about blindness. I am grateful for my beautiful Little Lady Godiva who patiently waited through endless hours at the library and lying on her favorite chair in my study while I worked; never complaining when the embosser woke her up and never grumbling about the late nights and early mornings. I thank Amador, my husband, my friend, research assistant, and driver, with all my heart and soul.

    A TEACHER'S PRAYER Lord, I thank Thee for the chance to work at a task that makes the hours so full. Let me use those hours to guide the precious lives entrusted to my care in ways of good- ness. Help me to be calm in the face of disturbance, kind to all regardless of circumstance, tolerant when under- standing is lacking, and faithful in duties great and small. I pray for the strength of mind and body to do what is expected of me without losing my willing spirit. For- give the mistakes I made this day, and give me wisdom to correct them. In the name of the Great Teacher, I pray. Amen. --Frances H Butler MY CODE I have to live with myself, and so I want to be fit for myself to know. I want to be able, as days go by, Always to look myself straight, in the eye. I don't want to stand, with the setting sun, And hate myself for the things I've done. I want to go out with my head erect; I want to deserve all men's respect: But here in the struggle for fame and pelf, I want to he able to like myself. I don't want to look at myself and know That I'm bluster and bluff and empty show. I never can fool myself, and so Whatever happens, I want to be Self-respecting and conscience free. Author unknown.
