To speak To To walk To hear I To learn l to Communicate Institute of Logopedics Wichita, Kansas 2 THE HARMONIZER INSTITUTE of LOGOPEDICS December, 1974 Greetings Barbershoppers: The one priceless gift ... the art of communication. All of us at times fail at communication. We fail to make our point. We fail to be understood. We are faced with the frustration of being at a loss for words. The boys and girls and men and women served at the Institute of Logopedics have special frustrations as they seek the one priceless gift. Their world of communications is filled with many barriers, but they work to overcome their handicaps. S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A. and individual Barbershoppers are to be commended for involvement in the work of the Institute of Logopedics. Thank you. We do not take your support for granted, and you should not hesitate to contact me with your questions or suggestions. Even as we all enjoy the many pleasant moments and sounds of this season, permit me to speak to a point of special concern. Traditionally boys, girls and adults have been referred to the Institute for evaluation and training by concerned and informed persons in their community. If there are children or families in your community who need help, contact me or encourage others to do so. Our Evaluation Unit will then determine if habilitative programing and financing are available. Your action now might provide for one more worthy person ... the one priceless gift.
