I Can'T Hear You!

So often the cry from so many people.

For the first time in six years a Deafness Day, under the sponsorship of the Hard of Hearing League, was held in Gisborne on June 22. Members of the public availed themselves of the free tests which detected any loss of hearing. Out of 112 people tested, there were only four who had no hearing loss at all.

Mr J. E. Richards, after taking the audio tests, talks to Mrs B. M. Wells, B.E.M., national organising tutor for the league. Also shown are Mrs H. Harrison, secretary for the past 15 years (centre), and Mrs J. Bird, tutor.

Mrs Richards takes the tests given by Mr Rees Gordon, audio-vision technician from the Health Department.
