Louisa Lee Schuyler thanks President Roosevelt for inviting her and her sister, Georgina Schuyler, to visit the White House before March 4. She inquires about the most convenient timing for their trip. The recent Conference on Children impressed her friends, and she is sorry to have missed it. Schuyler is sending Roosevelt an advance copy of her paper, “Children who need not have been Blind,” and she hopes that he has time to at least look at the pictures.
