Helen visited the World's Fair in the summer of 1893 along with Miss Sullivan and Dr Alexander Graham Bell. That visit remained etched in her memory as the manifestation of her thousand childish fantasies. It had seemed to her as if she was making a trip around the world every day in her imagination and she had seen many wonders from the farthest corners of the earth, marvels of invention, treasuries of industry and skill and all the activities of human life. She had visited the Midway Plaisance which had seemed to her like a scene out of the 'Arabian Nights,' there was the India of her books in the curious bazaar with its Shivas and elephant gods, the land of the Pyramids concentrated in a model Cairo with mosques and long processions of camels, lagoons of Venice, Viking ships, and so on, in short, the world in a nutshell brought to her by the World's Fair. Helen had also been fascinated by the model of the Santa Maria, the ship which had been steered by Columbus along with the hourglass which had belonged to him. Mr Higinbotham, the President of the World's Fair had given Helen permission to touch the exhibits and with an insatiable eagerness, she had set about the task. Everything had fascinated her, the French bronzes, which were lifelike and representative of angel visions bound in earthly forms. She had learned about the processes of mining diamonds at the Cape of Good Hope exhibit.
