There is a kindly interest manifested by Supt
Perkins and the Matron towards the patients
everywhere in evidence; the unruly are governed
with a firm. though humane. hand and kind words
and acts are everywhere IN evidence to whom 1t
will apply.
The patients. through their environments, are
made to feel interest in the institution and it
is pleasure to them to keep it in order and thus
through this interest they do the work that they
like best and in this manner, giving them some
thing which will tend to take their minds from
their decisions, benefit IS enacted towards the
