 tesque stories which are told regard ing the treatment of the insane and to convince those interested in the care of the unfortunate, how much certain of recovery they are when re- moved from the influences and envir- break them down, to institutions where they can be properly treated. There are in the state today over a dozen private institutions of the first rank, accommodati ting thousands of patients, They are as finely built and as plea sanity located as the best summer ho- tels and are handsomely furnished and fitted with the most approved Scien- tific paraphernalia for the trea tTnent Of nervous and mental disorders. ''Their grounds are spacious and offer all forms of outdoor sports and diversions for those who are well enough to en- jov them. Our public institutions are being constantly enlarged and improv- ed and are under the most competent

Notwithstanding all that has been done the stigma of, the old coun- ty poorhouse system of caring for the insane still remains. It is the hope interest and cooperation of the pub lie and to prove to those interested in the care of the mentally unwell how greatly the conditions have changed They will then realize their responsibility, not only to the patient but to the public at large. The Den nison case, which has occupied so much space in the papers of late is a typical example of the dangers Of keeping unbalanced persons at home probably be called in June. It will take place at the Indian Harbor Yacht Club, Dr. Hitchcock, acting host at a dinner given to the members.

 Scott. leaving the cell. said:
 CT have had a long talk with the young man and he seemed very sincere in his statements. There is no ques- ton that -Nlolter is innocent of any crime.

 When the police learned of Wo1ter's changed condition they were plainly angry. but insisted they had enough circumstantia1 evidence to secure conviction of first degree murder and Inspector Titus insisted that the law yer or no lawyer, Wo1ter would finally agree to tell all he knows.
