hibition at Gen. Dill's Office.
STATE HOUSE CALENDAR.
Regular Meeting of Governor and
Council, Friday, Feb. 9, at 10 A. M.

The trustees of the Maine Insane
Hospitals have filed their first annual
report since the reorganization under
the laws of 1911. The report calls at
tention TO the fact that within the past
few years the treatment Of the insane
has materially changed.
THE hospital. instead of being for
the custody and care of patients, con-
templates more individual treatment of
diseases With reference 10 cure; to this
end patients are given much more free
dom. both rs To open air and manual
labor. when physically able" says the
report.
This plan has been of great value
and is found to be agreeable 10 u
large class of the inmates, many of
whom beg the privilege of working in
the laundry, kitchen. bakery, sewing
rooms and the various occupations
about the farm. This gives them di-
version in normal manner and tends
To break mp the constant introspeetion
and INSTRUMENTATION, SO common
among this class of patients. To Sue
cessfu1ly minister to a mind diseased
a gradual return TO normal occupations
aud amusements is found to be the true
method"
The trustees state that all methods
of physical restraint arc absolutely
abolished and no cases, however Vio-
lent, have failed to yield to milder
treatment The criminal insane have
been given more liberty to mingie with
each other. apparently to the benefit of
all concerned. especially as regards the
health OF the inmates
The following is the only comment
made by the trustees upon the changes
in personnel, which have taken place
at the Maine Insane hospital at Au-
gusta during the past six months:
Some changes have taken place in the
officers and employees. BY resignation
and otherwise hut most of the places
have been satisfactorily filled. others
VIII be filled as soon as suitable par
ties are found 10 the satisfaction OF
the hoard.
OF the Augusta dairy herd the re-
mort SAYS: 1t seemed best to the spe-
cial committee ON the farm that
number Of the cows should be killed
for beef. and new ones purchased, as
the cost of keeping good cows is no
more than for those that are old, dis
abled and past their usefulness. Some
changes are desirable in the conduct of
the farm and these viii be brought
about in the course Of another season.
The trustees state that the cost of
lighting the Augusta institution is
more than three times as much per
kilowatt hour as at the Eastern Maine
Insane hospital at Bangor. ~ proper
foundation for installing a lighting
plant now exists. The hoard believes
thai we should at the earliest possible
date proceed to install such plant
II viii be in the interests of economy

HANDICAPS CHILDHOOD.

Dr. MacNicholl further states "Nnety-one per
centum of the children of drinking parents in the New
York schools suffer from functional or organic
disease" Imperfect childhood means imperfect man
hood and womanhood, and imperfect and vitiated
citizenship; and by and by it means nation of de-
generates The nation is composite of individuals
and ITS moral life and physical efficiency cannot rise
above the average of its citizenship Therefore it
must be true that surely, inevitably fatally, alcohol
is lowering the physical efficiency and the moral value
of this people
These are facts Men ought to listen. Ministers
ought to thunder from their pupits and labor with
ceasing between Sabbaths stay the hand Of the
monster that makes it harder for the church to win.
And every patriot conscious of these things should
necessary, abandon business and pleasure, until the
victory this evil be complete
"A NATION HALF DRUNK AND HALF SOBER
CANNOT SURVIVE"
"A nation half diseased and half we'll cannot live
but here show hreeffhs of the rising generation
mentally and physically diseased says Dr. Mac
