DR.. D. Fl. Calder, superintendent !,
the state hospital for the insane 4,

board Of insanity yesterday. Tho u

of the institution during the year, con

withheld for the biennial report to th,
legislature next year.
During the year 1872 patients wer,
admitted TO tho hospital, including A.
fecble-minded, and 81 were discharre'
as cured.
The average daily number OF patient
cared for during the year was az
though the total number in the ipstit1
tion at the close of the fiscal va
was 472.
The total expense for all purposes id
ing the year was $S0,7S469, which n

Synopsis of Report.
l. That the careful supervision
Of all details by tho members OF
the state board Of insanity, and
the amount OF food products pro-
duced by the farm and garden, the
making of all the clothing usod by
the patients Except men . suits) In
the sewing room, and the work done
by the manual training class in pro-
viding brushes and baskets Of all

the per capita cost at such low
figure.
3. That the labor thus afforded
the patients. coupled with work
along tho re"educational line, has
been of the greatest benefit to
them, not only physically but also
mentally, many Of them having
made rapid strides in mentality dur
Ing the past year. The fact is also
pointed out that the scheme Of ens<
ployment OF patients at useful labor
in the fresh air, coupled with the
amusements, has contributed large,
ly to the high percentage Of recov-
cries. 1t appears also that oil the
patients enjoy tho privilege of the
lawns and shade trees whenever the
weather Is suitable, and that they
are greatly benefited by the out
Of"door exercise and freSh air,
Salvation in Work.
Recognizing that idleness leads
to introspection, and that unused
function becomes enfeebled, the at i
tentior of the patient is directed to
useful, healthy activity. Educa-
tional occupation is the great fea-
ture of their treatment.
Tho system, Of absolutely no re.
straint, physical or drug, has proved 4
great success.
The feeble-minded department.
has had q most successful year, en-
joying the same careful supervision
as the rest of the patients. The
adoption Of the Montessori system
has been of great advantage to the ,
kindergarten department in which
it is gradually working the children
into the primary and grade classes.

partm ent receive careful training II

. HAT many thousands Of little

" HAT many thousands Of little
children in Salt Lake will be
made happy on Christmas morn,
ing with toys-the childish ideal
OF Christmas happiness-as result OF
the work Of the Order OF Good Fellows
is the opinion OF the royal ruler. He
declares that the order is growing daily
and that chapters are being organized
in clubs, stores, churches and lodges all
over the city. Everybody in Salt Lake
seems TO have acquired the Good Eel
low spirit, and those who can afford TO
be Good Fellows and have not joined
the order belong to minority.
Speaking about persons being ilnan-
cially able to become Good Fellows and
to help bring joy into the homes Of poor
children, Good Fellow had this 10 say
when talking to Tribune reporter yes
tcrdny:
Unlike most orders st doesn't
cost much TO become q Good Eel
low. There are no initiation foes,
assessments or dues. You can be-
come Good Fellow for nothing by
merely filing out an application
blank and then carry out your obli
CATION by the expenditure of sum
which probably would otherwise be
spent for something which brought
neither yourself nor anyone else
happiness. You know
HIt's always fair weather
When good fellows get together"
Sometimes Means Little.
During the Christmas holidays
there will be many gatherings
where tho participants will toast
one another with the seasons
greetings. Much money will bo
spent In having "good time"
which after the affair Is over Will
not mean much to the good fellows
who participated.
At these gath eringe of good fell
lows, happiness will reign and with
songs ringing clear the weather
will no doubt seem fair. But TO the
poor of the city who must needs
spend their pittance for fuel to keep
their homes warm, the weather viii
seem anything but fair and there
Will be no songs, either in reality
or In their hearts. The children will
awake on the day Of days to
presentless Christmas and the sad
ness Of their fathers and mothers
at not being able to buy toys for
them will be as nothing compared
to the children's grief when they
realize that they have no bright
toys like other children.
