Preventing insanity.

From the Chicago Tibunc
The interesting and important cen
ference for mental hygiene has
emphasized the comparatively new
thought of prevention. One of the
chief reasons. il not the chief. why
public opinion is languid on this
subject is that the layman looks upon
insanity almost superstitiously. as some
thing inherent. arbitrary and generally
incurable. He does not realize that III
sanity is mental disease. varying widely
in its causes. its approach. its nature.
He does not realize that some Of its
most numerous forms are preventable.
He does not realize that in many cases
early observation and treatment mean
cure. He avoids typhoid by care as to
by fresh air. careful feeding and other
simple methods. But as yet he wholly
lacks a realization that diseases of the
mind, or many of them, can and should
be dealt with on preventive lines. The
movement for mental hygiene is one Cf
the most important phases of conserva-
tion in this land of intense living. II
must be accelerated by the wide circuis-
tion of the very grave facts OF the extent
Of mental diseases. and also by the edu-
cation of the public to realize that in
sanity is subject TO preventive science.
and that an enormous aggregate Of heart
breaking human misery can he avoided
by multiplying and perfecting our
agencies for discovering and dealing with
mental diseases In their early stages.
