to feel that in every one living there
is a spark of ambition, honor and
ideaIity which can be made to glow
and burn if one puts the right tinder

What is the percentage of alco-
holics in the Ford plant?" l asked.
Il don't know" answered DR.. Els
man. 81 would judge, however, that
it is considerably less than in other
large manufactures"
Il don't particularly care what it
is,' SAID Henry Ford. IF man gets
drunk, he gets drunk, and he needs
to be helped to break the habit if pos
sible.7
There, you see, was right. Henry
Ford does not care anything about
being general uplifter or the peo-
pies reformer. 1t is the individual
that interests him, and on these lines
his new hospital will be run.
There will be plenty of Gods pure
air and sunshine. Lots of pure water
and hydrothearpic treatment used.

BOOZE AND DOPE VICTIMS FIRsTIN HENRY HOSPITAL
BY Idah McGlone Gibson,

DN Iudl AlCblOilt NllDoOIl1
Detroit, Aug. 9.-The hospital which
Henry Ford is building in Detroit will
not be formally opened until Septem-
Der, but already they have arranged a
few rooms to take care of alcoholic
and drug addicted patients.
"Why do these patients come
first?' | asked Mr.. Ford.
"Possibly because they have the dis
eases which affect all large manufac-
turers most, he answered, "and pos
sibly because they are the ones that
we can reach through our own
physicians and nurses easiest. If there
Is sickness in any of our $4,000 fam
lies in Detroit the husband generally
calls his own physician. However,
he would certainly not think Of ask
ing his physician to treat him for a
taste for alcohol or drugs, and it
is there where we can step in and help
him"
Right here learned something
about Henry Ford. He is a pro
nounced individualist. He likes peo-
pie, not the people He is interested
in humans more than humanity. He
is the kind of a man that believes the
individual must be helped now.
All the people about Henry Ford,
when speaking of his projects and
plans, say: every man in the Ford
shop gets $500 a day" MI. Ford
says, leach man gets $500 a day.
And that is the difference between
Henry Ford and the great average
of our sociological workers and propa-
gandists.
He is almost Tolstoian in his SIM
plcity Of thought and manner
Il am going to turn you over to
DR.. Eisman," he said. HE is the
man who will have charge of the
alcoholic and dope departments OF
the hospital
| found DR.. Eisman a keen-eyed
young mani imagine that most of
the men near Henry Ford, in business
capacities, are under forty-with ali
the enthusiasm and energy Of youth.
In answer to my question he an
swered, "No, we have no secret for
mula by which to treat alcoholic or
drug addets. We will treat them
by the Town method, which has been
given to the medical fraternity.
THE first thing that we shall do
will be to clear up their ivers and
fortify their hearts, and in that way
minister to their minds"
Can alcoholism be cured -
"les-wait a minute don't mean
in the sense that you can cure small
poX or whooping cough, but it can be
cured in the sense that you can put
the heart and other physical organs
in good condition by the use of tonics,
fresh air, sunshine and proper food.
In this way you have strengthened
will-power and character. Then it is
up to the patient himself
"After you have had a patient here
once and done all you can for him and
he has a relapse, what will you do?
Will you let him come back?'
DR.. Eisman's face grew stern, IF
it's up to me-" he said, Il shall net.
! want to be able to say TO these fel-
lows, Now We have done all we can
for you the rest remains with you.
Right here Henry Ford's eyes began
to twinkle, and he put in quietly, "Oh,
probably we can give him another
chance. 1t is rather too bad, isn't it,

There are fools aplenty thru out
the Earth,
Since ever the world began,
But the saddest fool is the maid
I, who says:
Il will never be fooled by man.
And the maddest fool is the man
who swears
Be fooled by no woman he'll be,
While the gladdest fool is the fool
who smiles,
sThey are all silly fools-but me-
But the wisest fool in this foolish
world
Is SO to our follies schooled,
That he laughs as he flirts his jes-
ter's bells:
"Why, it's rather a lark to be
fooled"
