Many have become adept In wearing

Italy School For The Disabled
Italy is educating all OF her disabled
soldiers. teaching them while they are
still belfast IN the hospitals. There
is little pain to some wounds" de-
cIared an Italian surgeon. and II the
minds OF the men are kept busy they
soon recover. This teaching has really
been a Godsend to some of the peas
ants who are rapidly acquiring knowl-
edge" Their treatment in manual
training is not unI4-s that OF other
nations, and as the italian is quick
to learn in mechanics hundreds OF the
men will be f-supportinT.

Many OF these men are well educated
and are anxious to do clerical work,
and it was found that they soon learn
the use OF special typewritars for the
blind. which. OF course. have raised

being carried on. especially with the
sightIess. There the men frequently
take their exercise IN rowing boats
under the guidance of their nurses
and there have been several spirited
contests on the Thames between crews

in fine physical condition during their
training in trades.

however prefer to work at tailoring
or shoemaking. Usually a wounded
soldier prefers some labor akin to that
by which he made his living before
the war.
An iron moulder who had lost his
arms became mould designer While
he was incapacitated for lifting the
heavy mouids he was able by the
use Of his artificial arms to make
drawings for them. A mason who
had lost his arms became stone de-
signer. while man who had been
waiter in restaurant and who had
lost his legs was turned out to be an
excellent sign painter. Men who
would become bookkeepers. expert &C
countants and stenogrsphers are sent
to a special school after which they
are given places in the Government
offices and State banks. The work
at Fort Biilez is regarded as little
short Of marvellous. Indeed. Il IS n

rebuilding OF men.
During the Liege campaign many
Belgian soldiers became insane and
these are housed in q special hospital

Rebuilding Faces

In France the work of rebuilding
men is going on in a literal sense. for
soldiers whose faces have been shot
TO pieces are actually having new
faces made over the old ones as well

The mutilation Of war is often so
horrible as 10 make the wounded
mans appearance SO repuisive that
even though he might be able to work
his appearance would be such that no
one would give him employment. So
France Is guarding against this by
making her heroes presentable. Sew
eral American surgeons are aiding in
this wonderful work.
The French method OF training taeir
invalid soldiers is chiefly a continue
ton of the study of symmetry Of
mind and body. 1t is a study Of The
utmost Importance at any time Tor
every year dangerous trades take
heavy tell OF MANNED and mu1Jated
men. One Of the studies is iu ucscu-
lar n movements. or. 90 other words
how 20 perform a given task with the
least expenditure OF motion and force.
Another is the training Of men in the
use Of artificial arms and legs so that
those who have lost their right hand
can do the same work with their left.
Manual training schools have been
established, and some OF the wounded
have already become self-supp
In the various trades. Men who have
been "gassed" are slow in recovering,
and even after they have recovered
are most susceptible to bronchial trou-
bles and can only perform light tasks.
Next 10 the blind soldier the ''gassed"
man Is the greatest problem.

German surgeons have used their best

ed Belgian soldiers who were disabled

The Belgians have always been fam
Gus for fine mechanical apparatus and
here they have showed their genius
in this line by the use of seven or
eight new scientific instruments which
measure precisely the efF1ciencv OF a
wounded man.
The use OF these novel Instruments
IS only one phase OF the great work
being done IN the training OF men for
trades. Men who have lost a leg
