He told how that at the beginning of the war it became apparant that some organized m ethod or providing proper recreation, both mental and physical, must be provid- ed for the soldiers in the canton ments and from this idea. evolved the present vast scheme of canton ment recreation.

The idea of society was to crush ana repress the prisoner until his spirit had been killed. He then went out into society again with nothing in ms mind but a burning desire for Vengeance upon the society which mad so treated him. Today the idea of penal institutions is different and the aim is to use these institutions as lever to lift Up those who have fal- len.
