ticnt to regain control Of his limb.
1t was to bring these once paralyzed
limbs back to normal use that the toy
shop, the basket and rug weaving and
the clay modelling were added to the
hospitals reconstruction plan.
Miss Elizabeth Renshaw and her as
sistants in the toy shop see to it that
all of the work is curative. Warriors
who won the Croix de Guerre for their
work on the battlefield hesitate at first
to turn their thoughts to childish
trinkets.
Toy Work Fascinates Men
but it isn't any time until they are
fascinated with the work." Miss Rem
ncr said, "and it is hard to keep them
from using their well hands or their
strong feet on the machinery in order
to hurry the completion of the toy. But
the value of the shop is the exercising
of the crippled limb. The men with
drop feet are put at tasks where they
use the jig saw. The coping saw is
given the men with paralyzed hands.
Often soft clay handle must be made
to fit the hand at first, because the
fingers cannot close over the ordinary
handle. Gradually, as the muscles are
trained, the handle can be changed until
the patient is able to use his fingers
normally"
Miss Margaret Strong is in charge of
the basketry and rug weaving, where
finger work is so essential. In the
clay modelling classes the men with
crippled hands begin by simply rolling
clay balls for twenty minutes each day.

to fasten a glass eye in to complete the
rebuilding Of the face. SO the doctors
took skin from another part of the body,
made the eyelid and a groove below to
hold the glass eye when it was put in.
Private k is now one OF the best
looking men I ever saw. The scar in
his forehead. where the bone was slit,
is aImost' gone. His glass eye looks
perfect and his nose is all right.
"Tn some cases cartilage from rib
is used to take the place of a missing
bone in the nose. In many cases new
eyelids have been formed by taking skin
from the leg or from the forehead"
Before the rebuilding of a face, a
plaster cast is taken of it.
at is quite simple process Mrs.
Chesney explained. "Nnsclinc is rubbed
over the eyebrows, cyclashes and the
front of the hair. The patient is first
given close shave. because the plaster
adheres to hair. | put sort of paste :
board ruff over the head TO keep the
plaster from running down farther than
need be. Then | just take paint
brush and paint the plaster over the
face. / used to put glass tubes in the
nostrils. but have found that unneces-
sary. Now | just paint around the
nostrils, leaving holes. When the plas-
ter is dry it comes off easily. 1t is
perfectly harmless, even where there are
flesh wounds. BY making casts before
and after operations we can keep n
fairly good record of cases.
Equal wonders have been performed
in the nerve eases at the hospital.
Where, in ante bclIum days, a para
lyzed arm or leg would have been am
putated, surgeons now operate, cut out
dCadpned nerves, splice the good ends
together and put them back into work
ing order. As much as three inches of
nerve may be cut away and the severed
ends pulled together SO they will grow
and finally operate.
Lieutenant Colonel Charles II. Fra =
zier. formerly professor of surgery at
the University of Pennsylvania, is in
charge of the nerve cases. The opera :
tions are long and complicated, but
most of them have proved wonderfully
successful. The arm or leg has to be
worn in splint for months after the
nerve has been spliced until it is thor
oughly knitted together again. Then 1t
takes many months longer for the pa =
