PRESCRIBE EXERCISE
FOR THE WOUNDED
"PLAY.THERAPY" IDEA Is BEING
TRIED OUT IN CAMPS OF
CENTRAL MILITARY
DEPARTMENT.

Chicago.-'T prescribe an hour Of
volley ball for your stiff wrist this
morning" is being heard now in 6
dozen of Uncle Sans camps wherein
wounded soldiers are convalescing. Or
1t may be that the prescription IL

Joints are pretty stiff and the hinges Of
your hips don't work right. Suppose
you play arch ball for an hour today
and tomorrow and then prolong the
period Of play bit. This will do more
for you than anything else"
DIR. n. F. Kallenberg, chief Of Y. M
G. A. physical directors in the central
military department, with headquar'
tiers in Chicago, is receiving word al
most daily that the latest method OF
treating wounded men in government
hospitals in such cases as demand ex'
ercise of joints, fingers, wrists, legs OF
arms, is doing wonders for the sol
diers. They not only are throwing of
their ailments but are taking on cheer
fulness and a new interest In life, he
declares. The treatment is new" in
that medical men examine each case
and prescribe certain games to fit the
needs Of that case. No playing d
games requiring exercise Of muscles OF
joints Is done save under the direct su'
pervision Of a medical officer, Doctor
Kallenberg asserts.
Helping Government.
"Physical directors of the Y. M. @
A. are helping the government In these
matters at this time" explained Doc
tor Kallenberg. II understand the ap'
plication Of our theory that the playing

cess at various camps in the plain re-
construction Of the physical man. We
do not under-rate massage, hydro
therapy. electrotherapy or manual
therapy, but we are finding that speci-
fed exercise in play works wonders in
loosening joints and brings the man to
normal state."s
At the following camps the new
treatment Of 'play-therapy" is being
used successfully upon hundreds OF
wounded soldiers, sailors and marines

Sheridan, Fort Des Moines, Fort Ben

made now to establish the treatment

Is reported that Major Kelley at Camp

will ask the Y. Nj. c. A. for two men to
assist in directing wounded soldiers In
their games.

GOVERNOR SAYS MOONEY
CLEMENCYUNWARRANTED

SACRAMENTO, Cal. Nov. 3O.-No
further clemency in behalf Of Thomas
y. Mooney, convicted of murder in
connection with the San Francisco
preparedness day bomb explosion, is
warranted by anything within the
knowledge of Gov. William D. Steph-
ems, the executive stated in a letter
made public at his office.
"Of Moneys guilt there is, in my
mind, no question" the letter stated.
"In my judgment a grave injury is
being done labor everywhere" the
letter said, when it is made to ap-
pear by those who occupy places Of
leadership that organized labor cham
pions such a heartless and vicious
murderer as Thomas j. Mooney.
Il am convinced he had a part in
one of the most atrocious crimes in
volving reasonable purpose ever
perpetrated in the history OF our
country. Mooney and his associates
evidently were in sympathy with Ger
many's agents, who were resorting to
every desperate measure to thwart
preparedness of the American nation
for war"
