TRAINING FOR
MENTAL CASES

The length to which the U. S. Vet
GRAMS Bureau is obliged to go in many
cases in order to reclaim disabled ex-
service men who are suffering from
mental conditions is strikingly illus
trated by the Silver Spring Training
School near Washington, D. C. This
school has been established with the
purpose of training neurotic, she'll
shocked and other nervous cases. It
is under the direct control and super
vision of the U. s. Veterans Bureau
and the training of the particular ben
efciary of the Bureau is supervised
both with regard to his educational
work and physical and mental we'll
being. Heretofore these men have
been put into training in various
shops or educational institutions to
compete with normal men in obtain
ing their required vocational training.
The result thereof has in many cases
been dscouraging to the U. S. Veter-
ans Bureau from both an educational
and financial standpoint. Very fire.
ouently the men would break down
mentally and become unfit for further
training.
The Silver Spring Training School
being equipped to give the men the
required shop training and having
medical facilities at their disposal, is
able to watch carefully the particu
lar training and to terminate his
training should his physical or men,
tai condition be deteriorated by rea-
son of his work. The result thus far
has been to obtain a rehabilitation of
approximately go percent Of the men
tai cases placed into this school.
Prior to the opening of this school
only a very small percentage of this
class of cases could be declared re-
habilitated by the Veterans Bureau.
A somewhat similar experiment is
being used by the U. S. Veterans
Bureau at Jamestown, n. D., in the
State Hospital for Mental Cases
which is used by the Bureau until bet
ter facilities are available. Two
teachers have been assigned to this
school and the mental cases of this
institution who are able to take any
form of training have been enrolled.
Basket weaving, reading, writing,
arithmetic, typewriting and similar
subjects are taught to the patients in
this institution. The benefit to be de-
rived from this work is two-fold;
occupational therapy and vo-
cational training. By occupatlonal
therapy is meant work which occu-
pies the mind of the patient and keeps
him from brooding or worrying. BY
vocational training is meant a train
ing which is given to the man which
will enable him to obtain a livllhood.
should his mental condition be clear /
ed away.
The work of training mental cases
is at best very difficult task. The
results in the early part Of the work
were very discouraging and 1t was at
one time thot that training for this
class of cases could not be used to any
advantage whatsoever. BY small
gains made from time to time the
correct method of approaching the
mans physical and mental condition
has been determined and gratifying
results are being obtained at the pres
emit time. Instead of the man becom-
ing a burden upon society in general
he is enabled to be Of some value as
an economic unit and in many cases
nearly able to entirely support him.

shows the progress made by schools
in this respect in the past few years.
The statement in part follows:
Service Citizens have been work

school attendance. There has been
marked progress made In attend
anoe due 20 their efforts IN cooper

The legal school year in Della

We find, however. that only a few
schools we're willing 10 accept the
minimum days In Kent county
only nine schools out OF los are con-
