Since the new psychopathic ward at the Norwich .state hospital was opened this spring, the state has had its first ward of this' character in operation, and tho new s25e 600 building, which was erected with accommodations for 100 pa- tients, has Been abundantly proving what effective measures can be used in the treatment of psychopathic eases.
 Probably there is no more up-to-date building of it's kind on the Atlantic coast, pr. Franklin s. Wilcox, superintendent Of the hospital. has seen to it that every modern means for the diagnosis and treatment of mental diseases has been provided in the new building, and the reports of what has been accomplished there in the treatment of mental cases have become so thoroughly konwr that members of some of the most prominent families in the state have becexle voiun- tary patients there and have been dis charged recovered or greatly improved.
 Recoveries accomplished at such insti- tutions as the Norwich state hospital have operated in the past few years to change the old conception of such insti- tutions in their fight against insanity. The fact that there are more applying for admission to such institutions does not necessarily imply according to Dr, Wilcox, that the number of insane in the state is increasing, but is merely be- cause people recognize that there is no loss of self-respect in seeking treatment there.
 Acting on the belief that it is useless to attempt the cure of mental disease as long as the patient is suffering from a pronounced physical ailment, Dr. Wilcox has instituted a system by which every patient received is put through a rigid physical examination in which every member of the hospital staff participates. An important detail in this is X-ray pho tographs of the head which are taken with the improves equipment with which the psycopathic ward is provided. With photographs of the body also any growths in head or body are revealed which may have prejudiced the mental disorder and also reveal whether the condition may not have come from an injury.
 The presence of faulty teeth Is also revealed by the X-ray and these are re- moved. Over 5 900 have been pulled in the last year. Pus sockets at the roots of teeth often contribute to nervous
