Book Salesman Wins
Verdict Against
Vice Society

NEW YORK, July 20.-The
court of appeals, it was learned
today, has upheld a decision
of the appellate division of the
supreme court affirming a ver-
dict of $4,000 which Seymour
H. Halsey, bookstore clerk,
won against the New York So
ciety for the Prevention Of
Vice.
Halsey, who was employed
by the firm Of McDevitt Will
sons, Inc, was arrested in
1919 on the complaint Of the
society for selling a copy Of
the book "Mlle. de Maupin,"
by Gautier, to a customer.
He was discharged by the
court of special sessions and
brought suit for false arrest
against the society. Supreme
Court Justice Wagner, before
whom it was first tried in
1919, ruled, as matter ot
law, that the sale of the book
was no violation of the law
against obscene books, and the
jury returned verdict Of
$1,000 for Halsey. The sp-
pellate division set aside the
verdict and ordered new
trial on the ground that the
jury should have been left to
decide whether the book was
obscene.
On the second trial, before
Justice McAvoy, each member
of the jury was provided with
a copy of the book, and they
returned a verdict of $4,000
for Halsey. The appellate di-
vision upheld this verdict and
the court of appeals took the
same action.

SICK WORKSHOP
Occupation Therapy Society
Discovers Light Work Is
..s Curative.
BY wILLENE TAYLOR,
Interna tionaI News Service.

NEW YORK, July 20.-A new
scheme for occupying the husband.
even though sick, has been added to
the housewives domestic lore. The
strong-armed helpmate returning
from the hospital after a shoulder
operation or a loin injury is put TO
work doing the old.time household
industries, such as weaving and
pedaling the loom, instead of being
allowed to convalesce in a wheel.
chair on the front porch. slipping
toddies and growing stiffer every
minute.
or course, a man might not be as
willing a worker I'm the home, bur
that's the way they handle him nj
the Occupation Therapy Society's
workshop here. Within the pic.
turesque shop several dozen men and
women sit weaving raffia, making
colored toys, planning lumber and
working gently at other employment.
They appear to be well, but they are
neurasthenic or hypochondriac or
cardiac convalescents. and they have
been sent to the Occupation Therapy
workshop by charity centers instead
Of to the almshouse.
Sick Men Are Workers.
The workshop" takes man
whose joints have stiffened from q
fall or an operation and gives him
something to do besides twiddle his
thumbs and think about his starving
family and hopeless future. 1t pays
him for his work, and the instructors
say that the salary check helps about
so per cent to cure him.
Occupational therapy first became
recognized following the tragedies
OF the war. The doctors found that
IL was wise to train a mans muscles
by gentle employment. However.
some physicians have opposed its
adoption in the hospitals. and very
few have Il in use. New Bellevue
here has adopted IT and has seven
regular teachers and curative
workshop. Then the workshop Of
the society is the only other one
here.
Light Work Is Curative.
Money will buy a massage for a
stiff joint at the rate Of So per fif.
teen minutes, but drawing the
handle OF a loom back and forth
will do just as much good, accord.
ing to the society. What occupa.
tional therapy really needs is more
nurses who understand kinesiology
that is. physiology plus occupa-
tional training. A nurse must watch
the temperature and pulse OF a
patient closely and know just the
! correct amount of work he should
have. Under proper treatment the
muscles respond readily. and In
many instances the patients become
