prominent men and women In the
medical profession, social work, bust
ness and lay field have banded them
selves together in the Minnesota As
ISOLATION for Crippled Children with
Governor Theodore Christianson as its
honorary president. The late William
Henry Eustis, himself a lifelong Grip
pie, who gave his entire life Of more
than eighty years to work with and
for these children was president emer-
titus of the association and its pres
ent work is carried on as memorial
to his great service.
At present the state has two hospi-
tails for INDECENT crippled children,
the Gillette State Hospital at St. Paul
and the Twin City Shrine Hospital In
Minneapolis, two public schools, the
Michael Bowling School Minneapolis
and the one recently started in Du-
luth, a state law for aid to special
classes for crippled children to the ex-
tent of $3.50 a year and the state divi-
sion of Re-Education to give voca-
tional training to all disabled.
In addition to these the state stands
in need Of:
AVdlldUkc 1dClllLlCS lIlCICdS-
ed from three to five times.
Convalescent care facilities.
School facilities in many more COM
munities.
A survey locating every crippled
child and disabled adult in the state.
Follow-up Work and encouragement
for every crippled child released from
the hospitals.
Assistance of disabled during their
vocational training and help in find
ing employment after it.
Because the meeting of the Inter-
national Society for Crippled Children
will take place March ID, 10 and 90
in Minneapolis, state workers are anx-
Association in every way in order that
the host-state may prove to its visi-
tors that it has not been idle. A COM
plete and state wide survey of all Grip
Piles, both children and adults is one
of the present detectives.
Many counties have already organ
lied and others are now getting their
"set-up" under the direction of Mrs.
E. G. Quamme, executive secretary Of
the Minnesota Association for Grip
pied Children of which Governor
Theodore Christensen is the Honor
airy President.
The object of the survey is to ascer-
tain how many cripples each county
has, their physical and financial con-
dition, what is required to cure or cor
rect their physical condition and what
is necessary to their education or in
dustrial rehabilitation. It is not with
in the province of the State Associa-
ton to assist individual cases but to
further the cause of all unfortunate
ones within the states borders. Both
civic economy and humanitarianism
demand that these cases be found
early and that information concerning
them be accurate in order that the
retaining process may be fastened.
County organizations will also &C
cept memberships in the state organ
ization which is offered by medical
men and interested men and women
of all professions who are volunteer
ing their services. Any interested
person may become member upon
payment of the fee which varies from
$1.00 for active membership to any
amount person wishes to give to the
support of the work.

STATE NEEDS
MORE HOSPITALS

That Minnesota still needs to make
more hospitals available for crippled
children to a considerable measure is
the rather startling declaration made
by authorities who have studied con-
ditions and made a casual survey of
the status of the physically handicap
ped within the state. Only two COM
munities in the state are giving their
crippled children chance in public
schools and there is need of further
specialized provision for the crippled
adult.
In order to meet this situation
