FOR THE CRIPPLED SOLDIER 149 lowest circles, but the surroundings, the beautiful designs that we gave him, developed in him a de- sire for creating beautiful things, and he became a very skilled craftsman. Another case was that of a young man who was born with his hands in an abnormal position, ren- dering them practically useless. We taught him show card writing. He held his pencil in his left hand, and he was able to draw and make letters very well. Another young man, whose right hand was paralysed, just had sufficient power to hold his paper and pen, to do mechanical draw- ing. A man who had paralysis in both legs, and who needed two crutches, as both his legs dangled under him in a very unseemly fashion, learned the trade of chair caning, and during the sum- mer vacation he managed to get the contract for a large club which needed several hundred chairs, and this cripple engaged ten able bodied men to work for him. A boy with a very bad deformity of the hip needed two crutches to go about the workshop, but notwithstanding this he was able to work very well.
