New win dows were added, and a stairway and bulkhead cut through to the root on which a fresh-eir rest room will br equipped this summer. The patients work on men's shirts, a task which though not paying the highest wages has a fairly steady demand. The work in this factory is gradu ated both in difficulty and in time. Some patients who at Arat o.uld work only an hour or two are now doing practically, full time. They work in ideal conditions and under continued supervision. The usual accessories of welfare work are pres ent, such as lunch room, rest room and nurse service. None of the pa tients are paid more than they earn nor less than the union scale. Admission to the fautory is strict ly limited by doctor's orders, and ex aminations are repeated monthly. The committee endeavors by its visiting nurses to keep track of the patient's entire family, and has found in a number of cases that other mem hers than the one under treatment needed special care. In its rehabili tation process it includes the very. practical assistance of loans to star' patients in business. The toatl cost of the experiment for two years, including the cost of 'equipping the factory, was over $80, NOTICE TO MOB.RAG .C~ODIT. Tax Collector's Offce, Mandeville, Luisiana. June 3, 1916.
