AB This is an account of the methods used in rehabilitating disabled soldiers who after previous wars would have been condemned to a life of uselessness and pauperism. While much of this work is still in an experimental stage and it remains to be seen how much reconstruction is possible and what are the most effective methods to employ, yet any account of the plans being followed either in this country or abroad for the rehabilitation of crippled or disabled men is of interest. The material has been collected from the Red Cross, the Medical Departments of the Army and Navy, and military and civilian workers in this country and in Europe.
