Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Future of the Disabled Soldier I have written this book in the hope that it will help those to whom we owe so much - the men disabled while protecting our hearths and homes from the ravages of the savage enemy. It is sad for those left behind to mourn the loss of a soldier killed in the War. But his fight is over; the wounded men, hindered by their injuries, have still to fight the battle of life. Much is being done to help them. Their Gracious Majesties, the King and Queen, whose sons run the same dangers as their subjects, have set us a noble example in this work as in all others appertaining to the War. Much is due to Queen Mary's encouragement of the efforts made at Roehampton and Brighton, to train these disabled men in skilled occupations. Although much has been done, there is yet still need for further effort. Already the disabled soldier is to be seen begging in the streets. We cannot entirely prevent this degradation, yet we can do away with any necessity for it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Thus equipped, they may confidently look for ward to a future of normal human work and play. The brave men disabled in this war will expect no more;' the public should tolerate no less.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Retraining Canada's Disabled Soldiers For the purpose of re-establishing in civil life those ex-members of the Canadian Forces so far disabled by service as to be unable to resume their prewar activities, Industrial Re-training was commenced by the Canadian Government in 1915. Mr. W. E. Segsworth, a mining engineer, was appointed Director in July, 1917. The salient features of the Canadian system have been outlined in this volume so that they may be available to those interested in the re-training of the disabled, whether by war or otherwise. This publication should form a distinct contribution to the available knowledge on this subject. There may have been some who, not being familiar with the difference between training normal men and disabled men, were unable to appreciate the basic soundness of the scheme so promptly inaugurated in Canada, and who therefore felt somewhat sceptical of its effectiveness. The practical results obtained from operation over a period exceeding three years, demonstrates its success. Not only had Mr. Segsworth the vision to foresee the value of the plan when started, but with the courage of his convictions he made it effective when requested by me to do so. Although he retired from the active direction of the work nearly a year ago, the organization he developed has been capable of continuing what he so well started, despite an amazing growth in the number of men seeking and receiving the benefit of re-training. An indication of the rapid growth of the activities of Industrial Re-training since Mr. Segsworth became Director in July, 1917, until he retired in March, 1919, to resume his practice as a mining engineer, and thereafter, is obtained from the following: - When the present policy of re-training was adopted and undertaken by him in July, 1917, there were but 638 men in training classes of all kinds. The men receiving their re-training were for the greater part to be found in class rooms which were shared by those taking convalescent training. By December of 1917, the groups were divided, there being at that time 954 men in re-training and 2,199 in convalescent classes. The work has steadily and rapidly grown to the present date, December 31, 1919, at which period there are 23,626 men receiving re-training and 9, 505 graduates. Of the men in retraining, 12,342 are attending schools and 11,284 are training in industries. Classes for convalescents are providing occupational work for an additional 4,323 hospital patients. The figures as of December 31, 1919, include 7,454 minors, young men who enlisted prior to their eighteenth birthday and who, through war service, suffered severe interruption to their training for civilian life, provision for whom was made by the Government as from April 16, 1919. Quite rightly, Mr. Segsworth maintained that unless an unequivocal survey of results was continuously made, the value of the expenditures in money and energy could not be estimated. By his periodical follow-up at their new occupations of those who had been re-trained, data was secured which, I believe, is not available with respect to similar work being conducted in other countries. It might have been reasonably expected that with the rapid and unexpected sudden increase in the number undergoing re-training, combined with the general industrial unsettlement during the transition from war to peace conditions, there would be an appreciable drop in the efficiency of the work. An analysis of the follow-up surveys, however, shows that the organization stood this abnormal strain satisfactorily.

CHAPTER V THE NEW SCHOOLHOUSE Once the disabled soldier has made the decision to carry on, he should be given the advantage of a course of training wisely planned and capably executed. The plan of re-education is to train a man for a job in which he can perform one hundred per cent. efficiently in spite of his handicap, to find a process in the performance of which the disability will be no drawback whatever. With the wide variety of industrial processes today, it is entirely possible, with care and ingenuity, to find specific jobs which men with all types of handicap can follow. For the man with serious leg injury, there is sought a seated job; for the man with arm injury, work which can be done with one hand only; for the man with lung difficulty, outdoor employment; for the blind man, work in which the senses of hearing and touch are the primary essentials. For even the most seriously disabled cases, well-paid jobs can be found. The manner in which the problem is approached can best be illustrated by several specific instances. A man with both legs off, if trained thoroughly as a linotype operator, can hold down his job and deliver as much product as his fellow workman with sound legs. He comes to work in the morning, sits down on his chair, and need not get up from it until the close of the working day. The work is all done by. unhands..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rehabilitation of the War Cripple One of the major costs of war consists in the thousands of crippled and disabled men which are left in its train. In the past, such soldiers have been indemnified for their injuries - and insufficiently at best - by pension bounty or admission to soldiers' homes. In either instance, they have been relegated to a life of idleness and dependence. These circumstances tend to make for general demoralization, and the popular conception of the adult cripple as lazy, ill-mannered, and intemperate has too often had considerable basis of experience. This situation has been regarded as unfortunate but inevitable. The cripple has been considered as a helpless member of society, to be pitied and maintained, but to whom constructive assistance was not feasible. This attitude is in process of change, for it has been demonstrated that the cripple, though debarred by his handicap from some occupations, could, almost without exception, be fitted by special training for some trades in which he could become self-supporting in spite of his disability. Several influences contributed to progress in this direction. In the first place the great increase in industrial activity during the past two decades brought about a corresponding increment in the number of employees crippled in work accidents. Injuries were particularly frequent in the period before the advent of the safety propaganda. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
