An unemployed "blnek-coated" worker arrived at the clinic in a state of nervous breakdown. He improved under treatment, and was passed to the occupational section. There he took up modell. ing and casting, a mode of ex- pression which seemed to help him to clear away any fantasies that still clung to him. He is now in employment.

EFFECT ON NEUROTIC CHILD
Similar resulta have occurred
among neurotic children. One shy girl of even who rarely spoke in the presence of strangers was encouraged to draw. Gradually the little patient began to chatter naturally while she worked, the occupation apparently having pro vided her with a stepping-stone to the world of reality and to contact with other people.
In the London Instituto's scheme for occupational treatment a wide choice of work is available. The number of equipment includes
looms. Other crafts that may be studied under expert volunteer teachers are:-
Drawing and painting, - rug- making, embroidery, rain work. rush baskets and mats, papler mache, modelling and casting, fretwork, dressmaking, lino, cut- ting and printing, cane work, and leather work.
