Soldier With Many Wounds.
Thus far maimed French soldiers have been ablo to resume their occupations with far greater success than had been anticipated. One instance of the adaptability of these mutilated men is the case of Private Schuler, who suffered 52 wounds and who had his right arm amputated. He has resumed clerical work and in three months’ time has learned to write a fine cop-per-plate page with his left hand. Minister of Labor Metin has instructed (the official employment agencies not only to accept and act immediately upon all maimed soldiers’ applications for employment, but to provoke applications from such men by all proper means of publicity.
