V 'W' l Qrfiroloecfic 661150 One of the Clinics held at the Philips- burg State Hospital which gives us an opportunity to help in the transforma- tion of many young lives from an out- look of hopelessness and despair to that of hopefulness and a courageous facing of the future is the Crippled Children's Clinic. For more than twenty-five years, these Clinics have been held at the Phil- ipsburg State Hospital. The Hospital provides the room and the facilities of the Operating Room, X-ray and Physiotherapy. The Clearfield and Centre Counties Society for Crippled Children pays the Surgeon and his as- sistant and also pays for corrective ap- pliances such as braces, shoes, and crutches for the children whose parents are unable to do so. The Service rendered to these crip- pled children are of the highest quality obtainable. Dr. Royal L. Simon of Wil- liamsport, Pennsylvania is the present Orthopedic Surgeon and is very ably as- sisted by Dr. John Shoff, a member of our Hospital Staff. newmolieraloy 661450 The Pneumotherapy Clinic, in charge of Dr. George Taylor, is a service to tubercular patients receiving collapse therapy under the program of the State De- partment of Health. Treatment of these patients is started in one of the State Tuberculosis Sanatoriums and is continued here following their discharge. This service makes it possible for these persons, who may be under this care for several years, to be at home with their families. Some whose physical condition permits light types of employment, may be able to do some work and be treated at the same time. 38 link-
