Dancing Is Mental Medicine - Sick minds seek alluring but unsafe refuge in miasmatic dream worlds. The great curative effort in all state hospitals is to draw them back to the world of reality by wholesome, normal interest. Recreational therapy uses various forms of diversions, entertainment, and play to attain this end. Here is a class at Ypsilanti State hospital employing dancing as a means of regaining mental health. Art work has concealed the identities of the patients.
