No. The Chiropractic and the Osteopath both aim to put in place that which is out of place, to right that which is wrong; but the Path- ology Diagnosis, Prognosis and Movements are entirely different. One of my patients, Mr. W. A. Casler, has taken both Chiropractic and Osteopoth treatments.

Be it further resoived, that we believe it the duty of public officials—especially those whose duty it is to educate the child- ren of our land,—to be guided and governed by the laws of the state, the customs of the people and the proclamation “of the Governor, in the matter of ob- servance of memdhrials and re spect for the nations dead—tor the memory of those who, in early life left home, family, friends and all that men hold most dear. and offered national unity, national glory and national ‘honor.
