THE World Against Him"

You've heard of the vivisection
of animals in the name of science,
but have you ever heard of the
sacrifice of a human being in the
same name? In THE World
Against Him" one of the Incl
dents has to do with the operat-
ion by a pair of INSCRIPTIONS
surgeons on a little crippled girl.
The surgeons know that the op-
Grafton will cause the death of
the girl but they are so anxious
to try out the experiment of cut
ting the spinal cord that they
perform the operation anyway.
The girl dies on the operating
table.
The brother OF the girl, Mark
West, who has made tremendous
sacrifices to secure the money
with which to bring his sister tc
the east to have the operation
performed in the hope of bring
ing her crippled limb back tc
normal condition, learns of the
diabolical doings of the two sur
geons in a strange manner
What Mark does then, forms one
of the movie best plots seen.

! When the senate disposed of the ad-
