for the intelligent voters Of Oklaho-
ma to go on record against the low
ering Of standards of medical eduea-
ton already set up in other states.
Fifth We call your attention 70
the fact that the law we seek to in
woke is already adopted in most OF
the older states of the Union.
Sixth The effort to set aside this
law of the legislature of your state
is only an effort to permit lily pre-
pared men and women to go out
among the people, to hold themselves
out as doctors, as capable of taking
life and death in their hands and as
suming the function Of advisor in the
greatest emergencies confronting the
human being,
Seventh: We submit that before
any person is allowed to assume the
function of advisor to the sick, he or
she should be required to undergo a
long course Of study and show their
fitness to diagnose, recognize and
treat disease before they are permit
ted to hold themselves out as such
advisors.
Eighth. If the hogs and cattle of
our farmers are kept free from dis
ease by the use of yaccines and ser
ums it i'll becomes any set of men
to decry their use in the human be-
ing to prevent disease, and this in
substance is exactly what the Chiro-
practic profession is attempting TO
do.
Ninth We have no objection what
ever to a person employing any
pf 1t1p1irinn +
ment or healing he desires but we do
contend before anyone is allowed to
assume that function. such person
should be required to most arduously
and intelligently study every phase
of the human body, its peculiarities
and ailments Such restrictions are
properly prescribed by the state as
| they are in other matters requiring
! scientific research. We believe our
legislature studied every phrase Of
| this matter in the weeks it was pre-
sented to them and that their act
should be sustained.
Tenth Finally, we submit that
this is a time when every theory.
every procedure has an opportunity
to be tried We are in a world war
| and men are no longer moved lay
sentiment The thing that can serve
is used; the thing that cannot serve
is cast aside, Proceeding upon that
basis, the United States army and
navy now have more than 10000 doc
tors looking after the health of the
boys who go out to fight for our
country, but in neither army or navy
| is there a single Chiropractor

USE OF VICTORY
FLOUR is URGED
NO OTHER BRAND FOR SALE
NOW IN TWO OKLAHOMA
COUNTIES

The use Of Victory mixed flour to
the exclusion of all other brands in
Oklahoma is urged by c. B. Ames fed
eral food administrator for Oklahoma,
In an appeal to county food administra
tors who in turn are expected to see
that the appeal reaches retailers and
householders.
Victory mixed -four now is on the
market in Oklahoma in considerable
quantity and more mills are preparing
to manufacture the product The
flour contains so per cent wheat -four
and 20 per cent substitutes.
Probably the first county in the
United States to go on an exclusive
Victory mixed -four basis is Kiowa
county, Oklahoma. Retail merchants
in this county at meeting recently
agreed to handle only Victory -four.
Similar action has been taken by the
Coal county merchants.
County food administrators have
been requested by Judge Ames to call
meetings of retailers and urge them
to take his coutrse. II this is done
Judge Ames believes the problem OF
putting the state on a Victory flour
basis will be solved.
The use of Victory mixed -four is a
convenience not only to the retailer
but to the housewife. The consumer
can purchase it without substitutes,
so the transaction between the house
wife. and retailer is simplifed Any
waste of substitutes is oOyiated by the
new system.
The price of Victory mixed flour can
not exceed the price of wheat -four.
Complaints concerning high prices Of
substitutes therefore are done away
with under the new system
Some mills in Oklahoma now are
making Victory flour and these find
that the demand for the flour assures
them a good market Millers from out
side Of the state who cater to Okla
homa business also are pressing their
brands of Victory mixed -four to ad-
vantage The widespread use of Vic
tory flour makes it evident that mill
lers who do not make the product
soon will be without a market for
their wheat flour.
The use OF Victory mixed flour is an
international measure evolved by
Herbert Hoover. By its use we help
carry out the conservation program
agreed upon at conferences in Europe
attended by Mr.. Hoover and the food
administrators OF Great Britain,
France and Italy.
when we eat bread made from
Victory flour we are sitting at a come
mon table with our allies and we ask
