Since establishing an institution in
Oklahoma City, the Inter State Doc

be proud of in the handling of diff

treated many times before. Some at
the great eastern institutions, many
have visited the different springs and
others by the best physicians in their
own community.
This does not mean that the Inter
State Doctors perform miracles or
that they can or do cure everything.
But il does most conclusively prove
that Oklahoma has an institution that
keeps abreast OF the best thought and

NO BAN ON WINE FOR
USE IN CHURCH RITES
Wine and Beer Amendment Not Nee
essary to Secure Beverage for
Sacramental Uses

Lansing, March 5.-A widely circu-
lated report to the effect that unless
the wine and beer amendment is adopt
ed wine for sacramental purposes will
be unobtainable in the future, was
branded as an untruth today by the
Michigan anti-Saloon League.
"It is lawful, under our present sta
tute, for pastors to purchase wine for
sacramental uses," declared Grand M.
Hudson. The law says:
"'Every registered druggist or
pharmacist keeping drug store, who
is permitted to do so as herein provid-
ed, may, by himself or his CLERK, who
is registered pharmacist or regis
tered druggist, sell intoxicating hq-
uors in the following cases:
"'Wine for sacramental purposes to
any clergyman having charge of a
church, or to any recognized official
thereof upon the sworn, written, sign
ed and dated application of such cler-
gyman or such official
advocates of the beer and wine
amendment have been stating that
unless the amendment is approved
wine for sacramental purposes will be
forbidden. The aid of this, of course
has been to obtain church support for
the beer and wine measure.
eff this amendment is defeated, the
present law will continue in force, and
as above indicated, there is under this
law no ban upon sacramental bever-
ages. Unless we desire the return OF
the saloon, the wine and beer amend
ment should be defeated"
