1. There are 81 drugless cults
in California, chiropractic being
only one of them. If chiro-
practors are granted special
board, the other 26 are equally
entitled to special boards.
2. With 27 varieties of boards
to examine 27 varieties of cults,
the state would lose proper con-
troll and could not protect the
lives and health of its citizens
from the incompetent, unskilled
and unscrupulous.
3. The chiropractic initiative
is based on the false pretense
that the present California
Board of Examiners is unquali-
fed to examine chiropractors.
All competent applicants can
now secure licenses by passing
the examination and complying
with lawful requirements.

Crandail's-sHelf's Oasiss with
Neal Hart.

In 'Helrs Oasis" presented YES

arranged for the first four days of
the current week at Crandalrs
Theater, are combined powerful
drama, an abundance of heart in
terest and more thrills than there
are plums in a fruitcake. The sub
tect will be recognized by many as
clever film adaptation of william
L. Roberts great stage success.
The Fighting Parson." in which
the stellar role is played with over
mastering effect by Neal Hart.
The title evidently Is derived from
the fact made clear in the picture
that in the heart of the leading
bad man of the little Western set
tlement in which the action is laid
the powers of evil always have
reigned until forced out through
the gentle minfstrations of a beau
tiful girl who comes to the village
as an evangelist. Actuated at first
purely by a desire to protect an
unprotected young woman in a
town unsafe at its best, the rustler
who finally becomes known as "the
lighting parson" succumbs more
and more to the good influence
which the missionary brings into
the life of the community. OBJ
viously, the action of the subse
quent intervals of the narrative is
pregnant with both romantic and
sensational possibilities. 1t will be
patent to all who view the film
that none of these possibilities for
intense dramatic effect has been
lost.
Neal Hart in the leading role con-
tributes a forceful characterization
that Is fairly matched by the in
genuous charm exerted by Janis
June as the girl. The production
is a worthy one.
Quite matching the major feature
of the bill in popularity is Harold
Lioyd's latest comedy. Get Out and
Get Under" which forms the COM
panion feature of a duplex program.
In this splendid two-reel comedy
Lloyd further substantiates his
claim to the supreme place in film
dom as the comedian without a
peer. His is uniformly keen, abso-
lutely devoid of any objectionable
feature and thoroughly legitimate.

Leew,. Coiunbia-.Beho,d My wife. y

Loew's Cofumbia-'Behold MY Wife,
The opening at Loew's Columbia
theater, yesterday afternoon at 3
o'clock, revealed the first showings
of the seventh great super-program
of the season at that theater. in
which a photo-dramatic offering of
the most fascinating drama tic
power and love interest of the most
poignant description, Behold My
Wife" was offered as the featured
attraction of the bill. This is
George Melford's famous production
for Paramount.
Behold My Wife" is based on the
famous story, by Sir Gilbert Park
er, entitled The Translation of a
Savage" Director Melford has
brought Mabel Jufienne Scott to the
chief role and Milton Sills. Elliott
Dexter. Theodore Roberts and 9TH
ers hold responsible parts.
The story, which has been adapt
ed to photoplay form with remark
able fidelity to the dramatic value
of the original story by Sir Gill
bert Parker, opens with the scheme
of revenge plotted by a young
Englishman against his family. be-
lieving his family responsible for
the English patrician to whom he
had plighted his troth.
In Bitter spirit of revenge, the
young Englishman purchases from
an Indian chief the Iatter's daugh-
ter, who is in love with the Eng
ltshman- The man marries her and
sends her back to England. a raw
savage. to disgrace his relatives.
Then he sinks to the depth in the
lumber camps. Several years later
he fights his way back to manhood
and. possessed of a desire to right
the wrong he has done the girl,
he returns to England to find that
she has been carefully protected by
his family, schooled in social and
other usages and that her natural
aptitude has brought the most as
founding fruit.
The Englishman. startled at the
vision OF civilized beauty that is
his wife, is further amazed to dis
cover that she is also the mother
of a 3-year-old son of whom he is
the father. With this as a back
ground for the climax of the pro-
duction, the girls love for the Eng
lishman is suddenly returned with
interest, and a new vista in her
life is opened up as he folds her
to his breast.
As splendid as this story is, it
Is augmented by a number Of short
length screen attractions Of genu-
inc appeal, including a comedy sub
ject, the latest issue of the Selz-
nick News, and other subjects. Di-
rector Leon Brusiloff. of the Colum-
