FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW.

Read this and Learn the Truth.
In every community there are a
few people who knock" everything
and every body. Any enterprise,
any undertaking, and many indiyid-
ual citizens feel the effect of their
hammer" Chiropractic has had
more than its share of that kind OF
treatment, and the methods en-
ployed are revolving to men and
women of honest purposes.
From information reaching me at
various times during the past four
years in Payette; it seems there are
those who persist in mis-stating the
facts relative to ChiropTactic Ad
justments and the training and edu-
cation ChiropraCtOrs have had quail
flying them for their work. No
doubt. much that has been said
detrimental to Chiropractic. and for
the purpose of discourageing pros
pective patients from going to see i
ChirOpraCtor, is due to absolute ig-
nOranCe OF the facts. and I hope by
this means to place the reader right
on this much discussed, and dis
torted question
All standard Chiropractic Schools
require of the student a resident
course of study for a term Of three
years of not less than six months
each. To secure a license to practise
Chiropractic in Idaho, the applicant
must have had a resident course of
study at standard Chiropractic
school of not less than three years of
not less than six months each
All schools recognized in this
State, must give the student
1000 hours in class room, based on
so minutes to the hour (Not the
usual class hours of from 80 to As
minutes, and computed by the hour
as is done by most schools). The
applicant for 4 license is required to
pass examination on tine following
subjects: Anatomy, Physiology. His
tology, Symptomatology, Chemis-
try, Diagnosis, Dietetics. Hygiene
and Sanitation, Chiropractic Or
thopedy, ChirOpractic principles,
Chiropractic Jurisprudence, Nerve
tracing, PalpatiOn. Urinalysis, Ad-
justments The applicant must pass
a grade of % on general average. /
and not less than COZ on any sub
ject. We do not undertake to do !
if you will investigate in the right
you will find Chiropractors
are fully as well qualified for the
work they undertake, as any other /
school of healing.
When you meet up with a man
who is given to boasting of, and re- (
his educational advantages; /
Just shake him a little and you will
hear a rattle in his head. The
person who is really educated. and
bears some degree of refinement. |
does not need to tell people of it and
such persons do not make state
ments for the purpose of misleading
others.
I trust that, the facts l have pre-
sented will place this matter in the
right light with the reader, and L
invite a fair investigation. If you
wished to know the class of goods a |
certain merchant carried. would you
expect to get the proper information
Cthe truth) from "a competitative
dealer, or from some person who
had never been in that merchants
store? No, you would go to the
store for your information. which /
would be proper. The same truth
holds true in investigating Chiro- I
practic. Come in and get the
TRUTH, then exercise your own
Judgment. Don't circulate stories
that has no foundation of truth, :
whether done through ignorance or
otherwise.
