DR. James G. Greggerson, who lee
tures on chiropractic, is one of the
real characters of a profession rapid
ly coming into its own, in more ways
ithan one, and is, perhaps, the best
example, in the profession, Of the
truth OF the chiropractic doctrine OF
a power within" that moulds the
destiny Of the individual.
''Dr. ,lim," as he is called, is of
the old log cabin type thaf is rapid
ly becoming extinct. He was born
mid the Pennsylvania hills and dur
ing his childhood learned his letters
by system in which the hoe handle
was the chief inspiration His early
life wa spent where the cabbages
grow, and he went directly from
this primary school to the United
States regular army.
The happy possessor of rather
remarkable physical organism, he
made his impress upon the company
in ways that are not adopted in
drawing rooms.
Upon his discharge from the ar
my for disease incurred in the line
of duty" he proceeded to search for
health and for fifteen years he
searched in vain, until finally he
started taking adjustments from the
pioneer chiropracbor in the district
in which he lived, with such good
results that he quit his business and
went to school and studied chiro-
practic.
His success as a practitioner was
years he not only won financial in
dependence, but also contributed to
the literature Of chiropractic some
gems that mark the highest point.
The following are some Of the pro-
ducts of his pen:-
I'VE chiropractOrs work with the
subtle substance of the soul. We re-
lease the prisoned impulse, the tiny
rivulet OF force, that emanates from
the mind and flows over the nerves
ito the cells and stirs them into life.
We deal with the magic power that
transforms common food into living,
loving, thinking clay; that robes the
earth with beauty. and hues and
scents the flowers with the glory of
the air
"In the dim, dark, distant long
ago, when the sun first bowed to
the morning star, this power spoke
and there was life; it quickened the
slime of the sea and the dust OF
the earth and drove the cell to union
with Its fellows in countless living
forms. Through cons Of time 1t fin.
ned the fish and winged the bird
and fanged the beast. Endlessly II
worked, evolving its forms until II
produced the crowning glory oi
them all. With tireless energy II
blows the bubble OF each individual
life and then silently. relentlessly
dissolves the form, and absorbs th'
spirits into itself again.
"And yet you ask, Can chiroprac
tic cure appendicitis or the fiu?'
Deep within US somewhere, II
every one of us, there IL q something
that stirs at times and breathes up
on the dying embers Of our soul
and fans them into fame tina
touches the stringed instrument cal
led our mind and produces a singl
note of genius-and then receds

School Work

Owing TO the late organization Of the
depa rtment with reference TO the
school year it has been impossible thus
far TO visit every school in the county,
but by the end Of the year 2,594 school
children had been examined. In every
case the pupils weight and height were
taken and recorded. as well as general
body measurements. These were later
entered upon the charts to be hung in
the school room, so that developments
in weight and height may be registered
each month. All defects in the child

advised by written note whether to con-
suit physician, oculist or dentist. Thus

Sanitary Work

In innumerable ways the sanitary
conditions in the county are bad. The
accompanying illustration gives some
idea Of common conditions TO be found
almost anywhere in the county. The
department is bending every effort to
have Kentucky Sanitary Privies con-
structed wherever possible. Work OF
this sort is necessarily slow and much
educational work must precede any
productive efforts. Thus far seven san
itary privies have been constructed and
80 residential sewage connections have
been made
