...Osteopaths like to make signs-on office windows, in directories, on professional cards. Signs are the best means of showing the public that a new sort of medical practice has set itself staunchly up in U. S. life, and osteopaths have become skilled in their advertising use. But the finest sign that any osteopath had theretofore devised was a bronze one exposed at Kirksville, Mo., last week. It was fixed to a great boulder and lay hid under a cloth while several hundred U. S. osteopaths, at Kirksville for their 32nd convention, massed themselves before it. Two children dragged...
Thus recognized, the osteopaths at the Kirksville convention last week had little to rage about. They decided to fight this coming year for the right of a citizen to have the care of a licensed osteopath, if he wants one, when he becomes a patient in any hospital or other public welfare institution supported by taxes or receiving state aid. They elected as their next president Dr. D. L. Clark of Denver; to succeed Dr. George V. Webster of Carthage...

Disillusionment came when he found that protectorate was not the fund which is being collected for a Shakespeare Memorial Theatre at Stratford-on-Avon, already supplied with an honorary president in Elihu Root, but rather the brain-child of Dr. W. E. Dentinger, osteopath and musico-therapeutist, who is planning a Broadway Shakespeare shrine. Mayor Walker instantly withdrew his name...
Similar parallelism should be used in the staging of the plays. Shakespearean costuming in the hands of a musico-therapeutist could hardly be other than modern. The plays themselves are in no hands safer from mutilation than those of an osteopath. And the relative ideals of the two funds may be accurately projected by having the Stratford fund produce the plays that are beyond doubt Shakespearean while the Broadway Cathedral of the Bard rallies the flagging hearts of Baconians...
...assembled some of the conspicuous exploiters of borderline medicine in this benighted land. For example, in 1925 the chairman of the section on radiology was Mr. George S. Foden, a practitioner of electronic medicine, who read a paper on 'The Eye as an Index Factor to Personality'; Osteopath Francis A. Cave, an honorary vice-president of the Medical Liberty League, also devoted himself to electronic practice; William Howard Hay, chairman of the section on advanced medicine, had a diabetic cure and one for hay-fever; A. C. Geyser is a promoter of the 'tricho system'; George...
