President Conley's entry into osteopathy parallels the path of many another osteopath. The 1893 panic forced him to cease studying sanitary engineering at Purdue University.

His Minneapolis osteopath straightened him up by massaging the nerve centre in the small of the back, by directing Publisher Murphy to lie for a period each day flat on the floor with his hand under the small of his back. - ED.

When the American Osteopathic Association, meeting in Milwaukee last week, reached the point of electing a successor to President Victor William Purdy they chose an osteopath more typical than any of the foregoing. Perrin Thacher Wilson, the elect, unable to enter Harvard regularly, studied mathematics there as a special student. Meanwhile he earned his living as chauffeur for a lumber dealer. Later he delivered cakes and studied automobile repairing, eventually entered the American School of Osteopathy at Kirksville...
