THE PROGRESS OF
CHIROPRACTIC
Bv merit alone Chiropractic has grown from an idea in
the mind of one man in 1905 to the second largest health pro
fession in the world.
There are now approximately 25,000 practitioners, more
than seventy-five schools without about 6.00 students. Thirty
nine state governments have recognized the science as distinct
and different from anything else on earth.
This growth in less than twenty-five years has been, not
only without the aid of other professions engaged in getting
the sick well, but in spite of their utmost efforts to prevent.
Chiropractic lias never had a single dollar of endowment
from state or national governments. It has overcome the pre
judice of the public, the opposition of other professions intent
on its extermination, and adverse laws in every state in the
union.
It has recruited its patients from among those upon whom
other methods failed, and with these failures of other meth
ods upon which to prove its efficiency it has grown like a
green bay tree.
