OSTEOPATHS TO CONTINUE WAR ON HIGH HEELS Women’s Clubs Interested— Speaker Says Children’s Diseases Unnecessary. SWEETS STUNT GROWTH Special to The Times. CLEVELAND. July 23.—The twentyfifth annual convention of the American Osteopathic Association opened here today for a convention of one week with more than one thusard delegates present. Mayor Fitzgerald of Cleveland delivered the address of welcome. Dr. Hugh W. Conklin of Battle Creek. Mich., secretary of the Michigan State board of registration In osteopathy, and ex-president of the American Osteopathic Association, responded. Dr. William E. Waldo of Seattle, Wash., president of the American OsteopathicAssociation. In his presidential address, said: “The national osteopathic campaign of education against the wearing of high heels by women should be continued. It has met with favorable response by most of the women's clubs throughout the country, including the Y. W. C. A. “The osteopathic profession is opposed to the Owen bill because it creates a national department of health with a secretary in the President's Cabinet. The American people demand as large a vote in saying what system of healing they shall choose in case of distress, as in religious matters, and will not tolerate the Government’s forcing one system of healing on them. "We are opposed to the Kenyon -Fess hill because It goes even further and. like the Owen bill, creates State medicine and gives to one school of healing a tnonoply. Monopoly has been found t be injurious in the business field and has had to he curbed. Monoply in tha healing art will be found to be even more Irksome. "House Bill No. 2366, Introduced by Mr. Towner, Is equally pernicious. All Df these bills show the tendency of the American eeople to pass laws to do for them what they want and ought to do for themselves, but they do not went to do it. We need more education and less legislation in the United States, and It Is up to us as protectors of the public health to teach the people how to live.” DAINTIES ARE DANGEROUS. Traditions of medical science were thrown to the winds when Dr. E. O. Jones of Evanston, 111., declared that children's diseases are entirely unnecessary. Correction of diet and elimination will prevent these so-called diseases, said Ir. Jones. “It is much safer to be an American soldier on the firing line in France than an American child at home.” declared the speaker. “If you hate your child, cram him with dainties." “The very latest up-to-the-minute researches by the world's greatest biologists prove that sickness Is caused by the absorption of poisons from dead cells, not by germs." said the speaker. "Germs are present because they feed on dead cells, but the germs themselves are not the cause of disease. Germs are present In millions of people who have no disease but whose resistance is so high that the germs perish because they are killed by the living cells and have no dead cells to thrive upon. The body is Immune to germs whe nit is free from decomposition. “When Jnst out of Infancy many children are allowed to eat meats and sugar and too much syrup. They are eaten entirely too freely and the remainder of the diet may consist of bread, butter, cereal and pofat<>es. Such eating habits fail to make the child develop normally, and we have become so accustomed to see children whose physical development *s distinctly below par that as a rule parents do not feel a sense of guilt for a condition In ♦heir children which is wholly the result of Ignorance or indifference. The outcome ©f their failure to meet their obligations is a life-long tragedy for their offspring. “Ignorance of man-made laws docs not excuse any one; how much less should Ignorance of natural laws excuse parents? It is high time that every mother should know as much about feeding her family es the thousands of successful farmers know about feeding live stock. The majority of mothers are giving a large amount of thought and time as well as labor to solving the problems of dressing themselves and children attractively, while leaving their physical development entirely to chance. • “It is true that growth and apparent health may take place on a diet of cereals, ■white fionr, potatoes, and meat, but only those diets that contain one or both protective foods (that Is, milk and leafy vegetables) have ever maintained animals In a state of nutrition which promotes vigor and sustains longevity. GOAT MILK SUPERIOR TO COWS. “During the first year of a child’s life milk is sufficient with fruit juice for one meal. During the second year allow the child to eat all the fruit it w ill take w ith a relish without any sugar on it before or after its regulation meal of milk. Tb< milk of a good goat Is far superior to that of a cow, being the nearest to mother's milk and containing a very small amount of germs as compared with cow s milk. When starch eating begins which should not be until the last part of the second year, let it he always wholf grain flours, for those give the vitamines which are so essential to keep up the body Insistence. Remember that uncooked foods contain the vitamines, therefore supplv the raw fruits and vegetables lr abundance. “Children's diseases. including the eruptive fevers, are caused by interrupted elimination from overeating. Fermentation is at the foundation of all disease, for we known that fermentation causes acidity' and acidity is the avenue through which disease enters or begins. If we kept our systems normally alkaline. we would never be ill and never have infectious diseases. Food that does r.ot digest must take on pathological fermentation. There is imperfect combustion and retention in the body of byproducts and other waste material. A body surcharged with such material is in a state of auto-toxemia or constitutional food poisoning and acidity. “What shall we do to safeguard against Infectious diseases? See that our children have plenty of sleep (ten hours is best): give them air and sun baths; plenty of water before meals, nothing but water between meals: see that their bowels move at least twice daily. “Children early accustomed to their air and sun baths will escape the so-called infectious diseases. Whv ? Because these diseases are encouraged by clothes and overheating the surface of the body. It is difficult to say which is the most health building, air, light or cold. No doubt the best results are obtained when the three are properly blended. No human being ought to be guilty—and that word is used advisedly—of eating hread that is made from white flour. It is a crime against the human race to tamper with wheat by removing the most essential part of the grain, which is done, of course, as a means of making profit. Flour will not keep as long with the heart of the grain in it as it will without, which is the reason for bolting the flour and removing the part that cci. tics vitamines."

THE CROOKS IN 'BLACK ROSES 9 ARE NO CHEAP SKATES May Has a Private Scandal —‘Life’ Is Now a Movie—‘Sky Pilot? on View

A porch climber is a "piker” compared to the dress suit and monocled crooks that appear In “Black Roses " a morie which is a strange mixture of a little of everything. The movie crook is a high-class chap because he wears evening clothes, lives In swell hotels, adorns one eye with a monocle and smokes Oriental cigarettes. Although he look 9 like a gentleman.

These three are crime experts, and take it from me. this trie would be an ugly team to meet in a dark alley. With the successful "framing” of Yoda and his trip to prison for a crime that he did not commit, the story then devotes Itself to the efforts of Yoda to escape and his efforts to get revenge on the gang. At the time of the murder, the gang kidnaps Blossom, the wife ot Y'oda. The story descends to plain melodrama as Itoda puts on a dress suit so he can be an associate with Harry. After the author has used e v ery trick known to melodrama. Ycda rescues his wife from Chinatown. Os course the laws gets busy and takes Harry and Blanche into custody. “Black Roses” is so named because Yoda is supposed to be the possessor of the secret for growing black roses. Os course there really is no such flower as a black rose, but these movie writers stop at nothing. This movie must be considered only as a melodrama. It can not be taken seriously. It's nthlng more and nothing less than a trick movie. The most Impossible things happen in It. The tempo of the acting Is pitched in an impossible key because the actors must do the Impossible in this story. There are many movie fans who enjoy Sessue ad his wife Tsuru Aokt, who plays the Blossom role. The cast Is adequate. If you are fond of movie crooks who stop at nothing, then you should visit Loew's State this week and see the im possible happen in “Black Roses." — W. D. H. -1- -!- -!- . FORMER STAGE FLAY IS NOW A MOVIE DRAMA. Thrill, mystery and romance, this In tmitable combination Is included in "Life," the feature picture for the present week, at the Ohio. Nlta Naldi, Rod La Rocqne and Allene Pretty handle the lead roles, and their Impersonations add much of the intricate and entertaining plot of rhe picture. The story deals with life among the rich of New York . William Stuyvesant. a rich broker, of Gotham, has a daughter iof wrom he Is very proud. Tom Burnett is a clerk* in his office, and Stuyvesant has visions of hts becoming a son-in-law, and later takes lilm into the firm. Tom. however, has been implicated with Ralph, Stuyvesant's son. in the theft of securities, which they have invested badly. Reid who is secretary to the elder Stuyvesant, falls in love with Ruth, Stuyvesant's daughter, and they are secretly married. Having lost heavily on the stock exchange, Ralph and Burnett are forced to extremes to cover their margins. Burnett steals more securities, and Ralph forges his father’s name to a check for .<20.000. Later, when the forgery is dis covered, it is blamed on Reid, and he Is also made to bear the blame for the theft of the securities. When Reid striker Burnett following the Implication, he is discharged. That night Ruth is giving a house 1 party. Held Is there, and Stuyvesant. still believing him innocent. Ralph and Burnett, in order to place him in Stuyvesant's disfavor, have a professional dancer, and woman of questionable character, come to the party and declare she came on Reid's Invitation. Following the scene when the woman is ordered from the house, Stuyvesant calls Burnett to the library where l,e accuses him of the theft of the securities. ‘ Burnett tells of the son's forgery, and I Stuyvesant replies by stating lie'll send both to jail. It Is then Burnett strug gles with Stuyvesant, in order to obtain possession of a paper which Is evidence against him, and In the struggle he shoots and kills Stuyvesant. Again Reid steps Into an unfortunate circumstance, and is blamed for the murder. How he is condemned to die for the mu’der, and the manner In which he is freed, present one of the most Interesting themes that has been shown on the Inlianapolis screen for some time. There is not a character in the entire production that falls short of what Is expected of him, and the photography Is perfect. The story has not been exaggerated, neither are the characters overdone. Opinion: “Life" Is one of those differj ent sort of pictures, one that holds the interest throughout, and one which has a combination of styles that is bound to please the most fastidious "movie fan.” At the Ohio all week. -I- -1- -|- LOTS OF CLASS * TO NEW CIRCLE BILL.

This Is one of the few picture* In captivity of Tom Mix with his bat off. Tom generally appears wearing his big cw boy hat. He looks really human In this travel picture to the South Sea Islands are ns equally entertain ng. The average movio pitron has rend Ralph Connor's “The Sky Pilot,” and Its theme is well known from coast to coast. Nearly every high school boy and girl has read the book. For those who forget. It Is enough to say that the story concerns a young minister who is sent to a ranch to make church goers out of a burn-h of cowboys. The “pilot” Is not a popular individual when he fir“t lands in the West but this minister is the real sort and tn the end the cowboys would fight to the last man for him. They love him so much that they build a church for him. The story is a human yarn and there i* enough action between the covers of thi* book to make several movies. John Bowers Is cast as the "sky pilot.” Others In the cast are Colleen Moore, David Butler and others more or less well known. King Vidor directed the in o vie. This bill remains on view ail week up to Saturday at the Circle. “PRIVATE SCANDAL." AT THE ALHAMBRA. “Private Scandal" is one of those "triangle" plays, but is unique In that it htis a charming love story In the plot. This feature of the love story relieves some of the heavier moments in the play, and adds much to Its value. We might find some fault with the technique of the play if we were not altogether pleased with the performance of May McAvoy, who takes the leading role. With her as the star, we can afford to overlook some of the faults of the picture, ller acting is more than up to the standard, and would redeem a play of less merit. The story of "A Private Scandal” Is logical. It is not light, by any means, and furnishes good material to the scenario writers. It concerns the selfsacrifice of a young girl to save the good

GIRLS REFUSE TO QUIT ROOMS A T WASHINGTON Linen and Maid Service Taken Away by Government, but Fair Rebels Stick. WASHINGTON. July 25. The Government today had a unique strike on its hands. I’ubllc opinion is with the strikers and there seems to be small possibility of the Government winning out. Twenty-two fair war workers constitute the "angry mob" of strikers. They indignantly refuse to be dispossessed of their quarters In one of the big Government dormitories and say? they'll "fight it out on this line if it takes all summer." Governmental economy. which hit Washington with the budget system, is responsible for the order evicting the girls. The Government Issued an order that the fair workers move from their quarters in one of the dormitories In order that the building might be closed In the Interest of economy. Forty-two girls were affected, and twenty moved. But the remainder have dubbed themselves “bitter-enders" and are holding out. The rooms in which the small band of Irreconcllables live have been stripped to bare walls. All bed linen, towels and maid service have been withdrawn. But this didn't faze the girls. Government officials gravely are shaking their heads, wondering f after all it wouldn't be better to permi* to" girls to stay until their lease runs out, Aug. 1. K. of P.

FILMY SILK ALL THATS WORN BY SOCIETY BUDS Pa jama Suppers and T woOunce Bathing Suits Too lAttte Even for Paris. PARIS, July 25 -Pajama suppers, twoounce bathing suits and sky-high prices were the week's outstanding features at Deauville, where the Social Supreme Council is meeting daily at Ihe palatial gambling rooms In the Casino. The fashionable throng In a hotel lobby gasped with amazement when a dozen of the ‘bright lights of the Paris society stage descended the stairs and seated themselves In the open air restaurant clad only In featherweight pajamas. The filmy garment worn by a noted comedienne was the last word In airy coolness, being fashioned from black lat e. Several of the men. ns a concession to convention, wore Tuxedo Jackets, with pajama trousers of bright colors. Following the champagne supper party they ran to the beach, where, throwing off their pajamas, they stood revealed in one piece bathing suits. Then the party proceeded to enjoy a moonlight bath in the sea while the or chestra played sad melodies. When a number of shocked American dowagers protested the manager of the hotel said: “Kill Joys should not come to Deauville. The lid is off here and people are at liberty to enjoy themselves as they see fit." Despite their protests it was noticed that none of the dowagers departed.

Union Station Aids See Life in Varied Phases Smiles and Tears Mark Throng From Every Part of World.

By MABEL WHEELER. There is no place more cosmopolitan than the Union Station. Down the long flight of stairs trail all kind and conditions of human beings, rich and poor, old and young Americans aud foreigners. There is always a touch of pathos about the frightened-eyed foreign folk who come down the steps hettatingly, fearful of what lies before them with just a lingering longing for what they have left behind. Two little Italian children came through the gates the other day, so little and lonesome looking but as they gazed around them with the air of stray kittens, a happy-looking dependable woman stepped out and greeted the little travellers by name, with a sunny smile that warmed the children's hearts and chased away the fear in their eyes. She was the Travelers’ Aid representative who looks after the folk who need looking after. She bad received word from the Travelers Aid at Ellis Island that the children were coining on that train, and she was watching for them. They had come all the way from Italy and were going to their relatives here in tho city. They were taken to their new home- and placed in the hands of their waiting relatives. MUCH WORK IS DIFFICULT. Such is but one of many incidents that happen In the dally life on the energetic helper at the station. Much of the work Is difficult, for some of the foreign folk who come through who cannot speak English at all, sometimes their friends cr relatives have moved from the address written on tho precious grimy Scraps of paper clutched by the strangers, and tracing the missing people involves a r-*gnlar detective Job for the aid worker. One young girl came In recently from overseas with an address which the aid gathered was that of her brothers. There were three of them living here and they were her only relatives. The aid. who had received word by a wir o from Ellis island that the girl was

coming, looked up the address before the arrival of the traveler and found that the brothers had moved away and none of the neighbors knew where they had gone. Nobody knew anything about the coming of the sister. However she found that one of the men had been employed in the kitchen of a local hotel. She went to the hotel and interviewed the cooks and their helpers and finally found a man who said that he knew the brothers and that one of them who had gone to Chicago to live was coming down the next day to stay over Sunday with him. Ho said that he knew there was a sister for before the war tho boys had sent her money to come over here but that they bad never heard from her since and had given her up as dead. MEETS SISTER AFTER YEARS. The aid told the friend to bring hts guest to the station the next day and that they would meet the sister when she arrived. When tho brother came to the station ho was wildly excited bur he was doubtful of the truth of the story until it was all carefully explained to him. When the girl arrived, he did not recognize her for he had not seen her since she was a little child. She explained that tbs war had kept her from coming but that she had hidden the money so that she could come as soon as conditions permitted. Frequently foreigners come in whe started from tbeir homeland before the railroad rates changed and have ODly Just enough money to pay for their ticket according to the old rates, the travelers' aid takes care of them until they reach their destination safely. Often they will arrive in the city too late to make connections with their train and have to lay over in Indianapolis until the next day. The work of the aid is not without romance, either, for only the other day she received a wire telling her that a young foreigner lad who had just landed was coming that same afternoon to n-cet

his sweetheart in Indianapolis, where they were to be married. The aid was to meet the train with the bride-elect and personally conduct the marriage, sending the marriage certificate to the authorities at Ellis Island. When she noted the girl’s address she discovered that there had been a mistake somewhere, as there was no such street in the city. However, she started in trailing ‘he girl and after a speedy series of investigations located her and everything was in readiness when the excited bridegroom arrived. YOUNG GIRLS OFTEN STRANDED. Young girls sometimes are stranded at the Btation, having expected someone to meet them here and pay their way on to their destination and the friends have not received their letters or are dolayed, not coming until the next day. Without money enough to buy a meal or to pay for a night's lodging, the unfortunate would be in a dsplorable condition if it were not for the ever-readv helper who lodges and feeds her until she finds her friends. There are cases, too, of girls who come to get work without friends or money, expecting to find something at hard, who are befriended by ths aid and kept under her watchful eye until placed. It is not only foreigners that need aid, she says, for there are many, many Americans that come for help. Invalids, people sick and suffering, the old and blind, all come under her eye. She is ready for any emergency, with wheeled chairs, nurses, stretchers or even ambulances or any other equipment that may be needed.
