Miss Josephine Jose-phine Shorten sang a pleasing vocal solo and Miss Mary Fischer played beautiful selections on the violin, with Miss Marian Browning accompanying on the piano. Attorney David L. Stine spoke of constitutional rights. In part, he said: "Our government is divided Into three branches. The legislative branch enacts the laws, the administrative branch regulates the laws, with the governor of the state at the head of It. The judicial branch of the government govern-ment lies in the courts. Courts do not make the laws. They are merely enforcers en-forcers of tho law, to carry out the laws on the statute books, which protect pro-tect men and property. The legislative branch makes the laws.

No legislature legis-lature has a right to say just how this is to be done No state should pass any law which shall deny any privileges privi-leges to these people unless the mode of healing or working is investigated and looked into. The argument Is: flow can a state deny to oife class the right to do certain things and others bo permitted to do the same things. o Tho legislature has the right to pre- J k scribe certain qualifications that the , J drugless healer must comply with and '!
