Gentlemen:
I have given Josephine C. Braun a written examination and, as a result of this examination, I feel that she has the general educational equivalent of a regular graduate of a high school.
Therefore, I recommend her to you as a being qualified from an academic standpoint to take your state Chiropractic examination.
Respectfully,

Miss Josephine C. Braun,
20 N. Ashland Blvd.,
Chicago, Ill.
Dear Madam:
I do give examinations for the Iowa State Board of Chiropractic Examiners for the purpose of determing for them whether or not the applicant for chiropractor's license in Iowa has in experience, education, etc., the equivalent of a High school graduate. If you desire to take the Illinois Board, let me suggest that you take this matter up directly with them, because I do not think I can be of any assistance to you in Illinois. Hoever, if you wish to take the Iowa Board, you can make arrangements with me to take this general informational test which I can give at any time.
Respecfully,
[signed] A. I. Naumman

Dear Doctor:
As per your request, we are herewith inclosing [sic] application blank for the next examination to be held the 5th, 6th and 7th of April, 1926 in Des Moines, Iowa.
Candidates must be graduates of a recognized Chiropractic school requiring attendance of not less than three years of six months each or its equivalent. The diploam [sic] must be submitted to this board for verification.
Applications must be on file at least fifteen days prior to the first day of examination and be accompanied with a fee of $20.00 and a high school diploma. If not a high school graduate, a certificate must accompany application from a recognized university or college authority or the superintendent of a standard high school, to the effect that said applicant has been duly examined and found to possess preliminary educational qualifications equal to those of a standard high school.
Mr. A. I. Naumann, Prin. Sudlow Intermediate School, 1414 E. Locust St., Davenport, Iowa has given such an examination to a number of the applicants. This man is a former High School instructor. There is also a school there called the Humphrey Institute that is in charge of a high school superintendent. You may get further particulars regarding this school by writing Mr. J.H. Beld, 1414 Brady St., Davenport, Iowa. Your business training and the work taken preparatory for University entrance would undoubtedly aid you in passing the examination given by Prof. Naumann.
Trusting this is the information you desire, and assuring you of our willingness to cooperate with you, we are,
Very truly yours,
Iowa State Board of Chiropractic Examiners.
[signed] Myrtle E. Long D.C.
Sec'y-Treas.
P.S. It is very probable that you could take such an examination and furnish us with a signed certificate or statement from some high school superintendent in Chicago.
1926 Member Card for the Atlas Club of Sioux City, Iowa
This is to Certify that Dr. Josephine C. Braun of Sioux City, Iowa; Is a Member of the Atlas Club, 1926; "To Better Serve Humanity" & is signed by the International Secretary, J. C. Barcus. The card is impressed with the Club's Corporate Seal. The logo of the club appears in the background: 2 orange spines 'facing' each other with a line from each disc to a center disc? ATLAS & CLUB appear overlayed on the lines.
Although there is a place for Signature of Member, Josephine did not sign her card.
I've looked online & only found brief references to The Atlas Club. The best references I found connect somehow to Doctors of Osteopathy. I haven't been able to find out much about The Atlas Club; however, the following information about publications by The Atlas Club was found in an online copy of the History of Osteopathy (and Twentieth-Century Medical Practice) by E. R. Booth, Ph.D, D.O. 1906; CHAPTER IX - OSTEOPATHIC LITERATURE.
Bulletin Number 1, of the Atlas Club, Kirksville, Missouri, appeared in
December, 1899. It contained merely the names and addresses of the members.
Three or four issues were published within a little more than a year. In March,
1901, Volume I, Number 1, of The Bulletin, published by the Atlas and Axis
Clubs, came out, and it has been a regular monthly visitor, except in July and
August, to the members of those clubs ever since. The Bulletin is a fraternal
journal, but has contained many articles of prime importance to the profession
at large. It is edited by students of the American School of Osteopathy.
