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.
