A Sanitarium Scramble is a 1916 American short comedy film produced by the American Film Manufacturing Company, released by Mutual Film and directed by B. Reeves Eason.
John Harvey Kellogg was an American businessman, inventor, and physician who was an advocate of theological modernism and the Progressive Movement. He was the director of the Battle Creek Sanitarium in Battle Creek, Michigan, founded by members of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church. It combined aspects of a European spa, a hydrotherapy institution, a hospital and high-class hotel. Kellogg treated the rich and famous, as well as the poor who could not afford other hospitals. According to Encyclopædia Britannica, his "development of dry breakfast cereals was largely responsible for the creation of the flaked-cereal industry." Popular misconceptions falsely attribute various cultural practices, inventions, and historical events to Kellogg.
