1. GC: You will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding this body.

Ready for questions.

3. (Q) Has the Doctor followed instructions correctly? (A) In as far as has been done, has been done correctly. There is a difference between the adjustments with vibrations and that of osteopathic manipulations over the general system.

4. (Q) Is it advisable to do anything to correct the looseness in the bowels? (A) As has been given, this should not be corrected too fast, but rather allow the corrections as are made by the incentives of the nerve energy from the various plexus, correct the condition. As that as causing those existent conditions in the pyloric and in the cardiac portion of stomach proper is corrected - as these are corrected, then the gradual normalcy should be brought about with the eliminations. One should be the outcome of the other, see?

5. (Q) Is it alright to eat chicken? and what other fruits, if any, may be eaten? (A) No apples. No bananas. Orange, grapefruit, plums, pears especially, are good for the body. Pineapple - such fruits, see? Chicken - properly prepared - very good, especially the meat is good - but do not have grease with same, or too much grease; that is, boiled or smothered, or such preparations, rather than fried.

6. (Q) Please go over diet carefully and see if there is anything being taken in the body that should not be - or anything left out that would be well for the body? (A) Follow those instructions as have been given, and as the corrections are made for the incentive functioning of the various portions in the system - these should be governed by the one making corrections, toward diet. Use discretion along with it, see?

7. (Q) Can you suggest anything that might be done that would prevent the body losing weight and gain vitality? (A) Put on more of the iron and vitamin producing properties for system, and correcting the incentive of retaining those properties assimilated; for we are finding the condition in stomach proper greatly subsiding, see?

8. (Q) Is the Radium Pad showing satisfactory results? (A) This can be seen from the condition existing. Yes.

9. That is all the questions.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 5/16/28 Mr. [348]‘s letter: “I have waited until I rec’d your ck. up on the rdg. before writing you. We took the rdg. down to Dr. Wright’s [C. O. Wright, M.D., D.O., D.C.] last night, and he thought you were wonderful, - he seemed to find everything just as you said. We sure do thank you… I have been feeling fine, have had no trouble with my stomach for the past 3 wks. - don’t seem to have as much ‘pep’ at times, and I have lost a little weight. Otherwise, o.k.”

R2. 8/26/28 Letter from [340] to EC: ”…I don’t know what to say about [348]. He is MUCH BETTER than he was, I’m sure - but isn’t as well as he should be. He tires very easily and he doesn’t eat as he should and he knows it. When you are feeling better I’m anxious to get another reading. Will wait until I hear how you are and how rushed you are…”

R3. 9/28/28 Letter from [340] to EC: ”…As soon as you can make a date for [348] I wish you would give him another reading. Go over him carefully and see if there isn’t something we might do to give him more vitality and build him up. At the present time we both have miserable colds - most any time that will suit you will suit him.”
