  1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [758] - this we have had before. The body, in its physical and mental developments, shows a constant improve in the GENERAL applications OF same.

  2. There needs be those of the continuation of the mental and physical developments as relating to coordination of mental and physical forces of the body, that - as the developments show for the proper coordination, the proper relationships of things, conditions, surroundings - are kept in much the same manner.

  3. As has been given, this requires patience, persistence, on the part of all who apply same; yet the results as may be accomplished in same are more than worth the efforts, and would those who apply same realize the blessings they are bringing to themselves, little else would mind; for the conditions, as we find, are CONSTANTLY on the change, and on the improve. Be patient, be kind, be long suffering - for this is in the proper developments for a perfect cure in the end. Ready for questions.

  4. (Q) Are all treatments being given correctly? (A) Apply that question to what has just been given! and are those applying them keeping faith with themselves and that that has been committed unto their care! Answer YOURSELF! Don’t ask here!

  5. (Q) Should glasses be changed now? (A) In two to three weeks we will find a change necessary.

  6. (Q) Are new teeth coming in correctly? (A) There are some that are not in proper alignment. These would WORRY, were they gone at improperly - but there may BE those assistances in the corrections by the proper manipulations OF these portions of the anatomy, that will be quite helpful.

  7. (Q) Is speech defect caused by nerves, or is it habit? (A) It’s both! for habit is a nerve applied in an improper, or an extraordinary way and manner. With the constant releasing, and with the constant taking the time to give the proper impressions to the mental developed forces, these may be overcome entirely.

  8. (Q) Is proper diet being given to body? (A) This very good.

  9. (Q) Are body’s associations with others at Cayce Hospital beneficial to body? (A) In the general, yes. Let them take more time, though.

  10. We are through with this reading.
