(Q) What are the prospects for Eyescopes, Inc.?
(A) This product, as is seen in the present conditions,
is a sales proposition, and this, with many other of the
holdings of the body, should be combined in or under one
operative head for the handling or the distribution of such
products. That is, these, as seen, have certain royalty and
certain patent rights, as do other operatives that the body
[
239] is interested in. Get these combined under one sales
organization, and through same ALL of these may be made
REMUNERATIVE to all concerned. But well here may it be
given this body, as long as there is held the consciousness
of money and money power alone in the forefront of the
body's endeavors, these will only be ordinary in returns
from same. Have, set, make for self a goal to which the
body would work to accomplish a definite thing in this
experience, and not be just mediocre in the ideas, or most of
all the ideas of that that is attempting to be accomplished
other than just making money. Money takes wings easily.
The body MENTALLY, [
239], has ABILIITIES - many abilities -
many abilities, in that the body may accomplish - may
accomplish in most any direction that it desires, but fear
so often takes hold, loss of confidence in others so often
pushed forward, that the hindrances are ever apparent. Then,
in Eyescopes, in those other interests in which the body has
interests - combine these - force the combination through,
and holdings under one common head, share with others in
that in which the entity holds a portion of that as is being
accomplished through these, and we will find - with the
right intent and purpose - MUCH may be made of these, for
they have their place and may be made useful in same. DO
that.
(Q) What should the body do to protect his investment in
Eyescopes, Inc.?
(A) As has been given.
(Q) What means should the body adopt for disposing of
Puttaround stock at a profit?
(A) As has been given!
(Q) Will the stock be put on the N.Y. Curb Market? When?
(A) When put in shape to be done so!
(Q) What are the prospects for the body in getting back his
investment in Sportigolf?
(A) If this is carried in the manner as has been given, we
would find MORE than getting back investment!
(Q) Will the Preferred Automobile Brokers, Inc., stock be
placed on the N.Y. Curb Market?
(A) We do not find it so at present. There will be some
necessary changes in the manner in which the dividends or
the outcome of the income of the corporation is distributed.
These are in the hands of efficient ones, but some
unscrupulous operators, and this will necessarily mean a
change before it would even be eligible for Curb Market.
(Q) Will it continue to be as profitable as at present?
(A) As just given, they are efficient in their abilities
and that to keep dividends coming.
(Q) Is it best for the body to hold his Stewart Warner
stock or sell it and invest in other stocks?
(A) Stewart Warner very good, and will - eighteen months -
nineteen months - be much change in the quotation as at
present. Hold it for the present.
(Q) Would it be wise for the body to continue negotiations
regarding St. Augustine Cyclorama?
(A) Very well. This may be well accomplished by the body,
but would be well for many of the other interests of the
body to be put in such a shape or condition that it will not
require too much of the time of the body to attend to the
supervision of such an undertaking as is desired, and as the
body has in mind. Though the body capable, as is given, to
carry this out. There are, as seen, two ideas in the mind
of the body [
239], while another entirely in the mind of
some of those whom the body would associate with in such an
undertaking. Let the mental abilities of the body stand for
that it would accomplish in this direction! Don't invest
personal moneys. Not that these are not to be paying
propositions, for they will - with the carrying out of
these, for the investments should not be more than eight to
ten thousand in the one, twelve to fourteen in the other,
with that of a return of at least seven percent on the
moneys invested for more than twenty-three years.
(Q) What would be a fair price for a work of this character?
(A) As is given!
(Q) Is the body capable -
(A) That's just given!
(Q) Has the body sufficient ability as a playwright to
justify further effort in that direction?
(A) Not at present. These may be accomplished a little
later, but at present we would carry to a more successful
termination some of the interests already in hand. These,
then, may be approached - a little bit later.
(Q) Would it be wise, and best for wife's, [
241]'s,
happiness, to obtain a small home in Mathews County, Va.?
and have the body's nephew and wife take care of it?
(A) Not until there are different conditions in the life of
the body and in the surroundings. Then it may be well.
(Q) Would it be well for the body to have his brother and
family move to Mathews County and be associated with him in
Haven Beach Venture?
(A) Best to handle this in the way as has been outlined -
though these may be of help and assistance when these
developments are farther along in operation.
(Q) Please advise the body as to how he may best gain
control of himself and utilize his abilities to best
advantage.
(A) Depend more upon the intuitive forces from within and
not harken so much to that of outside influences - but learn
to listen to that still small voice from within, remembering
as the lesson as was given, not in the storm, the lightning,
nor in any of the loud noises as are made to attract man,
but rather in the still small voice from within does the
impelling influence come to life in an individual that gives
for that which must be the basis of human endeavor; for
without the ability to constantly hold before self the ideal
as is attempted to be accomplished, man becomes one as
adrift, pulled hither and yon by the various calls and cries
of those who would give of this world's pleasure in fame,
fortune, or what not. Let these be the outcome of a life
spent in listening to the divine from within, and not the
purpose of the life. We are through.

BACKGROUND
6/07/29 He obtained Physical Rdg.
241-1 for his wife.
7/18/29 Mr. [
195] advised EC not to give business rdgs.
for Mr. [
239]: "It seems that rdgs. for him would mix you
up in some way with his unfortunate investing of his wife's
funds, with possibly an unpleasant ending in the future. He
didn't know how to tell his wife of his using her money and
as far as I know may not have told her as yet."
7/22/29 Mr. [
239] was present, submitting questions.
REPORTS

when Mr. [
239] and his wife were there] wrote: "Linden
Shroyer has a picture of me painted by Mr. [

I love to keep things."
