TEXT

1. EC: We have the body here - this we have had before. In the general way we find the body still on the improve. Do not be too impatient. The conception of the body was not in a day in its growth, but first the mental, then the physical, then the growth. So, in the bringing about of the coordinations in the system, where nerve ends must force their way through tissue that has been inactive, and the coordination of same must be made - where the growth has been continued in the developing body, as in the glands through the system, these are prone to react in the cycle of ITS activity - which, as seen, comes at least twice in every twenty-eight days, and in the correcting of the cerebro-spinal system, as relating to the various physical attributes of the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal, as operate through the brain centers themselves - these require time. Be patient. Be persistent. Do that. Ready for questions.
2. (Q) What causes stomach disturbance?
   (A) Overtaxing the body in diet, and the natural retraction from the hypogastric and pneumogastric plexus, by the changes as are being made. Because these disturb at times, just prevent the taxing of system in eating, and do not TREAT the body too soon AFTER eating, and in the connection in the hypogastric center and the pneumogastric center - as pass in through the cervicals to the head - relax these, and making corrections only every third to fourth treatment.
3. (Q) How should diet be changed?
   (A) Only that the DEVELOPMENTS in the diet are in keeping with that being administered TO the system FOR development. No, that's not plain, is it? In the developing of nerve tissue, there are food values for nerve reaction. Make these more in accord in the daily treatments as to that being accomplished in the system. Now you get it!
4. (Q) Should body be sent to public kindergarten?
   (A) The body should have more contact with others. As to public kindergarten, this would be WELL - could it [if it could] be accomplished. [GD's note: See questions in subsequent readings about schooling. 10/21/30 See 758-22, Par. 5-A advising it would be well to change [758] from Professor Francis H. Greene's School for Boys to Miss Lillian Barclay's kindergarten, where he could get individual attention.]
5. (Q) Are glasses correct now?
   (A) At the present these are very good, but there ARE times when they are NOT, for the system is CONSTANTLY changing - and this would be well to be closely looked AFTER, as to developments as they come.
6. (Q) Are the eyes better generally?
   (A) To be sure, or there wouldn't be this change!
7. (Q) Are all treatments being administered correctly?
   (A) Being administered correctly, so far as the treatments. Don't have 'em too close to meals!
8. (Q) Are battery treatments being given correctly?
   (A) MOST of the times. Look well after solutions, and do not leave TOO long - or don't take them off too soon. These are not ALWAYS adhered to properly. Time's factor has much to do with that effectiveness of the vibrations as are created in the system.
9. That is all the questions regarding this body.
10. We are through with this reading.
