TEXT

1. HLC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [773]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, there are many conditions quite favorable, even from those as we have had here before. Many changes have taken place in the general developments of the body-functionings.
4. There is still a lacking somewhat in the general condition as to sufficient vitamins in relation to the better, or best coagulation.
5. We find that it would be most favorable to use the ADIRON (formerly Codiron) through the season when colds are the more prevalent. This will create, or assist in creating, a better balance through the assimilation; giving better appetites, as well as better distributions of that assimilated. We would take two pellets each day; one at the noon meal, one at the evening meal.
6. As to the more specific condition, - we find there is not as much strain in the eyes as there has been indicated heretofore; though a better GENERAL condition of improvement in assimilations and eliminations will assist even here.
7. As we find, there may again be necessitated some little manipulations to assist in the better circulation through the sensory forces as related to the optics; these especially from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd dorsal, and through the cervical, and the vegetative nerve center points about the face and head. As to how long a period and how often these manipulations should be given, - if they are given in a series, give them twice a week for about three weeks. Then rest from them for at least a month. Or, if they are given as a GENERAL stimulation for the WHOLE of the body, give them about once every two weeks and do this for about two to three months.
8. These as we find would be the most helpful for this body in the present.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) What is the condition of the right eye now?
    (A) As has been indicated, this is very much better, even in the general strain as arose from the use of the left eye in the close application to studies and the like.
    There is BETTER vision than there has been before, which has assisted in taking strain off the other eye; and, as indicated, the other eye is not so strained as it has been.
    The GENERAL health improved, and the keeping of a god nerve impulse for circulation to these portions, will prove beneficial; for the general health as well as the specific disturbance.
11. (Q) Can the vision of the right eye be greatly improved?
    (A) As we find, it may gradually be GREATLY improved.
12. (Q) How should we beware of any undue strain in either eye?
    (A) By the observation when studying, as to the squinting and as to the MANNER of the activity indicating strain.
13. (Q) What should be done if the eye is strained?
    (A) As we find, this will depend - to be sure - upon the cause of same; whether by the attempt to use same too closely, or under too great a strained circumstance - as bad light, or being at times in too strong a light and then attempt to use under other conditions.
    These as we find may be aided by the low electrical forces applied directly, in combination also with the osteopathic stimulation for the circulation.
14. (Q) How often should the electrical treatment be given in such cases?
    (A) This is pre-supposing, and thus it may not be indicated as to ACCURATE activity needed. In the present, meet those conditions; that is, the building up and the keeping of a good, strong physical body, with the better or the more perfect circulation to the disturbed areas; and we may PREVENT the needs of any such applications.
15. (Q) Should a lens be worn over the left eye for study?
    (A) We do not find it necessary, if that application suggested is made. This MIGHT become a probability, but NOT in the present.
16. (Q) What is wrong with the posture, and what can be done to correct it?
    (A) This is a matter of the body just taking those careful considerations. There is no out-of-alignment that causes same, but the general disposition of the body during inactivity.
17. (Q) Any further advice to the body at this time regarding his studies?
    (A) Only to keep the music as one thing to be mastered.
18. We are through with this reading.

1. 11/25/40 Letter to EC from Miss [1614]: "...I spent this weekend in Monclair, N.J. with friends. I was talking with a very dear friend there about you - Mary Loving Wright Palmer (Daughter of Dr. Wright, from Bowling Green, Ky.) - I was telling her about you and she said only recently she had heard about you and of some remarkable cure of a child in Westchester [773] from your reading..."
