(Q) For what business is the body best fitted in order to
make a complete success financially?
(A) This dependent upon what the body would term success.
In considering such, not only should that be considered as is
success in dollars and cents, or position or fame, bur rather
should this be in a manner that brings to the mental body of
one's self being expended in the direction that brings
satisfaction for a life WELL SPENT, bringing more satisfying
results in service as may be rendered to others, and IN that
find that contentment that can only come with the knowledge
of the expending of self in such a way and manner.
In the field of salesman, or storemanager, or management,
would the entity find the greater satisfaction, either in
that of local representative or in that of local agent, or
the greater field of the general agent in the field of
leathers and those things made from same. Then, either as
travelling representative or manager of chain store.
(Q) How should he proceed to get into this business?
(A) Through those channels that are open for such. Either
with those of Lynchburg, Va., Lynn, Mass., or any of the
chain store show representatives or agents. Choose for self
as to which would be in keeping with that desired in self to
be accomplished. Then work like thunder for it!
(Q) If necessary to go elsewhere, should the body take his
family immediately?
(A) Establish self first.
(Q) Would it be best to lease or buy, if possible, a home or
apartment?
(A) Dependent upon the activities as are to be exercised by
the body. If away, either as - either of these the scenes
must change for the body, see? South will be the better.
(Q) The body has a few holdings in which his capital is
entirely tied up. What disposition should be made of same
for the greatest benefit to the body?
(A) They may be used as securities for the local
representation of either those of the chain store, or they
may be used as collateral the establishing of self on the
proper basis for association as a representative or agent for
whole-sale. Decide THAT for self. Either may be attained.
(Q) What's the names of the chain operates the body should
connect with?
(A) O, there are many of them. Any of those that are of -
there are the Queen Quality - there are the Pollock - there
are the Mann - these are good, for they have in many stores.
There are the local representatives of the Douglas, also of
the Walk-Over - ANY of these. Make the connection with which
one the body would choose for the better. Then, there are
the $5 style, the $6, the $3, the general store, see? These
do not require a great amount of capital - that's why the
holdings may be used as surety in ANY of the places. Many of
these are seeking to open new places. Open! One would do
well here at the Beach, though it would be small in opening!
(Q) Please give advice which would be helpful to the body in
entering a different field.
(A) Why change fields, when this has been given? The best
advice that may be given - Show self approved unto the
Creator, WITHOUT respect to persons, places, or things. Be
not ashamed to be called ONE of His peoples. ACT that way.
We are through.

REPORTS
GD's note: His parents [[
327] and [
372]] also had several
readings. His father [

11/19/49 E.C.F. campaign worker's report: "Mrs. [
327] lives
with her son, Mr. [
5531]. He was most gracious - spoke
of having met Mr. Cayce. Remembered Hugh Lynn as a boy -
also Mr. Cayce's father. Not interested in the Assoc.
himself, and at present cannot give anything due to great
expense of mother's illness (she had a stroke two months
ago). He took pledge, though, not out of respect for his
mother and her interests. Believes he may be able to send in
a contribution. Seems to hinge on whether or not his mother
recovers. He said Mrs. [
327] still reads the book A SEARCH
FOR GOD every morning."
