1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [146] - this we have had before. While apparently there has not been as much improvement in the physical forces of the body as might have been expected, from that as has been given, yet WE find there are MANY improvements in the physical forces of the body. While the tendencies are still not to be talkative, yet whenever there are those activities or HAPPENINGS about the body that are different, in which the body becomes particularly interested, there is more attention, there is more attempt to find or give self-expression. This shows well. Also the greater portion of the treatments, manipulations that have been given, are well. While the period of rest is now, we would begin with these again for at least one other period, see, through the changes as are coming, especially in or for the adolescence - or the changes as come about for the activities that may be brought about, by the applications that are being made for the development of the organs in the change, and that counsel, that experience of the association with individual [Elisha T. Kirk, D.O.] that may advise, may counsel, may talk with, may reason with, even though apparently not much is NEEDED at times, will make for the better and greater developments in and for the body.
2. We would when necessary keep up the Bitters that will aid, especially, in these nerve changes that come about in this system, or body, in these changes. The general condition is on the improve! Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Is his understanding clearer than three months ago? (A) MUCH clearer, as has been indicated. Much more is being gained by the body in subconscious forces, in its real activities of the inner self, than IS apparent at times; but when there are CHANGES that particularly interest the body, there's much more attempt to give expression to self than there was some months ago. In the next three to four months we would find there should be changes in the surroundings,

even, of the body, for the betterment, for the better association and better activities of the body. See?
4. (Q) If treatments were discontinued at this time, would he cease to improve? (A) We would have the period of rest now, for two to three weeks - that is, of SO MUCH of the treatments - but we would have another series of treatments - see?
5. (Q) Has response by the body been as marked as answer to Ques. #12 in last reading would indicate? (A) This has been outlined; while there is not as much outward appearance as MIGHT have been indicated, yet the general conditions and the improvements are SO marked that these may be seen to be on the improve for DEFINITE, PERMANENT, relief for the body!
6. (Q) How are the teeth? (A) These show, from their position and their activities, that these need some local attention - but as a whole, very good.
7. (Q) Have impaction and imbedding cleared any? (A) To some extent. These should be more attended to.
8. (Q) Is there any decay? (A) It has been indicated that these are very good in this respect. More particular attention needs to be given the impaction.
9. (Q) Is there any change in teaching, environment or treatment, that will induce him to talk? (A) Those things that will be of interest to the body, and these should be hunted out in the teaching, or the training, will enable him - or will give rise to the attempt to EXPRESS self more! This has been indicated.
10. (Q) Has any change, due to period of adolescence, taken place or begun? (A) As indicated, it would be well that this be followed very closely BY the one MAKING the applications, or adjustments. This can BEST be determined, as to when the change - of course, there is changing taking place, but - as to when and what EFFECT it is having upon the system, BY the one MAKING the adjustments, or making the treatments see? These, then, may be best AIDED BY such an one, through the conversation, through the activities, through that as may be applied. Do that.
11. (Q) In the first reading information came that his trouble started before birth, "for there was a breach presentation and in the turn was made a pressure, etc." State definitely just how long before actual birth that this turn took place? [See 146-1.] (A) Two to three hours.
146-7 Page 3
12. (Q) When should there be another check reading? (A) When the conditions indicate that advice or counsel, or changes, are necessary to be made or met at that time. Three to four months.
13. (Q) How should this individual body be cared for during the adolescent age? (A) This has been indicated, over and over again.
