1. EC: Now, we have those conditions as regarding the body, mentally, physically, morally, financially, of [551].
2. In the changes as have come to the body, in its physical and mental relation with self and others, and those conditions, especially, as relating to those of the opposite sex, we see that again manifesting, that, would the entity gain the more perfect knowledge, for that necessary in the physical plane, learn well that lesson, that, "In union there is strength," and that "A house divided against itself cannot stand." The closer, then, these moral lessons become the fibre of the individual entity, the greater becomes the impelling power of the entity to, in the material world, forge ahead. See?
3. Then, as to those material conditions, there have been many ways through which the entity has gained access to the knowledge of self in this material world. Then, again, approach that force, that entity, [257]*, through which the knowledge of self, and of these forces as are manifest to the entity, were gained, and through the conjunction of the efforts of these two [[551] and [257]] may there much material and physical gain come to the entity; for the connection of two [[137] and [900]?] in the street below the entity, where there has been much prospects - does not seem to be working so well; for these have become self-sufficient unto themselves, and are not in the way of helping further. So, through these channels now, as given, should the entity turn more attention. Not ALL, no. Through many channels may there great good come to the entity. Keeping self in that way and manner that the closer relations may be kept between the entity and those forces that give the power to the physical.

4. In the market there will be found many changes, many conditions are to arise that will cause much entanglement in the next few weeks. Then a gradual rise again, and in these the entity may gain much for self.
