1. GC: You will have before you the body and enquiring mind of [670], etc., who seeks further information, advice and guidance as to his life and work. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [670].
3. As we find, there has been well indicated for this body the manner or type of work, and the channels through which this might be accomplished.
4. Then, we would hold to that, and continue to work in ANY form of activity regarding archaeological research as should be the experiences offering the channels, if the body will apply itself in same.
5. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) What connections should I make to become closer associated with the occupations and activities that have been previously suggested? (A) Keep with those channels through which there is either the field research or the research in reconstruction of data forming the basis of those activities within the organization or in the institute itself. There are the abilities in both of these directions, AS in reconstruction as well as in assistance in the field activity. These are the channels of research in which the entity should attempt to associate self.
7. (Q) Should I continue to seek employment at the Smithsonian Institute, with Dr. Stewart in Anthropology? (A) As has been indicated, this is well.
8. (Q) Should I continue to seek field work or should I confine myself to model making and the preparation of exhibits; which would be most satisfactory? (A) As just indicated. Be not only a good model maker but a good reconstructionist; for, as the entity has found, this enables one to be a better research or field worker, - through knowing what is being sought when there is any indication of the various subjects to be reconstructed.

Then we would find field work, as well as the reconstruction and model work, that in keeping with the abilities, and best abilities, of the entity.
9. (Q) In the event that the U.S. should enter a state of war, in what capacity could I be of most service? (A) This will be a matter of choice by self. As to the activities, or entrance - these will be only for those who are choosing to enter. Thus the entity might choose whatever service it desired - if it so desires to enter into such.
10. (Q) Any other advice? (A) Keep to those things indicated - but keep mental and spiritual values also in the experience, and the appreciations of same should be as in keeping in that which is always the law; that the Lord is One.
11. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file le
