7. (Q) Morning of May 17, 1927. Regarding being beaten for selling stock market short and also the boiling pot that settled down to a quiet stage. (A) This is as that condition that may arise to the body for the lack of study as concerning stocks; for again there comes the settling, and the entity should not be short at the present time, see? for while the irregularities are in evidence, yet, as given, the entity should study, and only use that as is received through self and, and applying same, gain the better position in this relation.
8. (Q) Does this relate entirely to conditions now past? (A) Not wholly. As given. As past, present, and future.
9. (Q) Morning of May 19, 1927. Dreamed that I was awake looking at Norfolk & Western R.R. map. It changed to become Rock Island R.R., with some connection or bearing on San Francisco R.R.

(A) Gain only those conditions in the way as may come to the entity, or body, in the manner in which the entity may apply same concerning any of these stocks, whether by voice, impression, flash, dash, dots, or movements, that may indicate. Gain those for self through those channels that are opened when self is applied in the correct direction; that is, as the entity would use or apply self in that of the channel that would gain access to the Universal know- ledge, or force, the entity may attain to same, and through same, applying self, gain that desired, see?
10. (Q) Indication that our purchase of San Francisco Rail stock was too soon and that we should wait to get it from the source first?

13. (Q) Does this mean that this 2 year down market is to begin now - or soon, or when, if at all?
