1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief for this body. You will answer the questions which have been submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. Now as we find, conditions are fair in this body. While there have been and are some disturbing conditions that have been hindrances, these in the major part have been and are clearing.
4. Yet as we find, if there is a better coordination produced between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic nerve system governing what may be called the inter-relationships of the mental, the physical and the spiritual bodies, we may bring a bettered and a more quiet condition for this body.
5. These then are the conditions as we find them with this body, [1814] we are speaking of:
6. In the blood stream there are indications of the lack of those elements that arise from perfect assimilation. Hence we find also those effects or traces of the influences that have acted as sedatives to the assimilating system. These in a manner account for the lack of that stimuli in the blood force of the body itself.
7. Also in the nervous system we find the body is subnormal in its reactions and refractions. Other times we find a supersensitive reaction.
8. As these are noted as related to the nervous systems, there needs to be better coordination produced between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic systems; in first the upper dorsal, the cervical, 9th dorsal and lumbar axis, relieving a strain which exists upon the coccyx area.
9. This as we find may be more thoroughly accomplished by a series, preferably, of osteopathic adjustments and manipulations. These would be preferably done by one at

least in SYMPATHY with such administrations given under directions of such sources as this, see? also that would use, while the body is resting AFTER the treatment, the Radio-Active Appliance. And in this particular case, we would only use this under the direction of the physician, in the office. As there is no charge except the bodily forces themselves, this is to create an equal balance from the vibratory forces of the upper and lower extremities. This would be used for at least thirty minutes to an hour, AFTER each osteopathic treatment given.
10. And these, the osteopathic treatments should be given twice a week for a period first of four weeks; leaving them off then for ten days to two weeks, and then giving them AGAIN for another four weeks.
11. This SHOULD make for sufficient coordination, unless there are other disturbances that arise.
12. The body's activities should be as much in the open as is practical; ALWAYS, however, in companionship or association with one, or a person or persons, that may be as an aid or stimuli to the activities of the body.
13. In the diets, we find that once a day the meal should consist principally of raw foods. As little of meats as practical for the activities of the body. No fried foods EVER for the body.
14. If these are done in a CONSISTENT manner, we should maintain and bring about the better normal forces and influences for this body of [1814].
15. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) What doctor near his school would you suggest for giving the osteopathic treatments? (A) Anyone in sympathy with the suggestions indicated here. There are several about Philadelphia.
17. (Q) Is the disturbance he has experienced in his mental body caused from physical or psychological reasons? (A) It has been rather both, as we have indicated; and as suggested, there needs to be a better equilibrium established between the areas that have been outlined wherein the activities of the mental, the physical and the spiritual forces of the entity or body coordinate. This would ensure, as it were, the maintaining of a balance; unless, to be sure, there is the breaking of such influences or forces by some unseen or unforseen activity.
18. (Q) Was it caused by the impingement of a bone against the nerve centers? (A) As indicated, MORE from the activity in the caecum and the lacteal area; though necessarily, as indicated from that
1814-1 Page 3
suggested, there is an unalignment in the cerebrospinal system, especially where there are and were coordinations between sympathetic and cerebrospinal systems.
19. (Q) Did his middle ear operation injure him in any way? (A) This as we find may later cause some disturbance, but it depends upon how well the nerve impulses are applied, or kept coordinating through the adjustments as would be made in the upper dorsal and through the cervical area.
20. (Q) Is he in the right school for his present requirements? (A) This is very good for the present.
21. (Q) What are his greatest propensities? (A) These would be best given through the associations AS an ENTITY, rather than from here. It will necessarily be, as we find, something that has to do with the out of doors, if it's governed by a better physical reaction.
22. (Q) What part of country would be most harmonious for him? (A) As indicated, such questions as this may be best answered from the whole combination, rather than from physical alone.
23. (Q) Is his tendency to day dream to be encouraged? (A) This again is a continuous reference to the ENTITY, rather than just the physical.
24. (Q) Should he be allowed at any time during vacations the use of his motorcycle? (A) This had best be determined by his reactions after the correcting of those conditions in the cerebrospinal system. And as indicated as to his activities, if such is done under the supervision of or in association and companionship with others, well. Alone, not so well.
25. Do as has been outlined.
26. We are through for the present. Copy to Mother " " Ass'n file (2/7/39 GD's note: Osteopaths near him who have had experience with Readings as follows: Dr. Elisha T. Kirk, 20 W.
