Time of Reading 10:45 to 11:10 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., New York.
1. GC: You will have before you the entity [2174], born August 28, 1890, in Canton, N. Y., who seeks information, advice and guidance as to her present mental and material affairs. Considering the growing importance of her relation to the oil opportunities in Texas, which are now centering around the personalities of Geo. L. Marquess of Houston and R. T. Myers of Tyler, you will please give what her former relationship has been with each of these two men; advising what the relationship should be in the present, for the good of all concerned. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known as or called [2174], also the relationships borne with Marquess and Myers.
3. These in the present are, in a manner, very definitely related to activities during the experiences of the entity in the Egyptian period.
4. While there the relationships were not concerning oil, they WERE concerning the products of the earth. For, as the activities were related to the products such as precious stones, metals, these brought about a condition - as may be termed - in which there was the breaking down of insincerity which had materially existed between these two individuals now known as Marquess and Myers.
5. True, the relationships in the Egyptian experience, from those activities in Atlantis, were in reversed positions - in a manner. For, then Marquess was in that position of being in authority, as to relationships established with natives of the lands then under consideration for activities.
6. That there should in the present be presented opportunities for a reviving of possibilities, as well as the opportunities for material expression of ideas and desires in the present, would then not be amiss; in that the pattern was begun with those activities in the Abyssinian

land, as well as in what is now the southernmost or upper portion of the Nile.
7. In making practical application of such in the present, - it is evident that conditions, by their contact in the present, have manifested what may be termed the better natures, the better purposes of both Marquess and Myers. It is evidenced that these offer opportunities to the entity, [2174], for the material fulfilling of purposes.
8. As to choices in the matter - from the material standpoint, and to others of a materialistic tendency, it becomes very speculative. These choices, then, must be made by the entities themselves. Yet they offer opportunities for materialization of purposes as related to prospects or possibilities, and policies, in furthering the educational program, as well as opportunities for the ideas AND ideals as related to those conditions SO needed in an educational means as pertaining to soil, animal, vegetable, in its relationships to man in the conditions arising in his present experience.
9. These as we find are those counsels as would be indicated from here.
10. As to the factual relationships that have existed - in that particular period each of these individuals was of those groups that had come to the Egyptian land for material safety, owing to those understood conditions as brought about the complete destruction of that man had builded.
11. This indicates the opportunities of these possibilities, then, in the present, through those activities in the material expression to give impetus of spirit, of purpose, of a constructive nature - as the association has brought into the experience of each; that there may become materially manifested the means for the materializing of ideas and ideals in the present.
12. What, ye may ask, were the associations in that particular period?
13. The entity now known as [2174] was in the position, as we have indicated, of a leader in those groups that were so advanced in the activities from the materializations in Atlantis.
14. Hence, when there was the coordinating of the activities with the purposes of those in position of power or authority from the philosophical or spiritual standpoint in that particular period - as to HOW these opportunities of the products of the soil might be made to become a part of the pattern in the activities of individuals to whom there were the material as well as the spiritual imports of such - the appeal was made from these individuals, Marquess and Myers

as known in the present, to that entity capable of making those associations for same to become a part of the program, - from those in authority politically as well as in the spiritual life.
15. These then present themselves in this manner in the present.
16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) Is this an opportunity to further the dreams I have had for ... [school] and for a vital cooperative community in ... [N.H.] or is it merely a financial temptation? (A) As has been indicated, this depends upon the use of the advice and counsel as will naturally come from outside influences, as to the usages to which the material returns are put, in the activities from same. As to the sincerity of the individuals in the present, little doubt can be put. It IS a venture, because it depends upon the activities of others over which the purpose of neither has control, spiritually and mentally. Yet as we find, material gains will come. And, as to whether it is a financial temptation or the furthering and fulfilling of dreams, hopes and desires, depends upon its usage.
18. (Q) Any other advice or counsel at this time? (A) Look deep within self. Let each that may be associated in such understand the ideals of the entity, and it will be much easier to meet the problems arising from overabundance of material gains.
