Time of Reading Fort Story, Va. 4:15 to 4:25 P. M. Eastern War Time. (Oceana, Va.)
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 of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [3240].
3. As we find, in the main physical conditions are very good in many respects; but there are tendencies that unless these are taken into consideration may cause a great deal of trouble. These arise primarily from a condition which involves the glandular forces of the system, tending towards the creating of sugar in too great a quantity for the activity of the circulation between kidneys and liver and their effect upon the activities of the locomotion of the body. And this will increase the weight to such an extent that hindrances would arise in a form either of deterioration in the muscle and tendon forces of the body or in the activities that would affect the heart, the liver and the kidneys.
4. There is a subluxation as we find, that exists in the 9th dorsal, the 6th and 7th dorsal. One is in one direction; the other in the other.
5. This we would correct osteopathically.
6. Also we would keep better activities by the use of the Jerusalem artichoke as a part of the diet three times each week. Prepare this in a special way and manner. Use one about the size of a hen egg, cooked in its own juices and served in its own juice - being prepared in Patapar paper. Boil in the Patapar paper then mix the bulk of the artichoke with the juices (after taking off the peeling) and season with a little butter and salt, and a little pepper if so desired, and eat all of it.
7. Do not take this without having the osteopathic

corrections, for these are to work in unison.
8. If these are done, we should have better activities for this body.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) What causes pains in my back? (A) As just indicated, there are those subluxations in the 9th dorsal, the 6th and 7th dorsal that have supplied to the activities of the glandular forces, especially as relate to the pancrean forces, that affect the vitality produced in the body through proper assimilation. Make these corrections and we will find betterment throughout the body.
11. (Q) Can anything be done for my ear? deafness in the right ear? (A) The corrections in the dorsal, coordinating the cervical area with same, will relieve tension. The condition in the antrum needs attention. This will come with the use of the better diet, as well as with the massage as may be given for correcting same.
12. (Q) Does this cause the dizziness at times as if I am losing my balance? (A) As indicated, through the liver and the coordinating of the circulation between liver and kidneys.
13. (Q) What causes sharp pains in back of head at times? (A) All of these result from the same sources of disturbance. Do as indicated and we will save the self from a great deal of distress later, as well as becoming too heavy and not able to navigate.
14. We are through for the present. Two copies to Self - (one for Dr. M. L. Richardson, Bankers Trust Bldg., Norfolk, Va.) Copy to Ass'n file (9/26/43 GD's note with copy of the reading: Call 288-J and ask Mrs. Mae Gimbert Verhoeven if she can tell you where in Oceana you can obtain the Jerusalem artichoke. I think someone within 2-3 blocks of you has a patch of them. Patapar Paper may be obtained from Swartz Dept. Store in Norfolk, on the 3rd-4th floor, with kitchen utensils, etc. - 25 cents a dozen sheets.)
