Show STAFF WRITERS elwyn blake aletheia AIe theia chamberlain marie mane af ogden dear friends everywhere Ever where in recent messages of f guidance we are told of changes in the offing for us in several ways and one of them concerns our newspaper activities of these we shall speak in brief now although we are still unable to make the more definite change to follow possibly by the i first of the year many weeks weeks ago we asked for comments and suggestions suggestion from our readers concerning concert ng things they would like to see included as reading material or about things they would like to see changed or discontinued As a result we received suggestions from some of our distant readers and we learned if of others through closer contact with friends in this location some of these were in accord with wit h things we have had bad in mind for future improvement Improve lent while ethers are impossible to give consideration to until more whole hearted support is jex extended tended from certain quarters which will allow us to enlarge the scope of our work and increase the size of our paper some to accamo date the local friends who make unkind criticism of our editorial page because iti it includes so many references to our own activities it has long been our desire to print a se sheet to include these more personal things and that is one of the changes we hope to make by the first of the year at which time nax w shall discontinue our present form of monthly news letter to go on to our own members in all parts of the country we have other changes in mind to attract the attention of our local friends and one of them is to establish a section for our young folks in which they may contribute of their talent and such articles of kal n terest as will emphasize their lish h ments in school and during hours of recreation This will be possible to do when demake we make tile the sepe ration of our own material and as we said edid before easier ti tado do when areace support is extended from some who make suggestions but who fail to help held in a material ways way so that we may make these improvements I 1 we are gradually working wor leing toward this end however and we are certain that it will occur mccu in the not nob distant future future therefore we bespeak your support in all ways kays and above all in patience in inso so far as our seem ing desire to stress our own affairs in such definite manner we are try trying ing to make of our ur weekly journal one that will satisfy all types of readers and because we KNOW that it will gradually resolve into a national and later into an international organ or instrument ment of intelligence we are making avei every y effort toward this end the outline Is in the making even now and because we also wish to include as much information concerning our nearby friends who are arc ion long time residents resident shere here we offer the suggestion to be thinking about such improvements you may be interested to see and to talk them over with us when we make the definite change referred to 0 above we shall discontinue sending our special sheet to local fols folks UNLESS THEY ASK FOR IT in this way there can cin be no occasion io to say ay that we are tr trying ying to force OUO alews or to promote our own efforts as we occasion aly hear given as an excuse for not subscribing to the san juan record then our paper will resolve into a larger issue for some and into a local newspaper for those who it as such in the meantime we must continue our present form since we confine our affairs to only one page e and soon we hope to comply with certain suggestions gest zest ions loAs offered or those to BE OFFERED with this issue we shall make one change in that thai we will include under the caption special SP MESSAGE 1 some bome of the inspirational rational thoughts offered by others in some instances they shall be from our own members in which case the article will so be designated as in the one offered to today only initials will alpar to designate the writer although you may know tile the full name if you care to ask for it ib and if we have permission to offer it fe we have many fine manuscripts which we are eager to share with you and because they so clearly indicate the advancement in spiritual which many ciany are making now the one offered today is unusually fine and was written byone of our own men as a result of his closer contact with nattile as he was working on our distant mountain top encampment recently our loving thoughts go forth to our friends everywhere as we make daily contact with the divine source in order that we may genera temore love to extend to faithfully yours f 0 oual so P S As I 1 was completing copy for this weeks issue a letter was received from our chicago fr friend bend mrs sarah irene krone with an article she had bad prepared for publication as a result of a request I 1 made of her to try to dispose of a apiece of jewelry for me in order that it may help to defray tile the cost of some lumber we have lla e purchased which is like an answer to a prayer because we MUST have it in order to prepare some of tile the future buildings so necessary to have within this three mile area because lofb the fact that we have raised the necessary money but in so doing were compelled to mortgage much more than the bracelet in order to secure a bank loan we are willing to publish this article and because it SPEAKS TRUTH in so far as the children are concerned for we have known since 1932 that we have a great work to do with and for the children when the greater changes come upon the earth we are therefore grateful to our eastern friend for her voluntary effort to acquaint you with certain facts which she mentions in her article we to too have heard from friends who see ee the future conditions and who are aware of the establishment of this isolated country according to visions they have had of the th completed comp feted buildings only TIME will prove the truth of these things but in the meantime we MUST BE PREPARING FOR THEM as our guidance directs us to do you will find this friends letter in another column and we are sure it will interest you |
