class of ignoramuses with the Professor who told the youth not to read LAWSON’S book DIRECT CREDITS FOR EVERYBODY because, as he said, “It is no good.”
 When the youngster asked him if he had read that book, the Professor said, “No, I would not read such stuff.”
 “Well.” inquired the boy, “if you have not read the book, how do you know it is no good?”
 Professors who are paid by financiers to miseducate the people often find that their pupils are not as dumb as they think they are.
 Now, this post card writer, who appears to be intellectually keen, takes the attitude that God is responsible for man’s defects.
 He asks, “Why does God permit over 1700 diseases to inflict us?”
 The answer to that question is, because, according to Natural Law, God permits inactive creatures to perish.
 Yes, God allows lazy and degraded people to rot by their own choice.
 God furnishes every living creature with a physical body, mental instruments and a spiritual soul for the purpose of self development. He furnishes an abundance of nourishment for every living creature to subsist upon. He also furnishes numberless constructive microscopic menorgs to work within each creature’s body to build it up, make it grow and keep it in repair.
 These menorgs, who keep the creature in repair and operate its mental and physical movements, depend upon the strength of the Soul to properly guide them in the selection of the correct building materials required for growth, repair and self development.
 Air, water, sunlight and vegetation are the four main materials that man requires for his subsistence here on Earth.
 To withhold these materials in their natural state from human creatures makes it impossible for the menorgs to keep their machinery in workable condition.
 So, through the lack of the proper building materials with which to build and repair the different organs, muscles, bones, etc., of the body, they decay and the body suffers the consequences of improper functioning.
 According to the different parts ot the body that are affected by the lack of necessary building and operating materials, the medical fraternity apply grandiloquent names for the different disorders that result therefrom.
 Now if you asked that post card Doctor to give you the proper definition of the word disease, he couldn’t do it.
 So he wrote to Alfred Lawson to learn something about the subject. That act showed signs of intelligence. He evidently assumed that there was a man on Earth that could answer his questions correctly, although he wasn’t quite sure that this man could answer them either.
 He had probably waded through many shelves of books relating to the subject and had been unable to find anything but fanciful theories that led him into a mess of falsi-
