If all goes as per schedule, Dr. Aron and a staff of expert fasters will leave on July 22 for a thousand-acre | estate in the Rocky Mountains, where they plan to indulge in ideal fast” lasting from’ forty to ninety days. The period will depend, no doubt, not on the tenacity of the fasters, but on the length of | time it really takes to “hypnotize and re-educate the world’s subconscious mind by holding the perfect vi- sion during fasting.” | Did you know that fifty multi-r | Street are secret ing solves the sex, marriage fasting is the straight r: alth, love and. usefulness? n be an illionaires in Wall Did you know that fast- nd economic problems ? 1 to beauty, health, That industrial effi- creased a thousand per cent. through That the brotherhood of man can be un- war outlawed and world peace secured, the folded, world-wide inferiority complex crushed, clairvoyancy achieved, the sleeping milli ety of star performers cr de to arrive pretty lectures: maki And they don't ts akencd, a world nd the superman through fasting? have been going on up any coll soc’ Incidentally the fasters have two good practical ideas.

They are known as Miss | Physical Elimination, Miss Mental Concentration and Miss Spiritual Mlumination, And at each lee- ture there's a “golden-throated soprano” who sings the fasters’ theme song, “Oh!
