(Continued from page 548) But, in the thought world, we are like Mr. Carnegie and Mr. Rockefeller in the physical world. We have acquired more mental assets than we know what to do with, through a system that we didn’t invent, and we are now simply thought philanthropists. Very well. Then our only object is to raise the standard of our mental subscribers, and we can only do this by subjecting all those on the outside who want to come in to a period of mental probation. Incidentally, we make them pay a slight mental premium of five dol- lars, but this is purely nominal and only imposed as a guarantee of good faith, That there are some good people who thoroughly understand our aim is shown by the following vibra- tion which Gee. Ime. Mit. has just handed out to us: “Why not establish a Mental LIFE Foundation?” In other words, this man wants to know what we propose to do with the immense imaginary resources now in our hands. We could easily turn an election; we could stem the tide of Rooseveltism; we might even be able to lower the tariff. And evidently our friend feels that this power ought to be safeguarded. Let him have no fear. Gee. Ime. Mit. is equal to every emergency. In one hundred years from now peo- ple will be erecting imaginary monuments to him at every cross-road. For the present it is sufficient to say that we need all our resources to produce each week the best mental LIFE we can. Our mental salary list, for example, is something enormous. Last week every medium on the force struck for higher wages. In order to record vibrations as they flow in, it is necessary to go into a trance. Now, skilled trance ex- perts are high. We pay some of our best men as high as fifty dollars an hour, and even then they will cnly remain in trance eight hours a day, and insist on taking an hour ond a half cff at noon. It takes up a great deal of Gee. Ime. Mit.’s valuable time watching his force to see that they don’t shirk. Recently we had to pay our Christian Scientists double wages to work overtime, and even then they claimed there was nothing in it. In the meantime, every mental LIFE is a vibratory joy. Better pay five dollars at once and get on the waiting list. The thought that in about twenty-five years you will be a regular subscriber will make you young again.
