The Inner Life

at my home in Montana, and I would gladly let you examine them if they were available.) There was never a day I did not use the gift in my newspaper work.

I have had short stories in nationally known magazines, also have written many feature articles; and I entered the newspaper game without a day’s experience, and “made good” alongside of college trained men. I attribute it to Psychometry, if you wish to call it that—but now I know I have been simply trying to contact the Christ within, and he has been teaching and using me.

I am here alone on a 1600 acre stock ranch; taking care of hundreds of head of cattle—with no experience. One of the best stockmen dropped in this morning to visit a moment. I told him what I had been doing in the way of feeding, and handling certain situations; and he said I had done EXACTLY RIGHT in all cases. Why?

M. every day to reading, prayer and meditation. Since coming here, I get up at 4:30, so I spend 15 minutes with the Father, to get the “key” for the day; and after the work is done, (about 11 A. M.) I spend from that time to 5 o’clock, and then from 7 to 8:30, when I retire.

Nothing heroic. I could not live any other way. These are the only hours that count—in my day life; of course, the night hours—that is the time we truly live. I firmly believe (and it is my own belief) that this life is just a drama—that every night
