OUR CREED.

We believe in God; we love nature
because it is his handiwork, and we be
lieve that the human body is the great
est of all His creations.
We believe that He created the hu'
man body to perform certain work
that in this creation He reached per
fection; that since the body is perfect
ly constructed for the performance of
certain work, it will accomplish these
tasks Just so long as it is kept in har-
mony with the environment which He
created for it.
We believe that, to this end, He gave
to each body q mind capable of Observ-
ing the laws of nature and of ADJUST
ing its body thereto that He gave us
food, water and air, with which to
nourish the body and that He gave us
the special senses, sight, hearing
touch, etc, with which to protect it.
We believe that if we transgress the
laws Of nature. knowingly or otherwise
we shall suffer from abnormal func
tioning of the body or its parts. until
we have made use of these gifts of
mind to correct such abnormal cOndi-
lions and that the methods best to use
are the natural ones which have been
given us, rather than the artificial ones
which we have invented ourselves.
