During my earlier years in America I had combed the coast of California in quest of a small site for a seaside ashram; whenever I had found a suitable location, some obstacle had invariably arisen to thwart me. A few months later, Easter of 1937, I conducted on the smooth lawns at Encinitas the first of many Sunrise Services.

He would also like you to write a comprehensive account of what the Bahá’ís have endured in Germany since 1937 for the “Bahá’í World”, vol. X, and send it to him as soon as possible. The news of the German believers’ activities has been sadly missed in the last two volumes, and he is anxious to have them take their place again as soon as possible.
I thought I would get one, but all I got was some PWA work, and this year they told me I was too old for that. I told 'em I wasn't but 91, but they didn't give nothin' else. I guess I'll get my pension soon, though. My oldest boy ought to get it, too; he's sixty-five." Jules A.
