"Exercise Class at 11:30 a.m."

For those who have attended Unity Training School, the words will recall many happy and profitable hours spent in the classes conducted by Dr. George LeRoy Dale.

Dr. Dale is the highly-esteemed Registrar of the Training School. His duties bring him into close contact with all the students, and his attitude is always helpful and encouraging. In former years he was a physical-culture director, and this experience is now put to good use as he conducts his unique exercise classes. He has a truly wonderful way of combining metaphysical teaching with his exercises, thus illustrating and emphasizing the important principles presented. There is never any strained effort. Everything moves along easily, rhythmically, and joyously, and all who take part feel refreshed and renewed. In short, the exercise classes are times of inspiration and uplift, with a corresponding enrichment of consciousness.

The exercises and songs contained in this book are those actually used in Dr. Dale's classes, and when systematically practiced will bring about beneficial results.

Dr. Dale in his daily life and activities exemplifies the physical and metaphysical aspects of his teaching. He thoroughly believes in and practices the Golden Rule in all its aspects. Recently, a student remarked, "Any man who needs a friend, and looks to Dr. Dale, never looks in vain!" Certainly George LeRoy Dale's friendly spirit permeates this helpful little book; and those who put into practice what is herein suggested will find that these are indeed Special Methods for Attaining Spiritual Mastery.
