Spiritualisti Declare
London'.-—Announcement that spirit
•voices from the other world soon would
be broadcasted by radio was made at a
recent meeting oh-the London Spiritu
alist Alliance, Limited, members of
which had assembled to discuss the
i, question, vis-Lord Nortbcliffe dead?”
Sir Edward Marshall Hall, K. C., a
noted barrister, presided.
News that efforts were being made to
f hold seances by means of the wireless
was made known to- the members of
the alliauce bv Miss Louise Owen, pri
‘ Tate secretary to the late Lord North
> cliffe, who reported that ‘‘before long
we are going to be able to broadcast
the spirit-voices by radio.*’ Previous
to this announcement Miss Owen said
she had a recent message from Lord
Nortbcliffe- for the women attending
the meeting,- and this was that the
« women everywhere should organize for
the purpose of bringing about abolitiou
o» war and “let-it be known that they
would not-bring boys into the world for
the purnose of beiDg massacred.”
Sir A. Conan Doyle, the Rev. G. Vale
Owen and numerous others told of
their experiences at various seances
• when they had communicated with the
former wall known newspaper pub
iisber* Rev. Owen asserted that four
days after Lord Northclilfe’s death he
had been in touch with him, and that
i 9 ve days-later a message came saying,
**£ want to thank you for your prayers
for me. -They helped me so much.”
The principal speaker of the evening
was Han Den Swaffer, one of the best
known spiritualists in London and for
< mierly tu .Lord Northcliffe’s employ,
who* recited his experiences, saying
that bat-recently lie had been in com
• an-unication with his former employer
’ for two hours.
In one message Mr. Swaffer quoted
Lord Northcliffe as sayiug: “Instead
of holding up bolshevism, tickle ’em.”
A later message, according to Mr.
Swaffer, said: “Too many advertise
• suents, and-leadera too long:” this, it
was ,taken,, having had reference to
some of the former Nortbcliffe pubiica
t lions.
“I hear that Nortbcliffe has been
reaching other circles, and that ho is
now a slightly different Nortbcliffe,”
Mr. Swaffer averred. “He can look
• down on suffering. He champions the
• endeavors of the League of Nations.
He says-that we cannot stamp out so
cialism:, it is too old and too strong.
Nortbcliffe said, ‘I made a mistake

about Lloyd George, which I regret. I

Further, Mr. Swafler quoted the late
publisher as saying: “I am out to stop
war before anything. I intend to stop
it. I intend to bring about equality for
all tneD, and when every uaan and every
woman is a spiritualist we shall cot
have to view the struggle between cap
ital and labor.”
A letter from Earl Haig, read to the
alliance members, follows: ‘*1 am sorry
I am unable to attend the meeting. I
had a very sincere regard for Lord
NorthclilTe, and I hope that your ef
forts to convince the world of the sur
vival of his personality after death will
meet with success.”
The Unhappy Finish of a Robert
Burns Dinner.
‘‘The scene was one I’ll never for
get.” was the unhappy comment of a
Scotsman as he left the Burns dinner
of the Oxford Caledonian Society on
Monday night.
Owing to a mistake, no exteusion of
the license had been applied for, and at
10 o’clock, when the toast of the “im
mortal memory” had beeD reached,
the guests were amazed to find that the
waiters were removing bottles of
whisky, port and other liquors.
These were replaced bv ginger ale,
and the remainder of the toasts were
received without enthusiasm.—London
Daily Mail.
They Still Indulge.
“Everybody knows prohibition
doesn’t prohibit.”
The speaker was Captain W. H.
Slayton, head of the Association
Against the Prohibition Amendmeat.
He went on.
The talk you hear everywhere con
vinces you that prohibition doesn’t
prohibit. For instauce, a pretty lady
said to a sour-lookiog one at a so
ciable:
“ *Mv husband is so indulgent.’
•‘ ‘Yes, so everybody says,’ the sour
looking ladv replied. ‘Sometimes in
dulges a littie too much, doesn’t he?’ ”
The late Senator Braodegfce was a
good French scholar, and at a reunion
of the ^ ale class of ’85 he once said:
“A working knowledge of French is
very useful. A rich Westerner entered
a smart Washington restaurant the
other day with two pretly girls.
“Will you have the table-d’-hote or
the a-la-carte, sir?” the waiter asked
him.
“ ‘Both,’ said the rich man, huskily.
‘Both, with plenty of gravy.* ”

The brilliant satirical essayist, ;'nez

women’* club.
"Two Pittsburgh bankers." aba went
on, “were talking the other day about
a finaneier who had failed.
“ ‘And did poor Bill accept bis fail
ure like a man?’ asked the &rst banker,
11 ‘Exactly like a man,' the second
answered. ‘He blamed -it on bio ex

The Patient Creditor—I hoar you’ve'

and you promised to remember me

Mr. Everbroke—Oh, I didn’t forget
you. You were constantly on my mind.
I was afraid I’d run across you every
time I went on the street.
