Does Personality Exist After Death?

bend directly by any of our senses,
is the one all-permeating sub
stance that binds the whole of the
particles e matter together. 1t is
the uniting and binding medium
without which, if matter could
exist at all, 1t could exist only as
chaotic and in isolated fragments;
and it is the universal medium Of
communication between worlds
and particles. And yet 1t is pos
sible for people to deny its ex-
istence because it Is unrelated to
any of our senses except sight
and to that only in an indirect
and not easily regarded fashion"
His opinion about the exist

around us is clearly expressed in
the following words:
Tn justice to myself and my
co-workers" (this refers to his
associates IN the Society for
Psychical Research) Il must risk
annoying my present hearers, not
only by leaving on record our con-
viction that occurrences now re-
garded as occult can be examined
and reduced to order by the meth
DDS of science carefully and per-
sistently applied, but by going
further and saying. with the ut
most brevity. that already the
facts so examined have convinced
me that memory and affection are
not limited to that association
with matter by which alone they
can manifest themselves here and
now. and that personality persists
beyond bodily death.
''The evidence. to my mind,
goes to prove that discarnate in
telligence under certain conditions
may interact with us on the ma
terial side, thus indirectly com
ing within our scientific ken. and
that gradually we may hope to
attain some understanding of a
larger, perhaps ethereal. existence
and Of the conditions regulating
intercourse across the chasm. A
body of responsible investigators

treacherous but promising shores

TINE most remarkable state
ment that has yet been
made of the present atti-
tude of science in its effort to
comprehend the world around us
is the recent address of Sir Oliver
Lodge as president of the British
Association for the Advancement
of Science.
The facts and theories that he
mentions are not new to those
who have closely followed the
progress OF scientific thought, but
it is his grouping of them that
makes his statement valuable.
And, then, he has thrown out sug-
gestions about things as yet but
dimly seen which are full of in
spiration for all who use their
brains for some higher purpose
than merely getting money or
contriving idle amusements to
fritter away their brief time on
earth.
The topic of Sir Oliver Lodges
address is Continuity" The most
continuous, or uninterrupted, ma
terial thing Of which we have
any conception is the ether. The

The Need of a New Boys High School

come wise and prudent citi
zens, capable of carrying on
the government of the city
perhaps, at some future date
Many prominent citizens of
Atlanta at present are alumni
of the Boys High School, and
apparently the members Of
the Council believe that this
fact is conclusive proof that
the Boys High School needs
no attention. Without regard
to the increase in attendance.
it is apparent to the most
cursory Of observers, that the
very building itself Is no
longer what it once was.
Considering the source Of this
suggestion, we incline TO think II
worthy of immediate and earnest
attention.
These high school boys are old
enough to know EXACTLY
WHAT THEY WANT AND
NEED IN MATTERS OF THIS
KIND
The Georgian extends 10 itF
contemporary, The Boys High
School Tattler, the complete a.
surance of it's respect and most
distinguished consideration!
We are persuaded The Tattler
tells only such tales out Of school
as may safely and sanely be told,
If The Tattler thinks the Boys
High School needs a new bullu-
ing the Georgian inclinss to think
SO, tool
And to that end, we trust tho
powers that be will give du~ at
tention to what The Tattler has
to say with respect to this ana

young woman has no recourse in

these things is true but that
they are merely the pipe dreams
of some modern Claude Lorraine,
In handing down the opinion
the justice said:
ut is a well -recognized princi-
pie that, in the state of mental
exaItation accompanying court
ship, statements made as to the
mental, moral or financial condi-
ton of the parties shall not be too
closely scrutinized, nor shall they
be held to a strict accountability
therefor"
This is not only the law, but 1t
is the commonly accepted view
of the matter. Men and women
who are otherwise honest and
who would scorn to gamble with
loaded dice or marked cards do
not hesitate to play the love game
crooked
Men who would not inveigle an
other man into a business under
false pretenses do not scruple to
entice a woman into matrimony
