here and now, and that personality

The evidence In my mind goes to
prove that discarnate intelligence

act with us on the material side,
thus indirectly coming within our
scientific ken; and that gradually we
may hope to attain some under

perhaps ethereal, existence; and OF

course across the chasm. A body Of
responsible investigators even now

Genuine religion has it's roots
deep down in the heart Of humanity

is not surprising that by our meth,

A Deeper Meaning.

Surely there must be deeper
meaning involved in natural OBJ
Jects. Orthodox explanations are
only partial, though true as far as
they go. Flowers attract insects
for fertilization; and fruit tempts
animals to eat it in order to carry
seeds. But these explanations can
not be final We still have to ex-
plain the insects. We have further
to explain this competitive striv-
ing towards life. Surely the effort
must have some significance, the
development some aim. We thus
reach the problem of existence it
self, and the meaning Of evolution.
If we dogmatize in negative di-
rection and say that we can reduce
everything to physics and chemis-
try, we gibbet ourselves as ludi-
crously narrow pedants, and are
falling short of the richness and
fullness of our human blrthright.
But if we have learned from science
that evolution is real, we have
learned a great deal. I must not
venture to philosophiZe, but certain
ly from the point Of view of sci
ence evolution Is great reality.
That evolution progress is real
is a doctrine Of profound signif-
cance and our efforts at social bet
terment are justified because we are
a part Of the scheme, part that
has become conscious, part that
realizes, dimly at any rate. what
it is doing and what il is aiming at.

Federation Expenses.

Gonpers said the federation spent ss147
in political work in the campaign of 1906
and $s469 in that Of 1908. Much OF this
money went for speakers and for postage
used in the distribution OF campaign lit

Maintains Immortality.

Either we are immortal beings or
we are not. We may not know our
destiny, but we must have destiny
Of some sort. Those who make de-
malls are just as likely to be wrong
as those who make assertions; in
fact, denials are assertions thrown
into negative form. Science may
not be able to reveal human des-
tiny, but il certainly should not OBJ
scure it. Things are as they are,
whether VIC find them out or not:
if posterity ever troubles its head
about US.
I am one of those who think
that the methods of science
are not so limited in their scope
as has been thought; that they can
be applied much more widely and
that the phychic region can be stud
led and brought under law too. AL
low us anyhow to make the at
tempt. Givs us a fair field.
This is not the place to enter into
details or to discuss facts scorned
by orthodox science. but 7 cannot
help remembering that an utterance
from this chair is no ephemeral pro-
duction. for it remains TO be crit
icised by generations yet unborn,
whose knowledge must inevitably
be fuller and wider than our own.
