Then fell upon the house a sudden gloom
A shadow on those tiny features fair and thiI

Two angels issued where but one went in.

him overwhelmingly. He took the
stump for prohibition in his home
state and the cause won. In the re.

Hobson stumped the state with the

there is little doubt OF his success.
He is in earnest and will elsotrify

ONE AND ONE MAKE TWO?
Not Always. by Any Means. According
to Sir oliver Lodge.

Sir Oliver Lodge has attracted
tremendous amount 81 attention by
telling scientists lof whom he is one
that he believes In immortality in spite
OF science This Is not the first time
he has locked horns with scientific
dogma In his book Modern Prob
lens" he atiirns that one and one
do not always make two And this is
the almost frivolous" way he makes
his point:
II would contend that. whereas the
proposition that one added 10 one
makes two IS abstractedy beneath
controversy. it need not be true for
the addition OF concrete things. II is
not true for two slObules OF mercury
for instance. nor for n couple Of collld.
ing stars: not true for a pint OF water
added TO a pint OF oil or vitrlol. nor
for nitric oxide added to oxygen. nor
FOR the ingredients OF an explosive
mixture: not necessarily true. either
for snakes IN cage. or for capital in
vested in Il business concern. flour
ishing or otherwise. nor is il true save
In q temporary manner. Tor 2 couple
of trout added 10 a pond Life can
make havoc Of arithmetic.
THE moral OF an which is that
propositions can be clear and simple
and sure enough. indeed absolutely
certain. rs long rs you deal with ali
stractions. but that when you come to
concrete realities and have all the
complexities OF the universe behind
you-not only behind but In front and
among and intermingled with ever,
simplest thing-then we perforce step
out Of the realm of positive dogmatic
security into the region OF reasonable
and probable Inference the domain Of
pragmatic conviction. OF commonplace
intuition. Of familiar faith
