THE SURVIVAL PROBLEM
By H. Addington Bruce
Vie services OF trance mediums" pr

| 1 1esSlonal and private, are nowada We
much in demand. Steadily the numher
rows OF those who believe that through those

VINO mus believe appreciate all the nossihi1i.
, tles winch have to be taken into account in
TOR survival after death
Many, in fact, do not even take sufsicon+
~ INTO account the possibility of fraud
PrauuuIentty inclined mediums as has heen
repeatedly found, are adopts in drawing in
,orila lion from unsuspecting patrons They
i Antf, the latter to talk about themselves.
Artiully they induce them to drop hints as
TO the age, sex. relationship, and personality
OF the dead man or woman from whom the
sltters" specially wish to hear.
mus in the course of few vsits-some-
! umes during the first visit-the medium is
aple TO startle and convince by statements
purportlng to come from the spirit world vet
actually obtained from the unwary and over
credulous sitters themselves.
And when fraud has been definitely ruled
out there remain other factors which have tn
be reckoned with before one can feel certain
that one is actually receiving spirit messages.
In his recent book, Contact With the Other
World" Professor Hyslop surveys these fac
TORS IN chapter which I commend to the
close attention of all inqurers in the occuJt
Says Professor Hyslop:
I'VE may exclude fraud from the exnlana-
ton OF supernormal phenomena and vet have
subconsclous action of the subject to reckon
with in explaining them
IF apparently supernormal phenomena can
be explained by the resurrection of subcon-
scious memories or the production of auto-
matte actions, the claims of supern ormality
must be abandoned"
Moreover:
Assume that we have eliminated the SUBJ
conscious from the explanation of the facts.
There are still the possibilities of chance CO.
incidence, or guessing"
And still further:
so long as telepathy (thought transfer
ence) is conceivably applicable to the phenom-
ena it will stand as an objection to the hypo-
thesis of spirits
"Spiritistic evidence consist of facts which
can be explained only by the continued per-
sonal idetity of deceased persons, involving
memories possessed by the deceased person
and transmitted to the living by supernornal
MEANS"
Fraud, guessing, chance coincidence sub
conscious mental action, and teIepathy-all
these, indeed, must be kept in mind in evalu-
ating alleged spirit messages.
Otherwise there will always be liability
to self-deception leading to convictions which
however pleasing, are without substantial
basis. This is a danger against which investi-
gators of psychic phenomena cannot be too
emphatically warned.

The Southeastern Far.

"HE leadership established by the South
eastern Fair in the territory east of
the Mississippi and south of the Ohio
rivers promises to be strengthened by the
annual exhibition next month. The man
agement has spared neither pains nor ex-
pense in it's arrangements for the season Of
1919, examination of the premium list
and special attractions we'll attests.
The premium list indicates that the man
agement of the Fair is seeking especially to
encourage and promote the live stock in
dustry in the Southeast, and it is promised
that the live stock exhibit will surpass any
heretofore shown in the South. The industry
has taken big hold on the people through
out the section and the exhibit at the South
eastern Fair will bring together in friendly
competition some of the finest live stock to
be seen anywhere
A unique feature of the Fair will be the
Boys Farm school, which has gained in pop
ularity since it's introduction some two years
ago. Every, county in Georgia will be rep
resented in this school by two boys, who will
be selected by competitive examinations.
These boys will be guests of the Assocla-
ton. Their expenses to and from Atlanta
will be borne by the association, and through
out the progress of the Fair they Will pc en-
tertained at Lakewood, where each day they
will attend lectures to be given by experts
from the State College of Agriculture at
Athens and the Department OF Agriculture at
Washington These instructors will use prize
exhibits of live stock and farm products at
the fair to illustrate their lectures, and the
public will be afforded every opportunity OF
enjoying these discussions and reaplng tner
benefits
Some idea of the magnitude and growth OF
the Southeastern Fair may be gathered from
the announcement that this year the assocla-
ton is expending $125,OOO, and from tnls
expenditure it expects not only SURPRISING
live stock display but also the greatest agrl-
cultural exhibits it is possible to assemble;

STONES

Day dreams, like mirages, rise from the dust
where the hearts of the world have
fallen,
Building fair castles whose spires leap up to
the utmost star;
But hands that are stained with the blood
rust of everyday travail
Place real stone upon stone as they are.
Stones fall awry where the hands have been
broken and twisted
And chip with big chips that CLEAN like new
broken bone;
But still the throng labors, sweating and
twisting and placing
Stone upon stone
Build, build, build-and then climb as each
stone creeps up on another,
Climb-till you kiss the star that dances in
space.
Each stone is a dream to carry your winged
upfeetings
Till you laugh in tune with the wind-god
feeling the JOY of his breath in your
face.
