Ghosts Are Playful

A representative Of the Psychic Re-
search Library Of Boston and First
.Selectman Edward e. Kent started in
dependent Investigations to-day Of mys-
terious happenings reported at the
home Of Mrs. Sedley Lowd. Accord
ing to Mrs. Lowd and others, chairs
and heavier pieces Of furniture perform
sudden gyrations, buttons take flight
from a workbasket into the air and
table forks and stove wood shoot
through windows without warning. The
psychic research investigator, it was
announced, would make his visit con-
tingent upon the Lowd family's consent.
The occurrences as reported by Mrs.
Lowd, who is an aged woman; her son,
Herbert, and their neighbers have
stirred the town to such an extent
that the Selectman felt he ought to OBJ
tain some first hand information if
possible. Since the alleged peculiar
manifestations began early in the
week the house Of Mrs. Lowd has been
besieged by curious persons and self
appointed Investigators.
Mr.. Kent said tonight that he prob
ably would go to the house within a
few days. Residents OF the town Of the
highest reputation for veracity, the
selectman said, had told him of their
Lersonal experiences in tho house. One
Of these, whom I would believe sooner

walked few steps, and then the chair
fell over without being touched by
