STUDENTS SUPPOSED
DEAD, BOTH REVIVED
ONE OF DROWNED" BOYS GIVES
A GLIMPSE OF FUTURE WORLD
AFTER RECOVERY.

Chicago, June 29.-Roland Abey,
20 years of age, a junior at North
western university, was yesterday
pronounced dead by Capt. Garland,
of the United States coast guards
Thomas Leonardo who was with Alb
ey when their canoe capsized, also
was given up for dead, but both were
revived after long effort. Today
young Abey sat. up, very much alive,
and related his weird experiences
during the forty-five minutes life
savers were working over him with
pulmotors.
There is some sort of life after
what we call DEATH" said Abey. Il
can no longer doubt it after my eX-
periences. If you can imagine a
world filled with the most gorgeous
daubs of futuristic colors-purples
and Colds and crimsons-a world
peopled by fantastic variety of be-
ings, resembling more nearly than
anything else Russian ballet dancers,
you will have some idea of the here
after which / experienced yesterday.
1T was a rhythmic world, pulsing
constantly to a 1924 measure.
am not altogether sure of the nature
of that life, if life it be, but there is
continuation Of human conscious
ness after the phenomenon which we
call death, though it may be a con-
sciousness of a sort different from
any that we know anything about.
am now certain of that.
THE world in which / lived dur
ing those forty-five minutes was a
world of what we commonly know
as subconscious. 1t was something
like the sensations one experiences
after taking gas, only the sensations
and impressions were a great deal
more vivid and more easily recalled"

people complain of insomnia. Why
should they consider it misfortune
to live precious hours instead of
spending them in unconsciousness? I?
BY sleeping even as much as five
hours instead of nine we gain twen-
ty-one hours a week. Think of it.!
Almost three working days.
The reason the average person is
so exhausted by lying awake a few
hours longer than he is accustomed
to do is because he turns and twists
in his bed, bemoaning his sad fate,
until he has worked himself into a
fever. Stay awake; enjoy the night
1T is quite as wonderful as the day.
Taste the charm of the silence as it
steals by degrees over your weary
spirit. Be grateful for these hours ;
they are gifts from Fate. Read,
write, think, mediate, and when
morning COMES you will wake more
refreshed after Gwo hours sleep than
yousused to after nine. Napoleon and
other great men never slept more.

0NE Of the greatest advantages
Of invalidism is that it frees US
from petty obligations, unworthy
pleasures and meaningless conven-
tions, writes Mrs. Leo Everett in her
book, The Privilege Of Pain, pub
lished by Small, Maynard & Co. The
blessed freedom of ill-health is some
thing few people appreciate; neither
have they learned to make full use
Of it's unearned leisure. Yet we are
always ciamofing for time; in Amer
lea, apparently, it can be found only
in the sickroom.
Suffering quickens individuality
by removing the pressure Of circum-
stance, custom and occupation. More
over, in the sickroom the intellect
as well as the soul has not only
the liberty but the time to mature.

the chassis of their car, or go out
and buy trailer with all the ready
made comforts of home. You become
a full fiedged Tin Gamer the first
night you drive your car under

"Well, folks, here we are. Let's
eat."
Probably before the night is over
two or three more camping parties
will be under the same tree. In the
morning you are all off in a bunch,
heading South.
Along the main line of travel
many towns not included in the
official winter resort sector have
set up camps to ensuare the passing
motorist. They may post the road

Locking in on the aristocracy at
Palm Beach, bounding along the
beach at Ormond, taking in the old
fort at ST. Augustine and the ostrich

all these fall under the head Of
conscientious duties for a Tin Can
ner.
But, after all. sightseeing Is only
byproduct Of the game. The main
thought is to turn the calendar back
to last summer. It's an easy mat
ter if you go at it in the right way.
And the Tin Can tourists seem to
know how.

get close to nature.

New-York tribune., 1921-01-30
By Torrey Ford

VT WASN'T moresthan a year or
so ago that the sunny South,
lower California and other
balmy points were generally consid-
cred the specially reserved winter
Fairgrounds for a select little group
of persons who were, among other
things, disgustingly rich. The rest
of US sat home and glanced long
ingly at the Sunday pictorial Sec
tions.
February bathing parties, golf
beneath kindly sun, fishing on the
Caloosahatchie-it all seemed
paradise beyond the dreams of the
average man. And it was.
While there were those who could
meet the tax of transportation with
out losing their financial equilib-
rum the winter resort hotels had
an annoying habit of taking en-
tirely too much for granted. They
assumed, most Of them, that man
who took his vacation in the winter
time had an income built on long,
sweeping lines. 1t was enough to
discourage any mere tripper.
Glass Distinction Dies
But with the advent of the Tin
Can tourist all this class discrimina-
tion has been forgotten.
Perhaps you know what a Tin
Can tourist is without any further
explanations. Or perhaps you don't.
In general debate of this kind we
have to cater to all grades of intelli-
gence. So it seems rather necessary
here at the outset to establish def
nitely that a Tin Can tourist is a
person who carries his own.
To avoid not unnatural conclu-
sion, we should hasten to add that
we mean he carries his own canned
comforts - food, lodging, icebox,
front porch and other accessories of
modern living. In brief, he owns
motor bungalow, trailing parlor,
bedroom and bath, or flivver with
runningboards that unbutton and
make up into pair of twin beds.
These intimate details depend
mainly on the size of mans family
and the degree of his enthusiasm as
tourist But any way he sets out
he sees the world in regal fashion.
Just Ahead of Jack Frost
At the first touch Of frost the Tin
Can tourists are off in rush. They
pass the Mason and Dixon line along
about November Is and never show
themselves north Of Dixie until after
the first violets Of spring. And they
don't have to worry about advanced
Pullman rates or profteering hotels
OF anything like that. They carry
their own.
On the way down it is a mere
matter of the daily grind through
the states and roadside camping
but once within the professional sun
shine belt the haphazard aspect of
the sport ceases and there begins
the serious business of settling in
some congenial colony for the winter.
You would hardly expect the Off
cial proprietors of the South to hang
out any very gay welcome signs for
these motorized gypsies. You'd al
most think they would run them out
Of the country ss poachers on the
divine rights of the plutocracy. You
might-unless you happened to drop
down and see for yourself.
