METAL FRAME FOR
 TENNIS RACQUETS
Best Players in Country Are Making Tests of New Invention
 in Sport Line.

New York, Jan. 27.-A tennis racquet having metal frame is be- ing tested by several of the first ten ranking players of the country with the idea of manufacture in large quantities in case it proves adaptable to the modern court game. The rac- uuet is the invention of William A. larned, many times national cham pion and one of the closest students of the game. Larned conceived the idea of substituting a metal frame for the usual wooden rim racquet some months ago, and has been experiment. ing with several models since.
 Tn It's latest form the racquet con- ssts of steel frame pierced fer the gut stringing in the same manner as that used in the ordinary racquet. Where the frame joins at the neck of the racquet the metal is metal is brazed together and the prongs con- tinued and counter-sunk into the reg ualtion wooden handle.
 It is claimed that the new instru- ment of play overcomes the disad- vantage of warping and losing shape when re-strung, gives greater fleXibil- ity of stroke and additional force to the returns. Players who have used the metal framed racquet have found several points of novelty in the latest invention, and the real test of tourna- ment play is awaited with interest.

Sir Arthur might find it necessary to
further explain some of his ideas. Food

do not exist, but there seems to be pleas
ures of taste, and this distinction causes
some confusion. At another time he
says: 81 am convinced that If the etheric

three days, designed it would seem, to pre-
vent the shock that comes from the griev-
ing of those left behind.
Devils are very real to Sir Arthur.
Once humans, they are spirits who have
sunk to the lowest spheres, being unable
to overcome their materialistic tendencies.
"a devil,in the other world" he says,
els a low-down, crude, bad man who
passes sver from this world They do
there what they have done here. Then
there are mischievous spirits in the other
world, just as there are mischievous boys
in this world"
Sir Arthur's idea of Heaven Is singu-
larly alike in many respects to that Of
Emanuel Swedenborg, who claimed that
for thirteen years he enjoyed the priv
ilege Of conversing with the angels.
Gall the inhabitants of Heaven" says
Swedenborg, have their districts accord
ing to the four quarters into which,
west are those who are crowned in the
good of love-towards the east those who
have a clear perception of it, and towards
the west those who have an obscure per-
ception of it. Towards the south and
north dwell those who are crowned in the
wisdom thus derived-towards the south
those whose light of wisdom is clear, to-
wards the north those whose light of
wisdom is. obscure.
"The clothes in which the angels are
dressed, like other things connected with
them, correspond to their intelligence, and
as in intelligence one excels another, so
one has better clothes than another. The
most intelligent wear clothes that glow
as IL from flame, and some wear dresses
that shine as If from light; the less in
telligent have garments Of clear or opaque
white, not shiny, and the least intelligent
still wear clothes of different colors, but
the angels of the inmost, Heaven are
naked They wear different dresses at
different times. l inquired whence they
obtained them and they told me from the
Lord; that they received them as gifts,
and they sometimes are clothed without
knowing themselves how 1t has been done.

In the lower spheres one will have

are the more materialistic are your ways.
When you reach the more remote spheres

In further explanation of this Sir Conan
says:

Every earthly thing has its equivalent.

tobacco, but II al things are reproduced
Il would be q flaw II these were not re-

= Evidently Conan Doyle is in agreement
with Sir Oliver Lodge in the matter of
smoking In Heaven. We learn from mes
sages from Raymond Lodge that celestial
workmen succeeded in manufacturing
for newcomer into Heaven a "cigar"
out Of essences, ethers and cases.
The spirit world, according to Sir
Arthur, is not at great distances from us.
Only our frail and imperfect senses pre-
vent US from perceiving Heavens When
we pass out of this life we go into the
first sphere Of Sir Arthur's Heaven and
remain about forty years, obtaining
spiritual education from more advanced
inhabitants Of Heaven, preparing US for
a higher plane Of existence.
"The first plane to which all decent
people go. is called Summerland. There
life is much the same as it is on earth,
only it is set two or three octaves higher.
"After forty years in Summerland the
spirit passes on to still more wonderful
worlds. Life is eternal; there is
passing from sphere to sphere in infinite
progression.
"There are likewise spheres of suffer-
ing called Purgatory. This suffering is
all mental. A man may so live in this

maturity in the next world, while those
who have passed from life with an album
dance of years on their shoulders shuttle
off some Of the effects Of old age and be-
come strong and vigorous again. II,
Sir Arthur says:
"If a mother loses her child and she
dies twenty years later the mother will
find when she also arrives In the other
world that her little one has grown. In
other words, that though death cuts life
short on earth the etheric body continues
to grow in the other life. The rejuvenation
that sets in among the old is gradual. No
woman need worry that the beauty which
was hers when she was twenty-five Is
gone forever. 1t will return. Both
strength for man and beauty for woman
are awaiting them on the other side. Nor
is any deformity or bodily weakness
there, for all is normal and at its best.
"The next world Is unbelievably happy.
Similar interests draw people together, 90
that one never meets disagreeable people
or comes upon any unwanted incident.
Marriages exist in Heaven, but the
union is highly spiritual. There is no
physical side to love and no childbirth,
though there Is q close union between
those married people who really loved
each other, and generally there Is deep
sympathetic friendship and comradeship
between the sexes.
Every man or woman finds her true
mate sooner or later. II Is world Of
The Washington times., 1922-07-02

THE readers Of these pages will re-
call a recent article on the surpris-.
ing assertion of Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle, the distinguished creator of "Sher-
lock Holiness" who insists that he has evil
dences Of life in the world beyond the
grave.
Conan Doyle has set forth in lectures
and in a book the reasons why he feels
convinced that he has received positive
evidence that there is continuation of
existence after death. Sir Arthur has
given many proofs" that he has received
communications from spirits-and these
proofs" have been explained as very
simple tricks which any skilled magician
as fraudulent materialistic medium could
lastly perform.
IS In the course Of Sir Conan Doyle's
Communications with some two dozen
yghosts, he asserts that he has received
some very interesting and very definite
details, telling just what goes on in the
world inhabited by the departed. A good
deal of this information as 70 life in
Heaven comes from the supposed spook
of the authors own son, who was killed
in the late war. So sure is Mr.. Doyle of
the correctness of these spirit communi-
cations that he declares:
'T have more knowledge Of what Is to
become of me after death than would
have were to be dropped into the mid
die of Asia or Africa, for all my knowl-
edge of the wildness Of the country and
the habits of the savage tribes that in
habit those regions"
The odds and ends of information
which he has collected in regard to
Heaven. have come not only from his
dead son, but also from angels and devils
snd spiritualistic mediums who are In
touch with the shades Of the departed.
Unlike the Heaven commonly pictured by
ecclesiastical dignitaries or religious
painters, Mr.. Doyle asserts that Paradise
Is very similar to our own life here on
earth.
After death families are reunited he
has been told. Men carry on the same
occupations they do on this earth. There
Is q purgatory, but no hell, he has been
informed.
Sir Conan Doyle's picture Of Heaven,
as p!eced together from the scraps of in
formation supplied him by his spectral
VISITORS Is not altogether an inspiring or
uplifting one. 1t is, however, in many
respects very similar to the visions of
Heaven that Emanuel Swedenborg gave
to the world long before Sir arthur was
born.
Death has no fears for Sir Arthur, who
Is confirmed in his belief that instead of
. painful It is an extremely pleasant
process.
"There is a pleasant languor," he says.
I'VE all have a body called the etheric
body, which is the exact duplicate of the
living body. st. Paul called it the spirit
ual body! At the moment of death the
etheric body disengages itself from the
material body and goes forth into the
,ther world just as you live. Every hair
of the head, every pore Of the skin Is re-
produced in this etheric body down to the
finest detail, but is composed Of finer
matter.
