TRuTH ABOUT THE TURKS.

TRUTH ABOUT THE TURKS.
Premier Lloyd George seems to have strengthened
his position by his recent speech at Manchester
in defense of his Near East policy. He also seems
to have clarified the whole situation far as Euro
pean and American opinions are concerned And he
did it by telling the Diunt truth about the Turks
1t was all diplomatic" for the head OF
the British government announce, while negota-
lions the Turks pending, that those Turks
murdered 600 Armenians and 100000 Greeks
in cold blood the armistce, and that if they
had been allowed to the straits with the blood
lust still in their hearts they would have acted in
Consantinople they did in Smyrna, and then car
red flame and massacre into the Balkans. But it
the plain truth
Neither it courteous to long-coddled race
of emi-barbarians to designate the Turk a mere
Fighting animal" but that was also the truth Ana
since truth is mighty and must prevail, Mustapha
Renal and his killers sulen but subdued, and
the diplomatic lines strengthening behind Lloyd
George and the British themselves seem more dis
posed uphold him they 1valize what his bold
action saved Europe from.
BY threatening war he seems to prevented
war of a peculiarly horrible and costly sort, with I'M
told possibilities peril continent still shaky
FROM the conflict. The Turk is to be given as
little possible and though that little is more than
he deserves, the powers may have courage in the
next crisis to throw him at of Europe for good.
THE ETHER BODY.
Reminiscent OF the times of Calico of the burn
ing of the Alexandrian library and other famous
refuSaS OF knowledge Is the ACTION vi the
Valley Medical Association, whose convention ordered
stricken the records the address of one OF its
members the subject of "The Pineal Gland and
the Condition of the Ego in Sleep
Dr. W. Stuart Leech Of Roseau Mimi, gave voice
to the theory that there two distinct bodies in
every human being, the physical body known to
ALL the other a snadowy entity which he calls the
Either Body and which during sleep sometimes leaves
the physical body, journeys affair." has experiences OF
it's own and rejoins physical body awakening
This theory holds, naturally accounts for certain
dreams and nocturnal experiences otherwise left to
unexplained mystery.
The doctors heard this theory with disfavor. All
right. Every man, medical not, has a right to
dsbelieve any strange theory he wants to disbelieve
But all theories strange. They have to be
heard sometime. Why act II afraid OF the truth
The Etheric Body theory is however, by no means
new Hudson, in his Law of Phychic Phenomena,
published many years ago dealt with it. Theosophists
of whom there good many in America, not only
take the eheric body for granted but assume amenta
body and spiritual body and other parts or man
twofold but sevenfod.
Whether a theory be old, whether it be
true false, whether it be important or unimportan
is the main point. it is whether people are open
minded and willing to listen to new stuff or not
PROHIBITION REPRISALS
A curious thing is the threat of French reprisals
against United States for the closing of the Amer
lean market against French wines. Many French
newspapers are suggesting that France get by
prohibiting the importation of American products
paper seriously the first reprsal measure
La boycott of American wheat.
1t is natural that the French should feel the
loss of SO great a market for one their principal
products, but surely they are in strange state OF
mind about it. There thought, in our dry
legislation of njuring France and there has been nc
discrimination against France. If we barred French
wines while admitting Italian wines or German beer
or English whiskey France might have Legitimate
grievance.
AS for barring American wheat, America could
stand that if France could. Wheat is world com
modify, and the world takes surplus. The French
have to buy wheat somewhere, and if they don't buy
direct they will buy it from other country that
gets it here.
