RECONSIDERATION OF EVENTS
OF THE YEAR 1922
Introduction.
AS is well known, the Pathfinder
has always been skeptical ABOUT tne
ability of so-called seers, astroio-
gists and occulists to predict what is
10 occur in the future. But as II
wishes to be fair to all it has invited
any who believe they possess pro-
phtic powers to record their pro-
phcies in order that they may De

one of our longtime and highly re-
spected subscribers, Mr.. Franklin
Adams, of Los Angeles, has SUBMIT
ed to us a definite prophecy Tor the
coming year, and we present 1t TO the
public now, for what it may be worth
Mr.. Adams is not professional
"seer"-far from it; he is an earn
est scholar who for many years mas
made a deep study of forcasting, IN
connection with psychology and as
sociated sciences. He has developed
a complicated system by which he is
able as he says, to graphlcaiiy plot
and project the events of the past
in such a way that they will Indicate
the probable course of events LOT
some time ahead. We would place
no faith in such a proposition were
it not for the fact that some OF MT.
Adams predictions have been ful-
filled with such remarkable accur-
acy. We give his forecast for 1922
lust as he prepared it. We urge our
readers to watch the events of the
new year as they unfold and see Tor
themselves how closely they cor
respond to the prophecy.-Editors.
During 1922 the influence of the
planets and other heavenly bodies,
such as it is, will be unfayorable to
material interests. The earth is still
under the spell of a series of alb
normal disturbing agencies. Gil
matte and crop conditions will con-
De some improvement, as the peak
of the cycle is now past. Notwith-
standing oil the supposed signs,
this will go on record as an open,
mild winter. But the spring will be
late and wet. The moon will pass
close to the planet Jupiter Jan. Is
and close to Mars Jan. 81. These
conjunctions will tend to produce
severe storms, attended with vol
canic disturbances, earthquakes and
auroral displays. Jan. 20 Fatty
Arbuckle will be legally acquitted,
though morally convicted.
February will be made historic by
the establishment of the Irish Free
State on a firm foundation, with
Arthur Griffith at the head. An
Irish flag consisting of green and
orange combined will eventually be
but for some time Ulster
will rfuse to cooperate with South
day, will be celebrated as never be-
fore. On that night the graf planets
Jupiter and Saturn, representing
England and Ireland, will shine so
brilliantly and so close together in
the sky as to form an suspicious and
spectacle. March % the
sun will be eclipsed, thus symbolic
ing the obsuration of the world peace
But the setback will be
only tmporary, and the lengthening
days will see the work of peace and
goodwill spreading everywhere in
spite OF obscurantist and obstructive
Though the equinoctian periods
are always storm periods, there will
be no marked equinotial storm In
this March. Easter will fall on
April 16, which is unusually late. Re-
tail spring trade will be slow. Efforts
to make women adopt long skirts
and bigger hats will fail; the styles
will change in favor of blue in place
of brown as the popular color, while
white for spring and summer will
gain unexpected favor.
ongress will pass many important
new laws during the spring. In April
the new treaty will be ratified, by a
vote of 81 to Is party lines being
much broken. In May the tariff bill
will become a law, but only after
much pickering and by close mari
gin.
Beginning with May there will be
a marked Improvement in the in
dustrial field. The Ford Co. will
make further reductions, and the
Chevrolet will be put back to S490,
the pre-war price. These cuts will
be typical of those in manufactured
articles all along the line. Agricul-
tural implements will be lower. Spe-
cial effort will be made to bring
about general strikes, but they will
not receive the support of public |
opinion and will fail.
Wages will tend steadily down
ward by easy stages. A disastrous
flood will occur in May. Early In
June one of our leading men will |
die, leaving distinct gap for the
time-being, but his place will be fill

more useful. June our govern
ment will recognize Mexico Coal

point for several years. Early in
June the planet Mars will be very
bright; war will seem to threaten.
