Doyle WILL TEACH
j. S. SP|R|TUAL|SM
Sir Arthur Says It Will Revivify
Religion and Destroy
Materialism
HERE FOR LECTURE TOUR

New York. April 1O.-witbin fifty
years spiritualism, backed by the over
whelming force that Is now mobilizing
behind the psychic movement. will
sweep the world and take the place Of
he religion Of todny--religion whic
has long been decaying and is becoming
n mere formality.
This in substance is the message
brought to these shores by Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle. the distinguished Eng
lish novelist. who arrived from Liver
Baltic, to preach the doctrine Of
spiritualism In n series of fifteen lee
lures that will carry him as far west
as Chicago: There is no money in the
pilgrimage. 1t is n labor of love and
the proceeds Of his tour will be used in
furthcrancc of what he called the
cause.
Children Fearless OF Death
To get away from the dense smoke
of tlashlight powder he picked out n
windy doorway near the promenade
deck. and there answered questions con-
corning his big theme. lie had spoken
hardly dozen words when'thrcc robust
children rompcd by him from the star
board side of the companion way to
rort shouting Come daddy. quickly.
There is the Statue Of Liberty"
~ "Yes' :. y yss:' he ,, answered: s., ~ have have
with his eyes hc remarked: There 60
my children--spiritualist all of them.
! Happy children who have no fear OF
death"
In response to question as to his
proof that communication with the deal
was possible. he replied with conviction
that he knew il was 50 because he had
talked with the dead himself
~ have talked with more than twenty
Of my dead" he said. Through a
medium. Of course. because 1t is nee
cSSary to have delicate materializn-
tion as means Of communication. !
Kingsley. who died Of pneumonia in
November. 1918. after his return from
the front.
Happier There Than Here -
1T is Il delightful and comforting
thing to know positively that we live
after death and that we know whittier
We are going. There is little difference
between this life and the life beyond.
We have found that II is difficult to
convince those who have passed on
that they are dead. They arc happier
after death than we are here, and
there Is no pain
1T is the one great final antidote to
materialism which is the cause sof
most of our recent world troubles. II
we can make this good-and the case
has only to he clearly stated to be
provcd-then surely America has good
cause to be proud that this great re-
statement of the fundamentals of re-
| ligion should have come upon her soil.
1t has been degraded by some who
believe in 1t. and derided by all who did
not. but the time has come to recog-
nize the vital good that is in 1t. and
to free it from sordid influences
