Fairy Tales
 All of which sounds like fairy tale stuff sure enough to ordinary indi- viduals, but when those pictures were actually flashed on the screen, the audience gasped. Everybody looked for some sign of faking. But apparently there was no gainsaying that if ever human eyes looked upon the real thing, they were doing so at that moment. At least everybody had to admit those fairies lid look so un- cannily real they made one wonder whether or not people of this earth actually are smart and know much or not, Everybody just wondered, blinked, thought hard and felt funny. The photographs were beautiful.
 The pictures are those reproduced by A. Conan Doyle in an article he wrote for an Englieh magazine, and which will shortly appear in one of his new books. They were made by two children. One of the children told her mother she always had played with fairies-played with them in the garden every day. The mother who herself could not see them, told her little girl that if it were true, she and her little cousin them with her fathers kodak. The children did, and two pictures were the result.
 What They Look Like
 In the first, four fairies are shown in dance. all dressed in diaphonous costumes. Their little wings are quite real, and one of them is blow ing trumpet, while another is poised on mushroom. A flying fairy is shown in another, perched on rope line, and hunchbacked gnome in another. Conan Doyle and scien- lists later obtained for the children some sensitive plates which the

maker marked in some secret way so that he might later identify whether they had been tempered with or changed. However, when the chill dren took four more pictures, they ob tained still better results. There were the strange little winged persons that surely nobody IS boing around getting pictures of every day. Crown ups were never able to get any pie lures of these fairies nor see them.
 Mrs Powell does not think fairies at all queer. She said they are not of very high order of intelligence, but are advancing; that they live in all parts of the world, particularly in woodlands or near streams. Peoples of all ages have secn fairies and gnomes and talked oi them, she said, but the materialist mind. without seeing, of course, branded them false.
 Like many little creatures, they change color with thetr surroundings so that they are very lard to see. she set forth. Then, not everybody Is blessed with the sight, though there have been some growpups who have seen fairies.

God is spirit; therefore, other spirits exist"
 Some of the most prominent people of Birmingham were present at the lecture. Mrs. Powell took up the subjects of auras and explained these at length. Her last lecture will be given tonight at S:15 at Cable. hall. She will talk about the invisible world and "the coming civilization"
