Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who is com

legations concerning life after death, has
been investigating apirituausm for more
than thirty years, Starting as a con
WINGED unbeliever. More. and more he
has been won over to complete faith in
communications from The spirit world
and in numerous articles he has Set
down the story d his progress from
scepticisrn to belief. Sir Arthur is known
everywhere and to everybody as the
creator Of Sherlock Holmes, whose uame
has become synonymous with detective
stories. He has also written historical
romances and . popular history of the
World war. Although famed as a nov
elist, historian, investigator of spiritual
ism, traveller in the Arctic. and patron
of the prize ring, few are aware that n

arises how a minister SO much int

been led thus to inperil it. From his

failure to envisage fully what he was

RECALLING QUE rRooPs-

For long time the feeling has exist
ed that the American troops on the
Rhine ought to be brought home. For
that reason the issuance of orders t.
that effect will be learned with satisfac-
tion.
There was a time when it was be-
lleved that the removal Of the American
army would have been subject to the in
depreciation that the United States was
not in sympathy with the efforts Of the
allies that it was inclined to favor Ger
many and was recalling its forces fo1
that reason. While there would have
been no ground for such it has beer
avoided by the holding of the troops
there until agreements, have been reach
ed on all matters wherein our part Of
the army of occupation might have q
bearing.
We have kept our army on the Rhine
with the understanding that the expense
would be paid by Germany, the same a.
similar expenses of other nations whose
troops are there. Already a good sized
bill has been created. We have not beer
paid and we are not pressing for imme
diate payment, but it is evident, ever
! though particular efforts are made t.

like to continue their duty there an,
that Germany would welcome such as

Through the passing of time we hav

the demand for the recall Of our contin
