my theory is that they come from
intelligences far superior to our own,
but I predict that within short
period. perhaps as little as two
years, communication win be def

scientists throughout the world have
convinced many of them that forces
outside our world, perhaps outside
our planetary system are sending
out messages which some time will
be ineligible to us. This was proved
conclusively, I believe, by facts
gathered when Mars approached the
earth last year.

panied by Wallace Hatch, chairman

rector of the Instructive Visiting
Nurse Society, and Walter S. IF.
ford, director of the Associated
Charities.
Statistics presented to General
Lord, based on a survey of school
medical forces in several American
cities, showed that Washington has
thirteen school doctors, as against
an average of thirteen; ten nurses,
as compared to an average of fifty
two, and twelve dentists, while ten
other cities show an average of
