ANIMALS POSSESS
SOULS, IS VERDICT
13 of 40 ImmortaIs" of
French Academy Reach De-
ciSi0n After Debate.
By the Associated Press.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL
PARIS, January Animals have
souls, If the memory of passing events
and the vision of the future can be
interpreted as proving the possession
reached by the French Academy at
session Thursday, which was at
tended by 13 of the $40 immortals."
Marshais Joffre and Foch, both of
whom are members of the Academy,
participated in the discussion. The
allied leaders in the war, which sepa-
rated so many human souls from
their bodies, were divided in their
opinion in some respects, but accept
ed the principle that animals have
souls.
Starts by Revision.
1t all came about in this way: The
Academy, which is undertaking a re-
vision of the French dictionary, took
up the word "memoire,' meaning
memory. After several minutes had
passed in deep thought, Louis Bar
thou, minister Of justice, spoke up.
Human beings alone keep the
memory Of passing events he is
quoted as saying, thus the word
alone"
Then the deep voice of Marshal Jof-
fire. doomed out: II had dog called
Bobby during the early days of the
war. He was almost human. He died
in the swamps Of La Pompelle in 1917
of influenza. He always knew several
hours in advance when l gave the or
der to attack. Is that memory or in
telligence? Is that soul or instinct"
None of the Is immortals answered.
Foch Gives Views.
Marshal Foch spoke in a lighter vein
than Joffre, who was deeply in ear
nest.
"Just before the battle at scissors
and Chateau Thierry in July, 1915"
said Foch, zone of my captains insist
ed upon keeping parrot in the vicin-
ity of headquarters.
We sure are going to give them

asked my aide to muZZle his eloquent
but indiscreet pet. But just as my
order was given, at o'clock in the
morning, that bird exulted There we
co. Perhaps he had a soul, but I am
inclined to think he was just mean.
clever bird"
Vote s to 5.
Henri Robert, noted criminal law
yer, who has saved many necks from
the guillotine, remarked: II have met
many soulless men, but never have
appeared in behalf of soulless animals;
thus must abstain from taking sides
in the controversy"
Robert Regnier, permanent secre-
tary of the Academy, then called for
vote on the question: do animals
have memory and, incidentally, souls?"
The 13 immortals, voting to 5, de-
cided affirmatively.
