to head it again.

something over an hour. But his &c
tual consultation with the king was
understood to have occupied only
about fifteen minutes. This took place

NITCHCRAFT

Pennsylvania recent witch trials have resulted
in three being sent to prison for the murder of
another witch" who sought to prevent the three from
getting lock of his hair, fearing they would thus be
able to beWtch him. The leader of the three had told
his companions the man who was slain had beWitched
them.
1t is difficult to believe that such beliefs really
exist in this enlightened age of free education, books
radio and countless other advantages.
Investigation of the crime and the testimony Of
living in this particular section of the Keystone
State who believe in wtchcraft and practice the most
ridiculous things in furthering their beliefs and
playing upon the credulity of others
In all probability the people of this Pennsylvania
section not alone in their superstltlous beliefs
Among the ignorant there IS great deal of respect for
charms spells. incantations and 'poW-WoWs as the
term was used in the Pennsylvania trials
While it may not take the emphatic form disclosed
in Pennsylvania, many educated persons also are given
to superstition, fact that is knowledge to all
of US. Thirteen at table will throw perfectly nor
NAL and educated hostess into conniptOn fits. Busl-
reputed for their good sense and business
acumen, will walk around ladder rather than under
it. And for small boys (and maybe glrls) super
sttions are rife among them.
Such practices are harmless Of course and are not
to be considered in the serious vein the witch
craft of Pennsylvania. They merely indicate that
there is healthy inheritance in all of US from our an
cesors, which does not prevent Us from being normal
men and women.
It's all bosh but just the same don't want any
black cats crossing our path.
