" EXISTENCE OF 60D DEFENDEDBY LODGE Scientist - Philosopher Also| Discourses on Future Life Before Savants. | By the Associated Press. GLASGOW, Scotland, September 10.— The existence of God and of a future | life was fervently preached yesterday | by Sir Oliver Lodge to members of the | British Association for the Advance- ment of Science. With his own beard a snowy white and the maos distinguished congregation sc: venerable in appearance, Sir Oliv the humility of his belief, declared that | all mankind are yet children in a nursery. The scientist philosopher towered over his auditors in Wellington Church with | his striking head outlined against the Sombre woodwork of the pulpit. Pound- ing his fist on the huge golden and black book lying on the rostrum, he | declared, “science, with all its great| work, has not eliminated the accumu- | lated witness of the ag “The immensity of possible discovery | contrasts i it into words,’ he said. that rea- | son never throw away hastily any old | faith or traditions because of some| dogma of science, do not run foul of | conventions merelv because you do not | see the good of them. | Amazed at Creation. | “The problems do not get easier as| the world grows older. The extraor-| dinary multiplicity of plants and ani- | mals is astounding. What an imagina- tion the creator must have had! Our | growth of knowledge of the planetary | system shows that everything is gov- erned by one system of law. Order permeates all space, which leads us to postulate the existence of some great being who controls all.” | Even space, according to Sir Oliver, | is “full of the animation of life and matter.” He then turned his thought to that subject to which he has devoted his later years, and which has, in his strong belief, consolea him for the | tragic death of his son. | “Real existence is a much wider | thing than terrestrial existence,” he said. “We are mistaken in believing that life can exist only for material bodies. It ean exist, perhaps better, with immaterial things. Our senses teil us only about matter, and that is why matter only has loomed so large in our minds. Life can exist in the interspaces as well as cn the planets. Declares Dead Are Not Dead. “There are many persons who for: merly lived on this planet and who still hover close to us. They retain many of the attributes that they once had here. The dead are not dead, but alive. They have bodies. but not of matter; what I may call spiritual bodies. They are clothed, but not with material clothing.” It was at this point that the aged speaker beamed benignly down on the bearded scientists as upon children and told them that the human race still is in its infancy, and that the end of the world is incredibly far distant. Held Mistakes of Infancy. “Mankind came on to the earth very | recently,” he said, “so its corporate blunders are the mistakes of infancy. Our squabbles are like those of chil- dren in a nursery. but they are deadly, and I hope we wiil have no more of :lhem They tend to destroy civiliza- on. “Life in its present infancy is not very agreeable to the mass of people, but human nature is higher than its circumstances. In many respects, how- ever, we still are savages. To higher beings we must seem primitive, indeed.” Ruhr District Progress. ‘The coal mines of the Ruhr district of Germany are now almost entirely worked by the most modern machinery. It is said that less than 15 per cent of the product is mined by hand at the present time. Soon the district will be supplied with gas produced at the mines and piped to the consumer. #5000 X TEACUP GOOD POSITIONS AND FINE INCOMES Tearooms, Restaurants, Cafeterias, Motor Inns. Candy.
