Physical eyes also declared to have seen his spiritual body, and the every action and move of this spiritual presence was explained for the bene- fit of those who felt Dr. Peebles was present but whose vision did not ma- terialize his spiritual body. No attempt was made to set the stage fe the materialization of Dr, Peebles, Lights burned brightly and entrance was free to those who de- sired to look on. In an alcove where a small plat- form was wlsed for speakers was a smal) table for especially invited guests and at this table was a rose- decked vacant chalr set as for a guest in the flesh. Dinner was served in the usual munner and at its conclusion Dr, Bo- gart, calling upon Dr. Peebles by addressing the chair of roses, an- nounced Dr. Peebles would speak through his mediumship and that of Herman Kuehn, the “spirit guide, friend and companion of Dr. Peebles in physical life and in Astraland.” “T lived for almost 100 years in the flesh and [ still, ve in the spirit,"’ were the words attributed to Dr. Peebles. ‘I promised I would be among you and I am here, I want you to know I will be ever near you and do ull in my power to advise you anc bring you to a better under- standing of the things the world will come to know. “Do not be misled, particularly by the wave of psychism that is sweep- ing the world, Keep your feet always on the earth.

LOS ANGELES, Cal,, March 24 (Associated Press).—Dr. Guy Bogart, head of the Longer Life League, at the banuct held to celebrate the cen tennial of Dr, Peebles, read a message he stated he had recelved from Dr. Peebles since the latter's 4 th, through the late Herman Kuehn, publisher, of Chicago. “A word to Guy (Dr. Bogart) and the Longer Life League friends,’’ the message said, “I knew in my inner- most vision that I would celebrate my centennial beyond the gates—but that [ would be with the Longer Life League ‘In the spirit’ as well, It made little difference to me on which side of the gute I made the celebra tion, Guy recalls that T told him a couple of years ago that I was anxious to explore the moon and ge journeying among the stars.
