The credit for modern industrial progress cannot be laid at the door of machines or methods, for these are but the tools with which progress has been wrought. Be- hind them stands the moving force, the force of man.

For it is human resourcefulness, ingenuity and experience that have perfected and successfully operated methods and machines.

Therefore, man-building is the first duty and the greatest achievement of the far-reaching organization known to the world as-Westinghouse.

This is your best guarantee that when you buy any prod- uct bearing the name of Westinghouse, you can rely upon it as possessing the efficiency, durability and service that are found in the products of remarkable rnen.

HALLUCINATION CURED.

Members listened on August 24 to some interesting points raised by Dr. E Prideaux in a paper des cribed as Al Psychologist's attitude towards telepathy. It was not yet realised, said the lecturer, that most of the phenomena which in the past had been investigate¶ by the Society Psychical Research could be explained in the light of modern psychological know- ledge. Of the various phenomena, none had bad more attention devoted to it than telepathy. The conflict of opinion to-day on the matter justified them in maintaining an attitude of scepticism. The impartiality that every scientific research_demanded Association of ideas enabled us to was not obtainable in psychical re- | understand many cases of telepathic research, which was interwoven with hallucinations and phenomena which superstition, religious beliefs, and at first sight presented some dificulty, desire for survival after death, -

She told her other son of the occurrence. Now if by chance her youngest son had been killed in France that night, said Dr. Prideaux this would have been regarded as evidence for telepathy and clairvoy- ance. He was killed, but, not until two years later.. When all this was explained to the patient he saw no more of the ghost.

THE SPILT SALT SUPERSTITION. Psychology had shown us that the influences of our early childhood were of paramount importance in determining our conduct in later life, and it was only with difficulty we adapted ourselves to the views laid down by science, intellect, and reason.
