SERVICES IN ENGLAND

PILGRIMAGES TO GRAVES.

(WITEB Hill ASSOCIATION.—COMMHT.)

(MIYIUMAN • XIW ZIAMm (MILS ASS#OMI'I»N.) LONDON, 25th April.

An Anzac Day service was held on Sunday on' Plymouth Hoe. A service was held also at Walton, where 30,000 wounded New Zealanders were nursed. The banner which the town of Walton, New Zealand, presented, bearing the names of the fallen, was carried, at the head of the procession, Tvhich deposited flowers on the Anzacs' graves. Other places also arranged Anzac services and pilgrimages to graves to-day.

At the Anzac anniversary service heJd by the Scientist Church in the Esperanto Hall, Mr. John Page gave an address before a crowded attendance upon the subject of "Where the Millions that are Dead now Dwell." He declared that it was urtthinkable that the great life force that had animated humanity during the countless centuries of time, should be the only thing in the universe that could not be accounted for. Mattel- was indestructable, and that mind controlled matter was no longer a speculative philosophy, but a psychological fact. There was no death, in the universe of God, only change and progress. Was it reasonable to suppose that the young lives passed over in the great world war could be blotted out for ever? The guns of the enemy could not stop them, they had only "Gone West," and could and did return when the way was opened for them. Tho psychic law of the continuity o£ life was the foundation of all religions. Research into the future existence of man after this life was a necessity. New truth must be acceptable from whatever source it was available.
