LIFE AFTER DEATH.
Sir Oliver Lodge’s Firm Belief. LONDON, March 10. What might be his last talk on earth was given to-day by Sir Oliver Lodge, the famous physicist. It was a radio broadcast on “Do We Survive?” “ This may possibly prove to be my last talk to you. If it may happen that mv work down here is done, or nearly done, let me take an affectionate farew e 11. Good-bye,” said Sir Oliver, in a low voice, charged with emotion, as he concluded the broadcast. He said he had been convinced of survival after death since 1889. “I then had a communication from deceased members of my family, which unmistakably showed that they were just as living and active as ever” He added that the veil between the two worlds was wearing thin. It was possible, given the right conditions, to communicate with those “we call dead.” “ They do not think of themselves as dead but, as now, fully alive, yet free of the clogging body.” All evidence obtained over a period of fifty years showed, full}' and unmistakably, he said, that the spiritual world was a great reality.
