“GREAT ADVENTURE.”
SCIENTIST'S VIEW OF DEATH. By Cable—Pre9s Association—Copyi-lght. Australian amt N.Z. Cabla Arnociation. LONDON, .March 19. Sir Oliver Lodge, in an address upon “Death” at Christchurch, Greyfriurs, urged the people to dismiss the idea of death as gloomy; it was really a great adventure. “Wo do not fear, to emigrate, but look forward to new conditions with interest,'’ lie said. “So should we look forward lo death. Our souls are now enclosed in body matter, which is a nuisance to get rid of. There are no dead in the churchyards. I have never seen my son Haymond’s grave in France. He asked me not to. j know there is no extinction, because- 1 frequently talk with people who have gone. Mailer looms too big in our attitude. We should greet The unseen with a cheer.” ,
