Instrument Measures
Human Electrical
Energy
During his vacation last sum
mer, Mr. Donald A. Dalberg of
Seward attended the Interna
tional Convention of the Rosi
crucians, at San Jose, California.
While there he witnessed a series
of experiments made by Mr.
Lester L. Libby, an electrical
engineer who holds several pat
ents in the field of electronics,
and who is Technical Director
of the Rosicrucian Science Mu
seum at San Jose.
The experiments were made
with a specially designed metal
lic enclosure which has been
developed that permits the ac
tual measurement of energy ex
erted by the human mind. Super
sensitive instruments measure
the electrical potential built up
in the human system as a result
of nerve energy. The electrical
potential is effected by thoughts
and emotions and conveys, to
delicate instruments, the effect
of breathing and all the ordinary
actions of the body. Movement
of any kind causes the instru
ment needle to fluctuate ac
cordingly, and draw a pattern
on a paper graph. (The so-called
lie detector works on the same
theory.)
Mr. Libby explained to Mr.
Dalberg that this apparatus em
ploys principles well known in
physics, but in a new combina
tion. Previously, much of the
measurement of human electri
city was done without the aid
of a copper wire cage. In these
cases, the sensitive measuring
instruments picked up electrical
impulses from other objects or
currents in the immediate vi
cinity, and thereby gave a less
accurate reading. It is theoreti
cally possible, said Libby, that
these electrical emanations from
the human body act as carrying
agents for specific thought pat
terns and can be responsible
for the much-discussed phenom
enon of thought transference. It
is also possible that these same
emanations can stimulate acti
vity in living matter outside
the human body.
It was demonstrated at these
sessions, that deep breathing, in
conjunction with directed pat
terns of thought, brings about

increased activity in body cells
as well as increased warmth.
During deep breathing, the volt
age from the hand varied from
twenty-five to one hundred fifty
millivolts, according to one dem
onstration.
Inasmuch as thoughts arise out
of internal or external stimuli
to the nervous system, it is con
ceivable that the subtle waves
leaving a human brain do reach
another brain and there stimu
late a sensitive nervous center
with a corresponding wave
which arises as a thought in ttie
mind of the receiver.
The topic of mind power has
been subjected to more scientific
analysis in the last ten years
than in the previous ten centur
ies. With full scale experiments
being carried on in colleges and
universities all over the country,
much has been demonstrated to
bear out the contention that
mind can exert a real influence
over matter.
The field is relatively un
touched. although the Rosicru
cians have pioneered in develop
ing man's mental capacities for
centuries. It is a matter of policy
for members of the Rosicrucian
Order, a non-sectarian fraternity,
to keep, not just abreast of, but
a little in advance of all general
scientific developments. Benja
min Franklin, whose original
book on electricity and magne
tism introduced many of the
common electrical terms in use
today, was a Rosicrucian.
Junior Women Meet
Seward Junior Women’s Club
met at the home of Mrs. John
Coleman Tuesday night for the
first meeting of 1953. Several
reports from special committees
were given, including the Boy
Scout fund drive and the Christ
mas Seal campaign. The cedar
chest project has been indefinite
ly postponed.
Hostesses were Mrs. Coleman
and Mrs. Maude Johnson, who
served refreshments to 18 mem
bers.

Vaughn Attends Meet
Of Willys Dealers
F. W. Vaughn of the Seaport
Auto Supply Co. has returned
from a trip Outside. Mr. Vaughn
flew to Toledo for a Nationwide
meeting of Willys dealers. The
dealers had an opportunity to
see the Willys factory and to
learn of the company’s plans
for this, the Golden Jubilee year
of the Willys Overland Com
pany, founded in 1903.
According to the Toledo Blade
of December 10, more than two
thousand of the new 4-door Wil
lys Lark models were driven
away from the factory on that
date. The Seaport Auto Supply
car was driven to Seattle for
boat shipment and arrived on
the Coastal Rambler this week.
While in Seattle, Mr. Vaughn
purchased roboring and cylinder
honing equipment, valve refac
ing equipment and electrical
testing equipment for the recent
ly opened Seaport Auto Supply
garage here. The garage equip
ment arrived on the Baranof.
