Chumfo, the Super-sense 



knowledge not of matter, but of minds or spirits 

 like his own; when a mother knows, for example, 

 the mental state of a son who is far away, and 

 when no material vibrations of any known medium 

 can pass between them, then all sixth-sense theo- 

 ries, which must rest on the impinging of waves 

 upon nerve centers, no longer satisfy or explain. 

 We are in the more shadowy region of thought 

 transference or impulse transference, and it is in 

 this silent, unexplored region that, as I now be- 

 lieve, a large part of animal communication goes 

 on continually. 



That belief will grow more clear, and perhaps 

 more reasonable, if you follow this unblazed trail 

 a little farther.
