190 HAS SCIENCE DISCOVERED GOD? 



through space like the electrical dots and dashes which 

 the wireless telegraph stations send through space. 

 Each atom and molecule in the blazing sun Is a busy 

 radio station sending messages in all directions. These 

 countless dots and dashes tell us that countless tiny 

 electrical clappers are set in motion by the atoms and 

 molecules of the radiating source. 



Now what do I mean by that? Consider what you 

 are doing when you are ringing a telephone bell. You 

 transmit a rapid succession of electrical pulses along 

 the telephone wire, that is to say, a rapid succession 

 of Impulsive electronic motions. The moving elec- 

 trons are the electrical clappers. Each moving elec- 

 tronic swarm gives a jerk at the clapper of the tele- 

 phone bell and makes it strike, the bell responding 

 with a ring. The action of the electrical clappers Is 

 thus transformed Into the action of a material clapper. 

 The dots and dashes coming from busy atoms and 

 molecules of the sun are a rapid succession of electrical 

 pulses. They, like the electrical pulses which ring the 

 telephone bell, strike the material bodies on earth and 

 communicate to their atoms and molecules the energy 

 of their life. Like the bell on the church spire of my 

 native village, or like the melodious strings of Krels- 

 ler's violin, these terrestrial aggregations of atoms and 

 molecules respond and radiate vibrations which are In 

 harmony with their structure. They are the receiving 

 Instruments for the messages transmitted by the lumi- 

 nous bodies. 



In telegraphy we have a code, that Is a certain num- 

 ber of combinations of dots and dashes, each combi- 

 nation standing for a definite word or letter, and the 

 receiving instrument responds equally well to each
