Medbury Says— By John P. Medbury. A LOS ANGELES man claims he can photograph the thoughts in a human be ing’s mind. It's getting so that a person doesn’t have a bit of pri vacy any more. You’re afraid to think anything bad about the people next door for fear some guy will come along and take a picture of it. You could photograph some minds and get arrested for taking obscene pictures. But of course there are a lot of minds that you could take snap shots of all days and get nothin but blank negatives. It won’t be long before a mar. will be afraid to think. With spiritualists and cameras prying into our minds, it’s no wonder that some men are scared to take their hata off. There’s no doubt about this Los Angeles man being correct. If we can take pictures through steel we ought to be able to pho nograph through bone. i This fellow photographed the thoughts of a married woman the other day. He got a picture of her mind and her husband’s, all in one. The husband was able to think, but he didn’t dare. For years when a woman has had a phcure taken she’s always put rouge and powder on,* now she’ll even have to make up her mind. One dame was having a photo- taken of her thoughts and Changed her mind right in the middle of the picture. When the photographer devel oped the plate it showed a pic-* ture of her wondering how her hair looked and where her hus band was. If he could have snap-shotted her husband he'd have got a pic ture of him wondering if his breath smelled of gin and if his Wife were home. #i certainly going too far when a man’s thonghs are open to the public. It’s getting so that we can’t oven have a private opinion. We’ve got to think nice things of our neighbor for fear he’ll photograph our mind and find out What we really think of him/ You might be standing on the corner thinking of what you'd like to do to your mother-in-law and have a cop step up and ar rest you. •With all these new experiments going on the only-people who are safe are those whose minds are a blank.
