The Editor „Sunday Post".
Sir!
I was very interested in the article
„Round Reykjavik’s Bookshops1' in your
paper I. — 1. of Sept. 1th. 1940. May I say
that more articles like this would, in my
opinion, be very welcome. It would be ex-
pressing it mildly to say that I was
astounded, but at the same time pleased,
when I read „Physic News", „Light“ and
further references to my religion. I under-
stood that the main belief here was Lut-
heran," and had no idea that Spiritualism
had a footing, much less a foundation.
Could you put me in touch with either the
writer of the article (if a Spiritualist), or
the Secretary of the organisation (if it has
reached such limits)? My main object is to
keep in touch with my religion even
though away from home, and I feel that
once I could obtain an introduction to
some responsible official my task would be
well started.
At the same time I think there may be
other members of H.M. forces who are in
the same position as myself, unable to keep
in touch.
I quite understand that any article you
print does not necessarily mean that you
agree with all the views, or else of course
your journal would not be fair to either it-
self or the public. But even if you do not
support the ideas set out in the article in
question, will you please be good enough to
put me in touch with someone who is, at
heart, a Spiritualist — not just a “pheno-
mena hunter”.
Success to your paper — keep it up!

dressing itself not solely to British read-
ers, but to both sides. And for the good of
Iceland let it introduce our people to the
principles of British journalism with its
unique tradition. If the SUNDAY POST
will do this, long may it prosper.

Mr. Jonsson’s proposal is an interesting
one. We suggest that anyone — Icelandic
British — who is interested in the idea of
exchanging language lessons should com-
municate with him at the English Book-
shop. The coldst of surfaces must surely
melt under a mutual bombardment of G-
sounds and trilling R’s. — Mr. Jonsson
will no doubt be able to supply the appro-
priate Byronic quotation which, however,
we will not print here for fear of being
misunderstood. As for the last paragraph
— well I'm afraid we’re not a mixture of
Addison — Garvin and William Hickey —
but we’ll do our best!
INVISIBLE MENDING
