...Lily Dale Assembly, in New York, is the "Largest Spiritualist Camp in the World." There each summer spiritualism bursts into full bloom. Last week its 61st annual session drew believers and skeptics alike for contact with the spirit world. In parlor seances in many a medium's cottage along Lily Dale's wooded roads, the ether was crowded with voices.
