MIND OVER MATTER
Psychology and Laughter
The most extraordinary mentalist of our day and age.
His performance considered solely as entertainment is the most FASCINATING, DELIGHTFUL and UNIQUE exhibition in mysticism.
THE MAN WHO DOES THE IMPROBABLE AND ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE.
He brings to the platform more sheer EXCITEMENT, SUSPENSE and WHOLESOME LAUGHTER than almost anyone else.
FOR THAT SPECIAL EVENT!!

Bewildering Demonstration of the Almost Impossible

DR. HENRY GERALD
A BRILLIANT SCANDINAVIAN PSYCHOLOGIST who has Mental Telepathy, Mirth and Mysticism as a means to fashion an evening you will always remember. An evening designed for your Relaxation, Education, and Entertainment. Members from the audience participate in the individual experiments which range from the
nearly impossible
to the
absolutely impossible
thus giving you an insight into the mental phenomena of the world of tomorrow.
HIS WORK IS SCIENTIFIC IN CHARACTER—his personality, his sincerity, his unusual psychic powers, his expert showmanship, all seasoned with his happy humor, insure an exciting experience. He presents something
so different
that description falls far short of realty. Thousands of audiences — men and women — attest to this truth.
DIFFERENT AND ABSOLUTELY NEW. An evening of occult demonstrations traversing the entire gamut of human emotions from the most serious to the most hilarious.
IT IS A PROGRAM OF UNBOUNDED FUN in all of its aspects. A program bristling with incredible revelations, presented by a sincere scientist. Bewildering, unbelievable mental feats follow, one after the other. All presented by a superb showman blessed with that happy faculty of imparting humor to all that he does. Absolutely the finest and best one man offering of the day.
A PERFORMANCE YOU WILL ENJOY and want see and hear time and time again.
ENTERTAINMENT INCOMPARABLE with anything else you or your friends have ever seen. An amusing, exciting, thought-provoking hour or more of sheer amusement.
* Amazing and Amusing Experiments In Telepathy!
* Power of Will!
* Mathematical Feats!
* Clairvoyance!
* Impossibilities!
A Gerald Program
is the answer to every program chairman's prayer.

Pithy Praises
N. E. Telephone Company Secy.-Treas. James Flate still Can't Believe It!
I do not believe there is a more critical audience than one composed of doctors and you certainly held them from start to finish—a fact which I think speaks in SUPERLATIVES FOR A FASCINATING PERFORMANCE.
RICHARD P. STETSON, M. D. Chairman, N. E. Postgraduate Assembly
It isn't very often that a group of business men and legislators can be SWEPT OFF THEIR FEET, but Tuesday evening, March 4th, was such an evening. Dr. Henry Gerald certainly put on a superb show.
SAMUEL BERNSTEIN Executive Director — New York State Wholesale Beer Distributors Ass'n, Inc.
The reception given him by our students and faculty was better than for any other speaker we have had in the last two years. The reaction of our audience is that Dr. Gerald is THE BEST THEY HAVE SEEN OR HEARD. We certainly want to have him with us again.
MAURICE E. HASTE, Chairman Public Programs Committee Tennesee Polytechnic Institute
Dr. Gerald was really A BIG HIT. He DREW A RECORD CROWD and went over in SENSATIONAL STYLE. A great performance. Gerald's humor spiced up the program and added a lot. The students will be talking this over for a long time.
E. H. EVANS, Convocation Chairman State Teachers College Florence, Alabama
You gave us a truly amazing demonstration which still has our members talking and wondering. A fascinating program.
WILLIAM VOGLER, President New England Confectioners
Our notice to our members announcing your talk on Psychology in Action indicated that your demonstrations ranged ALL THE WAY FROM THE IMPROBABLE TO THE ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE. Your performance more than fulfilled our prophecy, to the intense enjoyment of our members. They are talking about it, and hope to see you in action again next year.
ROGER T. CLAPP, President Providence Art Club
Henry Gerald proved to be all you said he would be and easily kept our large group in a state of bewilderment and pleased anticipation throughout his entire program. They completely enjoyed the performing of miracles. I know of no other speaker who could have entertained our group as well as he.
F. L. MANSER, Program Chairman United States Rubber Company South Bend, Indiana

The HIGH LIGHT OF OUR ENTIRE CONVENTION was the performance of Dr. Henry Gerald. It was the most amazing demonstration we ever witnessed and still mystifies everyone.
HOWARD L. CROSS, Secretary New York State Hay and Grain Dealers Ass'n
A very pleasant evening. He mystified us, made us laugh, and—made us think. He is a charming, cultured gentleman and we enjoyed immensely having him with us.
ROGER FERGER Queen City Club, Cincinnati, Ohio
Everyone was delighted with Doctor Gerald's performance. He was most generous and the program lasted a half hour longer than is customary but people still wanted more. He really is amazing and I hope we can have him again.
CHAIRMAN, Town Club Portland, Oregon
It was the most successful meeting of my experience, being he best attended and the most talked about afterward. Everyone was completely mystified.
