Page 42 THE ALCHEMIST looked up in the Telephone Directory, City Directory, ect. They often have spies at the door of the theater as people come in and if any well-known person is recognized they will answer their questions. Another little trick is planting employees to overhear conversations ect. After this bit of information is received, the question and information is read into a small telephone which the two wires go up and protrude from the floor of the stage. Anna Eva Fay had metal plates on her shoes and from there the two wires continued up her legs under her stocking and under her dress and up the back of her neck where her long hair hid the fine wires. Then directly behind her ears hidden in the heavy hair were two receivers which were loud enough for her to hear but inaudible to the audience. All she had to do was to make contact with her metal shoe-plates and the wires that protruded from the stage and listen to the information --- not from a dim shadow world that only she, and other mediums can reach, but from a far-from-supernatural source of a small hidden room beneath the stage! !!YEARBOOK!! The 1939 index to science, weird and fantasy fiction! See our swell "Ad" in the May-June issue of Famous Fantastic Mysteries... ((Page 125--LM).. or you can have a copy now for 20 cents! !!YEARBOOK!!

buscados nas listas telefonicas, diretórios de cidades, etc. Eles geralmente possuiam espiões posicionados nas portas dos teatros conforme as pessoas entravam, e se algum famoso fosse reconhecido eles responderiam às suas perguntas. Outro pequeno truque era plantar empregados para entreovir conversas e etc. Após esses poucos dados serem recebidos, a pergunta e a informação era lidas em um pequeno telefone, cujo os cabos sobressaiam do chão do palco. Anna Eva Fay possuia discos de metal em seus sapatos, e deles, dois cabos continuavam por suas pernas sob suas meias e vestido e para cima em direção as costas e ao pescoço, onde seu longo cabelo escondia os peguenos fios metalicos. Então bem de trás de suas orelhas, escondidos no denso cabelo, estavam dois receptores altos o suficientes para que ela pudesse escutar, mas inaudível para a audiencia. Para isso, ela só precisava fazer contato entre os discos de metal em seu sapato e os cabos saindo do chão, então ouvir as informações -- não de um mundo obscuro que apenas ela, e outros mediums podiam alcaçar; mas de uma fonte longe de ser considerada sobrenatural, diretamente de um pegueno comodo escondido sob o palco.
