Radioesthetics became a household word in France almost overnight when gendarmes of Chaumont called in the water-finders to search for the body of 6-year-old Nicole Marescot, supposed to have been murdered by a saddlst. One radloesthetlclan said the body had been thrown Into a river, while another demonstrated that It had been buried in a grotto.

Analogous experi ments, carried out by a committee formed by the Academy of Sciences In 1013, and reorganized In 1030. for the sole purpose of testing the divin ers' claims, did not register a high proportion of successes. However, some of the member of that committee were sufficiently Im pressed to Join the Association of the Friends of Radioesthetics, and one of them.
