At sixteen Henry Vincent was separated from his family as a result of the war. He wandered aimlessly from one country to another 1 before finally settling down in Australia, 2 where he trained AS an electronics engineer. He established HIS own business but it called for so much work that marriage was out of the 3 question.
His retirement suddenly made him realise how lonely he was and he decided to 5 take up a hobby. Whit his interest in electronics, amateur radio seemed a natural choice. He installed his own equipment and obtained a license and his call sign, which is the set of letters and numbers used to identify oneself when making radio contact 6 with other radio amateurs all around the world.
Soon Henry had a lot of contacts in far-off places. One in particular was a man in California with 7 whom he had much in common. One night the man in California made to mention the village in Europe he had come from. Suddenly, Henry realised that this man was in fact his younger brother, Peter. At first, the two brothers were at a 8 loss for words but then little by little they filled 9 in the details of their past lives and not long afterwards Henry Vincent flew to California to 10 be reunited with his brother.

When we look across a field, how do we know that one distant object is bigger than another or that one object is behind another, not in front of it? In other words, how do we see things in three dimensions, in proper relation to each other, instead of seeing every thing “ flat ”? The answer is that when we see things we see things in the light of experience. Our minds and memories help us to interpret what we see. For instance, experience gives us an idea about the size of things. A man on a boat some distance from the shore looks much smaller than a man on the beach. But you don’t think that one is very large man and the other a very small man. What you say to yourself is that one man is nearby and the other is far away.
