Helen's Story
It all began when my sister, Betty, and I were in a downtown St. Louis
coffee shop. We had been shopping and had stopped off to get a coke
and refresh ourselves. While in the coffee shop we were approached in
a very mannerly way by two gentlemen dressed in grey suits, who
managed to interrupt into our private conversation. As they spoke to us
we found that they were from a huge mother-craft orbiting the planet
Earth, and that their names were Elen and Zelas. They told us that we
had been very closely watched by the Space People for the last eight
years, and that our progress had been noted off and on from the time of
our birth. Betty and I were both inclined to think that someone was
playing a silly joke on us and we laughed when they told us this, but
they were not laughing and were serious and stern. We were strangely
shocked, however, when they told us of a few incidents in our
childhood that no one could have possibly known except the family.
They told us that we had been selected as contacts by the people of
space to serve as channels through which they could give certain
information to Earth, and that we had been carefully watched, as I
stated before. They told us of the reasons why the space people were
coming to Earth and that they were here to guide Earth along the lines
of Brotherhood and Science.
We were very much amazed at their words, and we noted particularly
the kindness and warmth that shone in their eyes. With a single glance

from them we seemed to sense the vast wisdom and brotherhood which
they must have lived among. After talking with us for a little over two
hours they left and told us they would contact us again, but it was not
until a week later that we were impelled to again return to the same
coffee shop.
When we entered the door we again saw one of the Space Brothers, and
he gave us instructions at that time for building a device whereby we
could contact the Space People. His instructions were explicit and
precise, for he warned us that unless we placed every piece of the
device in the proper place we would not be able to contact them with it.
We were not allowed to take the drawn diagram of the device with us,
But we had to remember it as it was explained to us. When we obtained
the proper pieces for the device we constructed it when we returned
home, and were happy to find the results were satisfactory. We were
amazed when we tuned in on the mother craft and spoke with the same
person we had earlier seen. We were also allowed to speak with the
commander of the craft, who at that time was known as Alna. In the
following six months we spoke many times with the space people
through the device, and received much information about their homes,
sciences and craft.
In November of '57 I was alone in downtown St. Louis on business
when I was again contacted by the space people and at their request
went with them by automobile into Illinois where we drove to a heavily
wooded area. There, I was told, was where they landed when they had
business or contacts to make in St. Louis. Settled back behind an old
barn was a circular craft that I judged to be approximately nine feet in
height, and about 38 feet in diameter. It had a domed top, but no
portholes. The sliding door was open and there was a uniformed
operator sitting at the controls.
I was nervous although I knew no harm would come for me, and I was
visibly shaking, but Zelas only smiled as though to reassure me. The
flight to the mother craft took approximately 15 minutes, and I was told
the magnetism of the small craft would not affect my watch since it
would be balanced by the magnetism of my own body. However, while

in the mother craft the magnetism of it caused my watch for stop, and it
was de-magnetized in a small machine before I left.
Inside the mother craft we entered the huge receiving room for the
smaller craft. There were many huge machines in this room, and there
were also many other uniformed men standing around obviously
working upon the machines or moving them about. They glanced at us
when we entered, but then returned to their work as before. The hall
that we entered was softly lit and
