sources of the science Of geography Is into
the social and intellectual world. Under
the present order of things civilization has
reached its western limit and 1t will re-
bound and the new discoveries will be made
in the march from west to east and Will
fall upon land where tie fondest dreams
of human souls will be realiZed-a higher
civilization and peaceful condition OF the
earth.
1t will be a contamination Of hope, and
the new discoveries will find a condition of
life in an ideal commonwealth. To bring
this about there must first be an equal dis
tribution Of the worlds wealth. This will
not be done by acts of legislation but by
social forces. This the lecturer claimed
was the adjustment Of life. International
colonization or the waste places of the
earth was another aid In bringing about
this ideal republic. A universal education,
the lecturer believed. was becoming real
lied fact, and he stated that the day was not
far distant when a universal speech would
prevail.
He strongly indorsed the public schools
and believed 1t to be the greatest factor Of
modern and future civilization. What was
wanted more than all was a greater dissem-
ination of love and charity, Of which so
little is now seen in the world. Indications
all point to grand consummatlon of these
things and future generations In perhaps
the sunrise century will be joined together
in one great brotherhood. Heaven will be
the esult of this building Of human hands,
and who knows, said the speaker, but that
glorious paradise dreamed Of by man from
the cradle to the grave will be here in the
very hills and valleys of this earth.

not rise till well on to o'clock, owing to
