The Worlds Fools.

The fortunate few who constituted the
highly appreciative audience which as
sembled at the Congregational church
on the evening Of March 4th. to hear
and enjoy the interesting lecture deliv-
cred by Mrs. Radford on that c%onspicu-
Gus, but select class of people which she
was pleased to denominate "the worlds
FOOLS" have ever since been congrat-
ulating themselves and each other upon
their good fortune in having availed
themselves of the opportunity to hear
presented in a most able and eloquent
manner, the worlds political, moral and
religious history, which was most vivid
ly depicted in the short space of an
hours time. By the simplicity and logic
Of the speaker, her audience was led
from the exacting present, back through
the dark ages TO the dawn OF Christian
civilization, from which date the worlds
material, moral and religious interests
were shown to have steadily progressed
in opposition to a constantly existing
and menacing majority. for the reason
that any departure from existing affects
and influences its material interests.
The startling statement was made that
in history not a single record can be
found where the majority wan on the
right side Of any great or meritorious
question, and strange as it may seem,
the assertion was demonstrated to be
correct. 1t was clearly shown that the
idea OF all progressive reforms, in every
department of life. was conceived by
some original and profound thinker,
who had the ability and courage to
advocate his principles in the face ofthe
strongest popular opposition, in the
interest Of struggling humanity for
which he knew that during his earthly
existence he would be ridiculed and
cepsured and classed as a crank, and a
fool, by the majority. which, when only
a record of his life remained, would
hasten to pronounce him a public bene
factor, and proceed To erect a monument
10 his memory.
So interesting and instructive was the
lecture that, although delivered in a
religious sanctuary, the enthusiasm Of
the audience was so great that it would
not be suppressed, but found vent in n
most hearty applause, and all expressed
themselves as, bv it. having been made
wiser, better, and consequently happier,
and requested, in the interest Of their
friends who were not present, that it be
repeated.
