Three continents-Africa. Europe and

PIE.
Il abounds with paIhos and superstj-
ton and IS 6 striking picture Of unusual
an bition. The royal folk who CONF pose
this tale sre the children Of Je-ger,
King Of the ZuIus, and the heir appar-

finally Joined the gallant Twenty

That Prince Jerger became an A-aeri-

rha British invasion OF the kadr inte-
ri0r made possible over q score OF years
ago.
The ebony Prince Joined the United
States army that h might gain the

Together they made plans for the fu-
ture welfare Of his people. and then he
boldly announced his intended marTi-
age TO the professors. The faculty said
him nay; the law OF the university for

professors advised him 10 consider well.
They argued that no man can pursue
two idols with success, and that mar

thinking, hence II We will study the
fundamental ideas Of any period we
get the key that unlocks the state Of
progress nj that period. The progress
Of all ages has been to unfold the idea
Of liberty and freedom, which is the
Fundamental key that unlocks the
meaning Of all past history.
"In the beginning of civilization
man was ignorant and unfit for self
government. An arbitrary lnonarchial
form Of government was the proper
one. Progress was slow, because
knowledge was limited and the means
Of disseminating it was crude. Hence
we will move as rapidly in 50 years
now as man moved in 500 or 1900 years
In the past.
'Man could not exercise larger lib
erty until he had knowledge to choose
from. You would expect then to find
him reaching out and demanding
greater rights in the direction which
most profoundly moved him. The first
demand was in the direction of de-
manding the right to live. Historical
Principles and LawS.) When once en-
gagged In solving any phase Of liberty
he has refused to be diverted to other
questions however important until the
question in hand was settled. Com
ing events cast their shadows before, ,

problem in which they are engaged,
| one or more far-seeing rcformcrs are
agitating questions which must some
time be taken up in their proper order
and Ike settled. The opposition which
new thought and new truth has always
met has come from class organization
established by monarchy in the begin
ming. After the first period Of viO-
lcnce incident to the struggle which
changes institutions passes away there
comes second period OF the adapta-
tion, a softening down of aspersions
and hatreds, and the union and COM
ing together OF the opposing forces.
| This Is absolutely necessary to com
plete freedom. When mankind settles
one great question he turns inlmedi-
ately to another, but this other is al
ways related TO and is the Outgrowth
Of the former. Agitation Is as ncces-
Sary as progress itself. Excitement
and unrest and agitation are healthy
signs. Running water puritics itself.
SO does agitation purify the body po-
little. There never can be absolute
peace in the sense that man is going
to refuse to question the right Of evil
to exist, and refuse to take means to
overthrow II"

not due To any belief on the part OF

There are other reasons why warrants

them being that the c0unty's out
