there has been an old internatlolalisnl.
The Oldest internatlonalism was that
of exploration, made in the interest OIL
discovery at the impulse OF curiosity.

the iniernatlonallsm Of conquest. The
leaders Of this form Of the internation-
al spirit, are Hannibal. Alexander,
pjzarro and Napoleon. OF these the
symbol may still be "a tiger tapping
blood" or IAN eagle with his beak
buried In the heart OF his victim.

The missionary and teacher are both
