KAISER ON RELIGION.
Emperor WIidms address to His
Sons After Their Confirmation.

Berlin Oct lS-At the dinner given i'm the
New Palace yesterday in honor of the confrma-
tion Of Princes August William and Oscar. re-
spectively the fourth and fifth sons of Emperor
William. his majesty addressed the princes as
follows:
My Dear Sons: This day is in its spiritual re-
lation 10 be compared to the day officer or
soldier takes the oath OF loyalty. To-day you
have. so to speak, come of age in your beliefs
l speak Intentionally in the military sense be-
cause L assume that you also know the beautiful
alegory in which the Christian is compared to
the warrior You WILL of course carry out what
YOU have to-day so beautifully promised I'm your
VOWS 10 your spiritual Master. With justice YOU
have emphasized the fact that YOU intend TO be
personages. That, i'm my opinion. is the point
which most concerns the Christian i'm his daily
life for undou otedly we can say with comfort
Of the Saviour that he was the most personal
parsonage who ever walked the earth among
men.
In your lessons YOU have read and heard of
many great men who have elevated and even
inspired YOU but theirs are only human words
and no human words can be considered equal TO
any single word of our Lord. Never has hui
man word succeeded in inspiring the people of
all races and all nations equally to the same
their lives for Him. This miracle can only be
explained in the assumption that His words are
the words of everlasting life.
From my experience | can assure you
that the angle and turning point of human lfe
and especially a responsible and busy life, lies
alone in the attitude adopted toward our
Saviour. There cannot be any doubt that
Lord lives to-day as an entire personality
which cannot be ignored. / ready to believe
that many persons take the view that In modern
life IL is impossible that any should concern
himself so intimately with the Saviour, or take
Him into consideration, formerly, but the only
helper and rescuer remains the Saviour.
advise you from the bottom Of my heart
10 toll and work without ceasing. That is the
kernel OF Christian life. He who viii be most
heavily punished is he who does nothing, who
goes with the stream and let's others work
May each of you strive to do his best in his
: a
with his tasks according to the example of his
Saviour. Strive that what you undertake
shall be joy TO your fellow men. or at least
he Of service to them: then you viii have &C
conplished what is expected of you. That You
may not be wanting in the help OF God and or
our Savious-to this let empty our glasses
