the world. History told not Of

this country by their heroic lives
afforded inspiration to the pioneer

young orator showed himself pos

he handled his subject in a way
which showed that he understood
its significance. Beginning with
the origin of civilization in Egypt,
he passed in review the intellectual
supremacy Of Greece, the military
greatness of Rome, the new era
ushered in by the birth Of Christ,
and the great movements that
marked the progress af the world
in mediaevaI and moderu times.
The marvellous achievements of the
