An Opposite Course From satsn's.
Pastor Russell then contrasted the
course pursued by Satan with that fol-
lowed by our Lord. Meditating am
bilious designs, Satan found an oppor-
tunity in Eden. He beheld in our first
parents a new order Of beings, design
ed to bring into existence race that
would fill the earth. Satan essayed to
be ruler or prince over this human Gre
alton; and by so doing, he not only be-
came n rebel against God, but brought
sin and death into the world.
Our Lord Jesus pursued an opposite
course, and demonstrated His loyalty
and obedience. st. Paul intimates that
although the Logos was much higher
than was Lucifer, yet He was humble,
and "meditated not usurpatiOn," as
the Greek text declares. phil. ii,
g. He thought not by robbery to be
equal with God. On the contrary, our
Lord willingly accepted the Divine pro-
posal that He should be humbled to the
human plane for time, in order to
carry out the Fathers Plan.
To the Church, Jesus is Gods I'M
speakable Gift. He is indeed a Gift
to the whole world, unspeakable in
value, but He is more to the Church
than to the world. To His footstep
followers, He is the Captain of their
Salvation" their Bridegroom, their
elder Brother" their great High
Priest. Through Him they are priv
ileged to be the Royal Priesthood.
Through the merit of the sacrifice of
Christ, they are privileged 10 present
their bodies living sacrifices, holy, ac-
ceptable unto God"
The Pastor then said that Justice is
the foundation OF Gods Throne. In
the past, eudeayOrs TO harmonic JUS

dict" on the Dlackguard and his realm.
His holiness also called upon the
Christian rulers to unite against John.
This last danger scared the cowardly
tyrant into submission. But he re-
fused to make his peoples hardships
lighter.
Then it was that the powerful bar
ons, led by Stephen Langton, arch
bishop of Canterbury, presented
code of laws for the betterment Of the
people and for the curbing Of oppres-
sion. They called this document the
Magma Charta (Great Charter).
Among other reforms, the charter pro-
vided fair trial for every prisoner,
authorized the nation to resist unjust
royal demands and put the will Of the
people ahead Of a mere kings wishes.
The church's liberty was to be re-
spected and no mans possessions
were to be wrongfully seized by the
crown.
John was asked to sign the Magma
Charta. He refused. The barons and
the common people combined to force
him to sign 1t. Frightened by their
power and his own weakness, John at
last consented. Thus was English lib
erty born and the rights of man were
established. John met the barons at
a meadow, near Runnymede. on June
IS, 1915 salved his vanity by pretend
ing to make a Jest of the matter,
signed the charter and--safe in his
palace-gave way to fit OF maniacal
rage.
Though he had been coerced into
performing an act of splendid justice
by signing the Magma Charta, John
had not the faintest idea of keeping
his promises to the barons. He called
on foreign hired soldiers to help him
crush his rebellious subjects. The
English retaliated by asking a French
prince to come over and be their king.
The land was once more rent by CIV
II war. John showed no mercy to his
own country, but desolated and
wrecked it wherever his armies could
find foothold. At the climax Of the
struggle his mind gave way He sick
ened and, on October 10, 1916, died.
Some historians believe he was pol
soned.

une JOKE.
But the moment the regally clad
man reached his private apartments
in the palace, away from the eyes of
the public, his mask Of false gayety
was cast aside. He hurled himself
upon the floor, screaming, raving and
bowling fearful blasphemies, foaming
at the mouth and biting like a mad
dog at the rushes that strewed the
floor.
Nor was this burst of insane fury
without an excuse. For the man was
a tyrant; and that day had been forced
to sign the death-warrant of tyranny.
He was John, king Of England. More
than a century and half had passed
since William the Conqueror had won
England, beginning the blend of Nor
man and Saxon races and giving the
English new line of kings and no.

had several sons, all of whom hated
their father and at various times con-
spired against him. John was the
youngest. From his poverty he be-
came known as Lakeland" The eld-
est son, Godfrey, died during Henry's
lifetime, leaving one son, little Prince
Arthur. Geoffrey's next youngest
brother, Richard (known as Lion
HEARTH, became king of England at
Henry's death. He spent nearly all
his ten-year reign fighting in other
countries, and died chlldless.
During Richards absence from Eng
land John had tried to seize the crown
for himself. On Richards return he
had to fly for his own life before the
wrath of the brother he had striven to
supplant. Richard, however, forgave
him, and named him as heir to the
throne. On Lion Hearts" death
John became king of England in 1899.
Some of the mobiles tried to make his
nephew, young Prince Arthur, king in
Johns place. Civil war broke out
John was victorious. Arthur was cap,
tured and thrown into prison. John Ia
said to have had the sixteen.year-eld
boys eyes put out and then to have
( murdered him. The king Of France
made war on John to avenge this al
legged murder, and seized nearly al
England's French possessions.
John, forced thus to conflne his tyr
amy to his own country, proceeded tC
make his peoples lives miserable. He
seized at will the few possessions Of
the poor and laid heavy taxes on the
rich. He insulted and ill-treated the
clergy, defying the pope himself. The
church thereupon nlaced an "inter

The popularity of Hot Springs as a municipality has splendid opportun- fly of being broadened during the com ing week, when the people of Arkan- gas will be our guests during the an nual Arkansas State Fair
 The people of Hot Springs and the people of Arkansas have never been as close together as they might have been with profit to both. This is probably true from the fact that bus mess relations of Hot Springs are foreign to the business relations of other parts of the state.
