Pharaoh's daughter, and he became
her SON. Exodus ii, 10).
In these verses OF the Biblical
narrative is the simple story OF one
OF the greatest events in the history
OF man. when reckoned BY conse.
Qrences.
The adoption OF Moses by Phar-
aoh's daughter "as her son" made
POSSIBLE all OF the rest O. the history
Ct Moses and IF the redemption OF
Israel from Egyptian bondage. but
il also made possible the great lead
e''hip o. Moses, which could hardly
haze occurred otherwise.
:. that time Egypt was great
c2Htre OF learning and science. The
Pyramids had been built, and won.
derfui temples and palaces which
tell us even today OF the great me-
chanical skill. the astronomical adj
vancemcnt. and the general high cul.

a possible that they might be the
lection. All OF the vast learning OF
that day, and Il probably extended
10 q knowledge OF electricity, OF
much OF modern chemistry, and
splendid philosophy and poetry. was
reserved for the Pharaohs and the
priests. The men. women and chill
and write
!, is therefore very plain that the
adoption OF Moses as the son OF
the Princess meant everything in
the way OF opportunity TO him. He
was thus given a right to study
all OF the secret learning the
esoteric sciencc-as ii was called
OF the priests and princes. and in
this way mis- mind was expanded and
he was thoroughly equipped for his
life mission. Not only was he to
lead his people ont, but he was TO
become their great law-givcr. and
Egyptian learning was made to
serve in preparing Noses for this
work. which was TO stand for ages.
and still stands as the supreme ideal
OF civilized mankind, especially in
the Ten Commandments. which are
still the moral code OF the world.
The finding OF this palace OF
Namcscs among the ruins OF Mem
phis is OF tremendous Importance,
for as the explorers go deeper into
the remains and bring TO light all
that is there. they may find not only
the room in which Moses lived for
forty years. while he was receiving
his education, but at the same time,
many Of the very statues and wall
pictures which his eyes saw. and
more than possibly. some OF the
very books from which he mastered
the great learning Of the Egyptians

name OF his favorite daughter, and
she was doubtless the one who
adopted Moses. Her name was

An Official statement received this

OF sanguinary fighting all along the

German advance which now Is being
concentrated on Riga and on Warsaw,
while the Austro-Hung arians are NOV

Advices reaching London today say
that the Germans left trail OF desc
