Theosophical Society Speak
er Says a New Race Is
Now Developing.


aThe Law OF Evolution for the Race
was the subject Of a lecture given last
night by Miss Annie c Mcqueen a
-tIgosophical lecturer from New York,
who is delivering a series IN the FIRST

Every race develops under a definite
law fixed for its evolution by Ine
divine guardians Of humanity who
know the plan which the great God
of our solar system has for this planet,
earth" she said. Mans service IN the
scheme OF evolution is to develop intel
Iect and each race develops some one
phase Of the whole volume Of evolving
The Teutonie Race.
IF we take the subdivisions Of the
great Aryan race, to which we belong,
and trace them backwards, We find that
the Teutouic race is the fifth subrace,
and that its keynote, or law Of evolu-
ton, is the development Of Individual
ism. This is evident today in the asssr-
ton Of the spirit of the race which mas
thrown all Europe into var Two
thousand years z this fifth SUFFRAGE
had its birth, a birth safeguarded by
great leaders one. the great law glver.
Impressed upon II the character OF self
reliance the other, ths great love glver,
or spiritual teacher, taught II the
beauty of self sacrifice. The two char
acteristics Of the race were

that race stands at the climax or It's
growth and decision stin hangs IN the

Preceding the TeutOnlc race was the
Celtic, which gave US Greece and Rome

Here the law OF evolution was beauty.
Prior to the Celtic race, came n
Irauian, giving the wonderful coun-
tries of Chaldea and Persia, with their
star knowledge, their fire worship,

was duty.
To-day we stand at h beginning
Of the sixth subdivision Of the y
