HUMAN POTENTlALITlES

The far reaching possibilities of the individual for good or evil were never more forcibly illustrated than in the case of Savrio Prinzip. the Serbian youth whom wa are told is the man who assassinated the Arch Duke Francis Ferdinand of Austria, and set in motion the momentous train of events leading up to the present war the most stupendous human conhiet in the history of the world.
 Prinzip was little more than a boy, an unknown university student. scarce a man except in stature weak and ef femnate i'll appearance and completely under the domination of the group of political conspirators whose urging led him to the dastardiy deed at Serajev last summer which set Europe aBame and disturbed the peace and prosperity of the whole earth. Only hoy. and Vet his hand is responsible for one of the most momentous and reaching deeds in history
 Back of all the numerous explana- tions offered as the why and wherefor of the war back of the Yoluminous mass of erudite manuscripts of scholars and the vehement sereeds of sympa- thizers of the warning nations, is the hand of this immature youth.
 Written luridly across the pages of the past are the names of many others whose acts have turned and shaped the destinies of Ampires. History is filled with the tales of men and women of lowiy station who have yielded an enormous influence for good or evil in the affairs of mankind. Tramps and strumpets have at times jared the mightest nations to the very founda- tons. Kings and Emperors have been unseated and times unnumbered the nations of the earth have grappled in the throes of bloody and long continued wars because of the act of some person whose existence among the great iildSS oI huluaHilA HdS QnsuSpcCbtu until thoy emerged from obseurity and stood revealed to the world in answer to the prompting of inscrutable destiny Dozens of such have come and gone. the great majority leaving behind them a trail of destruction. death and deso- latlon but when the final word of his tory has been scanned. few can be found whose acts have had such an immeasurable influence on the affairs of mankind as has that of this deluded boy of serajevo Not only was the act of his hand the initial impulse leading 10 the destruction of millions amidst the tumult of war but it has been felt as a mighty force in all the civilized nations of the earth, regardless of sit- uation.
