HELL TOO GOOD FOR HIM

by the greater part of the civilized
people of the world
Seated on his throne Of flame, with
the fumes of burning sulphur as in
cense, the Ruler of He'll surveyed the
mighty throng of kindred spirits.
They had been called in from their
work throughput all the universe to
report on all the evil that they had
been able to accomplish or that in
their devilish ingenuity they had been
able to plan. From the myriads of
peopled worlds where Satan's minions
had been striving to put into action
all of the evil influences upon which,
through the unnumbered centuries,
they had fed their imagination, came
the leaders of Satan's kingdom.
One by one they sought to win the
favor of the Ruler of He'll by telling
of diabolical deeds, each trying to
surpass the other as they told of sins
that had never before been heard of
even in these Internal regions. AS
Satan listened to these chosen spirits,
with all their hell-born devices to pull
down virtue and uplift sin, there
crossed his countenance the faint
glimmer of smile in a region where
laughter is unknown-the Satanic
smile of satisfaction at how well his
messengers had learned their lessons
ard improved on his teachings.
Presently, however, there came one
who, despite the effort to suppress
him, demanded full hearing.
"This region" said he "has too long
been ruled by incompetence and me-
diocrity.
Through the ages we have been
taught that Satan held his position
and his power because in all the wide
universe there had never been found
demon who could match him in vile
ness or who could, sometimes in the
guise of a saint and sometimes in
that of fiend, work such indescrib-
able horrors upon all of Gods Great
ures.
1--WE have been told that no other
demon in all the universe had the
imagination to plan or the power to
wreak upon the innocent such sorrow
and suffering as Satan.
eve have been told that for devil
ish ingenuity in devising new sins
and new ways of destroying virtue,
in tearing down all that is good, and
in spreading broadcast through I'M
numbered worlds unending sin and
suffering, Satan had never been
matched.
"But though this may all have been
true in the past, it is no longer true.
The right of rulership by reason of
in evil no longer belongs
to him who has dominated us.
st have come from earth, where for
nearly three years it has been my
mission to study the work of one who
has devised more evils and more sin
and more sorrow and suffering than
any of us have ever before known in
all our wide travels from world to
world.
81 have found one who outclasses
Satan.
81 have found one in comparison
with whom as deviser of evil and
sin and the creator of sorrow Satan
is but cheap piker.
ct have brought with me the one
who, by reason of his abilities to muir
der innocent women and children and
to cause such outrages upon them
that murder itself seems angelic by
comparison, and with unmatched n.y.
pocrisy claims that he is co-partner
with the Almighty in his devilsh work,
is justly entitled to rule this region.
Since the beginning of time there
has never before been one who gloried
in such campaigns of murder and out
raging of women and children as he
has gloated over.
"Other men have committed these
crimes, but in doing so they have
shrunk back abashed before even the
devils themselves.
"But / have found one who glories
in these achievements.
81 have found one who has rejoiced
in unspeakable outrages committed
by his army upon innocent women;
one who has covered the world with
voiceless woe; one who has made
rape an honor and murder a crown of
glory.
81 have found one who has made
the name of his people, honored in the
past, now a kissing and a by-word,
hated. by all the world; despised as
have been no other people in all hu-
man history; stencil in the nostrils
of all decent men and women; one
who turned his army and navy into
cold blooded murderers and ravishers
of women and children, and made
them glory in their deeds of evil.
'sI have found one who, in times of
peace, covered all the world with his
spies; one who, under the guise of
friendship, was for years preparing to
stab to death everyone who stood be-
tween him and his lust of world
power; one who has educated his
once well-meaning people into active
agents to commend his devilish work,
