thoughts it has stirred up in my mind.
".Charles I of England was the
successor Of long line of kings and
queens who had ruled the country for
centuries, and were believed to reign
by, divine right. The people were con.
stantly reminded of the scriptural in
junction to tlove the brotherhood, fear
God and honor the king with the en-
phasis on the last phrase. But when
the people Of England became con-
WINGED that it was no longer right and
proper, they ceased to honor the king
and caused him to be beheaded. The
thrones Of Germany and Russia were
upheld by the same belief, but they
have fallen, never to be restored. The
sway Of rulers henceforth must be
