oneering broods who from the days OF
the first Vikings have pushed their res
olute way about the world, breezily self

ciSely among these people that kingship
has survived and cannot even be classed
as a dangerous trade, while most of

Retain High Standards.
1t must be added that this group Of
nations maintains the highest standard
Of living in Europe and that their gen.
eral Level OF education and culture will
challenge comparison with those in any
republican countries.
The survival OF kingship among them
is indeed attributable to precisely these
characteristics. Their individualiSm and
independence led to an early develop
ment of democratic principles and
methods at a time when royalty was
still the only recognized form of state
government, and their monarchS were
forced by them to concede reluctantly
and step by step the ever-growing limi-
tationS upon their autocracy.

T ONDON.-This year marks the
coming of age of widespread
movement throughout the world
IL for the abolition of monarchies.
This movement celebrated its
majority by hurting a King from one OF
the most ancient thrones-at one time
the most potent throne in the world.
Just twenty-one years ago. in 1910,
King Manuel of Portugal was driven
from his throne, to be replaced by
Senior Braga, first President of the Por-
tugllese Republic. In 1911 revolution
broke out In China, which ended in the
setting up OF republic there in 1912.
Until the early years of this twentieth
century monarchy was. with only iso-
lated exceptions, the normal and all but
universal form of government through

As result power passed steadily from
the crown and its narrow aristocratic
circle to the far wider but more stable
middle classes, and when revolution was
in the air In other lands these nations
had already secured a sufficiently wide
distribution Of power to the people to
be able to secure its extension and the
carrying out of needed reforms without
resort to revolutionary upheavals or
the abolition of the monarchy. On the
other hand, in ali countries which have
lost their Kings since the war the crown
