- philosophy, :15. In that short sentence is inscribed the story of the failure of the Greeks. They are the cleverest people of ancient times. It is possible that they were the most brilliant intellectually who have ever lived. But they were vain, volatile, changeable. fraud of their quick wits and fluent ton- " guns, they were eager for every opportunity to show off. Inquisitive and ckle they were as hungry for some new theory, new new hero or leader as is a conrmed movielfan for a new thrill or new vulgarity to tickle his jaded appetite. It we this fickleness and superciality which, in spite of their intellectual brilliance, wrote failure across the story of the Greeks as a national and political force. The Apostle Paul had bitter experience of this characteristic of the Greeks. From -Athens he went to. Corinth. He lived there as much as eighteen -months at a time, preaching and teaching them before any other Christian evangelist or missionary came near them. He labored in their midst, bilge of the gospel they received. Yet` he was gone _but a `little time `when, these Other men came more eloquent, manners.

Aristides was one. of their. noblest char- acters, a statesman, a warrior, -a general, -a patriot so disinterested that when he died] he left not enough money to pay for `hisi funeral. Yet he was driven into exile" by the votes of -his fellow-countrymen. When one peasant was asked why he voted that Aristides should be exiled, he replied that he was tired. of_ hearing him praised as Aristides the Just. Demosthenes, their greatest orator, more than once had to flee from his native land, and at last died. by his own hand in exile. In our dayi Venizelos. the one outstanding statesman Greece has produced in centuries, has suf- fered the same injustice at the hands of the , people he served so well. They drove him into exile, and called back that fool king, Constantine. who has brought his countrv to" its" present degradation and ruin.
