GOVERNMENT AND SCIENCE 221 



cultural knowledge and study and the growth of villages, towns 

 and cities slowly came out of the civilisation of the South of 

 Asia, and the Mediterranean basin, as the Mongolian children 

 of Cain grew and multiplied ; while through the more northern 

 portions of the prehistoric world, the Aryan or Alpine races 

 were at the same time evolving, slightly at a slower rate, 

 another form of civilisation in the patriarchal form of hordes 

 and clans of nomadic shepherds, who were to evolve a higher 

 order of psychical civilisation, by their pastoral life which 

 kept them in closer touch with nature, which is Destined as 

 the world progresses to evolve the higher mysteries of religious 

 belief and thereafter, the more advanced forms of governments, 

 amongst the children of Abel who were shepherds and such 

 as dwelt in tents, so the Bible informs us. 



This occupied anywhere between one thousand and one 

 hundred thousand years B.C., which is the day of Religion, 

 or the Tenth Day of Evolution. During the latter part of 

 this hundred thousand years the early conception and birth of 

 Government is slowly coming into existence, and we will not 

 be far out in our estimate if we allot the period of the Eleventh 

 Day of Government a position in chronology somewhere be- 

 tween twenty thousand and twenty-five thousand years B.C., to 

 seventeen thousand years A.D. So far have these early forms 

 of Government advanced that we find that somewhere between 

 five and ten thousand years before Christ, the kings and rulers 

 begin to call in Science to their aid ; and I do not think we will 

 be far wrong if we allot from the year 5000 B.C. to 4000 A.D. as 

 the commencement of the day of Science, for the reader must 

 remember that throughout all creation there are after the third 

 day always three stages or days of creation being evolved con- 

 currently, each one step in advance of the other. Then about the 

 period of between 2000 and 4000 years B.C. the infant science 

 has started to evolve the day of Commerce which is now fast 

 approaching in its full strength and manhood. Subsequently 

 about the year 1500 B.C. the intermingling of the Aryan and 

 Mongolian races as the former descend from the north and 

 conquer their more advanced brethren, the children of Cain, 

 they give birth by this marriage of races to the golden-haired 

 child of Invention, and together these three children of Religion 

 and Government set to work to conquer the world of matter 

 throughout this, the Fourteenth Day of Creation, in which we
