What Readers Think PARAPHRASE Editor of Tge Telegram: President Roosevelt in he Book of Ages: "Hear me when I call O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me in my distress: have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer. How many are they increased that trouble me! Many there be that riae uo against me, that aay of my soul, there is no help for him in God. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people that have set themselves vgainst me round about Thy blessing is uoon thy reoDle. Selah. "Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? Kings of the earth aet themselves, and rulers take counsel together, saying. Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. The Lord shall have them in derision. Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges. Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Clouds and darknesa are around him. Righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne. My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble hum-ble shall hear thereof, and be glad. "The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor, for he boast-eth boast-eth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth. His 'ways are grievous: tby Judgments are far above out of his sight Let them be tsken in the devices that they have imagined. "Arise. O Lord: lift up Thine hand, forget not the humble. Break Thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till Thou find none. Thou hast beard the desire of the humble; Thou wilt prepare their hearts, and hear to judge the fatherless snd the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress." Psalms 2, 4, 10, 34. 97.
