Biologists have spent years in finding the
track OF 4 birds claw in the new red sand
stone. There is enough of Gods architecture
in snipe's bill or grouse's foot to confound

''Behold the fowls OF the air." SAYS Christ
Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and
though thou set thy nest among the stars,
thence will l Drinr thee down. exclaims

Ezekiel in nv text intimates that Christ is
the cedar and the people from all quarters

Ezekiers time so now-Christ is goodly
cedar and to him are fiving all kinds of peo-
ple-yuung and old, rich and poor: men
high-soarmg as the eagle, those fierce as The
raven. and those gentle as the dove. "All
FOWL of every wing"
