that the Bible account of the starting
of the human race and the evolution
list account of the starting of the hu-
man race are the same accounts, he
makes an appalling misrepresentation.
Prefer, If you will, Darwin's Origin
OF the Species" to the Book of Genesis,
but know you are an INTEL. As for
myself, as Herbert Spencer was not
present at the creation and the Lord
Almighty was present, prefer to take
the divine account as TO what really
occurred on that occasion. To show
that this evolution is only an attempt
TO eject God and to postpone Him, and
to put Him clear out of reach, ] ask a
question or two. The baboon made
the man and the wolf made the
baboon, and the reptile made the
quadruped. and the fish made the rep
tile, and the tadpole made the fish,
and the primal germ mad the tadpole.

emphatically say God made it"
The nearest to direct answer is
that made by Herbert Spencer in
which he says it was made by the
great "unknowable mystery" But
here comes Huxley with cup of pro-
toplasm to explain the thing. This
protoplasm. he says, is primal life

away back in the ages was started.
