the BATTLES We're over ! never crossed
the fields in the direction where I had

even when we are in the line Of duty,
has awful results. How much more
terrible is it for one to look upon the

So-and-soF once asked my father
he never comes around tho house as
is my enemy. loaned him some mon
ey. lie would not pay me back How

But again learn that our first an
ccstors sought other refugees besides
leaf and fowv. and clinging vine and
tree trunk and bush II is true that
! the tropical forests are so dense that
/ they make excellent hiding places Sir

wild beasts. tells us that the Ccylon
! mnCles in places are SO impenctrable
! TO the eye that the keenest and most
/ experienced hunters may sometimes be
| unable 10 distinguish the wounded
/ elephantine monster only Il few yards
away though tho valleys and the
mountain sides may be thunderous
! with tho hellsUinys Of the diving wild
! beast But sin never tries to cover up
/ sin 10y the curtain Of leaf alone. Sin
always tries TO conceal sin behind the
/ Lulwarks of other sins Thus, when
/ Adam and Eve bid themselves from
the presence Of God in the garden. they
tried TO conceal their SIR with the sin
Of falsity. They pretended they did
not hear God when he called. They
tried 10 conceal sin by saving. The
reason we have not answered thee. O
God. is because we were unclothed and
dare not appear before thee naked, as
thou didst create us" They tried Ia
conceal sin in exactly the same way
rs thousands and tens OF thousands of
living men try to conceal sin with sin

Adam and Eve concealed themselves
