Foolish Believers Still Continue to Praise
a Revengeful God for Committing
Wicked Act.
(By George 4. Sly.)

Wy ocoiSC oiyJ
I'm the Book of Genesis, which was writ
ten by Ezra after the return from Baby
lon. there are two different accounts of a
food mixed together. One is the Jehovls-
tic account commencing with verse of
chapter g. Then the Elohistic account
commences with verse 9, and continues to
the end of the chapter.
Then the Jehovistic commences chapter
7 and goes to verse Z; then the Elohistic
to verse 20, chapter 8; then Jehovistic to
the end of the chapter. Elohistic comment
ces chapter 9, and goes to verse 10; then
,Jehovistic to verse 2S then the account
ends with the Eohisic contained in verses
% and 20.
In the Elohstic account everything is
by "twos', and in the Jehovistic they are
by "sevens.
"And God saw that the wickedness of
man was great in the earth" Then it was
God 5 fault not man s, for it was just as
easy to make man always good. "And
the Lord said, l will destroy man whom
| have created from the face of the earth,
both man and beast, and the creeping
things, and the fowls of the air; for it re-
penteth me that | have made them. -
Gen. 81. Who is foolish enough to be-
lieve that the Lord did something that he
afterwards repented, and that he destroyed
the beasts, creeping things, and fowls, be-
cause man was wicked?
If he did, then it was IA very wicked
thing for God to do.

Then God promises not to cut off any
more by the waters of food (Gen. 9:ll,)
and made the first rainbow as token.
Gen. 9:13)
After that great event, Noah celebrated
his miraculous deliverance by getting
beastly drunk and going to sleep naked.
(Gen. 9:21) When he awoke he cursed
his grandchild Canaan.

1t is rather curious that the ancient
Egyptians had no legend of food. They
were building the great pyramids at that
time, according to Bible chronology and
Egyptian history. Ezra could not have
received the accounts from them.
Then from where did Ezra get his two
accounts of the flood? 1t must have been

The Meaning of Electrical Terms.

~%~~NN'NN'"
Although everyone is familiar with the prac-
teal uses of electricity no one knows what lis
in itself and few know the exact meaning OF
terms frequently seen in print. The most COM
mon term in use is the volt" and yet if the
man on the street were asked definition OF it
he would probably be unable to explain.
Every time you see trolley car run you
know that current of electricity is conveyed
to the reverse dynamo under the car which
sets it in motion. But few know that there are
three factors involved in this conversion OF
electricity into motion.
One of these is the pressure expressed In volts
which causes the current to flow; another is
the resistance or opposition offered by the cir
cult to the flow which is expressed in ohms
the last is the current strength or volume, ex-
pressed in amperes which is maintained in the
circuit as result of the pressure overcoming
the resistance.
The ohm is named in honor of George Simon
Ohm, a distinguished German electrician. The
volt is named after the Italian scientist, Volyta.
The ampere is named after the French scien-
fist, Ampere.
The unit of current is called the ampere.
The unit of electrical pressure or electromotlve
force is called the volt. The unit OF resistance
ia called the ohm. The unit of electric power
is the yolt-ampere and this is called the watt
Seven hundred and forty-six watts per hour
equal to one horsepower. The unit OF energy
the product of electric power and umers
called the ioule, but this unit is TOO small Io5
practical purposes and the kilowat-hourl IS useo
instead. The kilowat-hour is the WORK done
bv thousand watts working for one hour.
