dices Of our immortal souls, upon the
firm foundation of righteousness and
Gods salvation"
Again, Solomon rortrays to us the
peculiar traits of the locusts, always
moving in bands, united, yet without
a king or leader. How valuable Is the
lesson to be derived from this, the
lesson of unity and conformity An
army can only be an army as 1t
knows the laws of unity so should
we be united in one great army,
sweeping the world in great reform -
Progression" said the speaker,
plant life came, then followed the
creation of the lower animal life, and
then placed in dominion over all these
came man himself"
"How difficult II Is for our minds
to compass the vastness of this great
universe, those vast bodies and planets
each moving In the orbit of Gods fix
ed law; yet how much more wonder
full than all these, are our own bodies
and intellects moving Independently
of God himself-a world moving and
throbbing with life and working out
its own souls destiny.-
with the wantop and foolish de-
struction of the plant and animal
life by man comes the tragedy of the
field and forest. Over all this world
man has been placed in dominion, not
to destroy but to enjoy, not to tear
down, but to build up and protect"
"The lesson we may learn from the
animal and nature IL first, to obey the
laws of nature; second, to learn ad-
miration for God and his creative
power; third, to learn the lesson OF
sympathy, and last to show more
mercy to animals and all animal life.
All are creatures of God, they are to
serve us and him.
by this study we leiminate all that
Is cruel and antagonistic In our ma
lures, and acquire q feeling of sweet
humanity toward our fellow man."
