 Most prominent among these theo- rists is the vegetarian who insists that meat was never intended for the hu- man stomach, despite the fact that his ancestors for 6,00O years or more, used 1t as their principal article of diet; and the old patriarchs of Biblical History who lived to prodigious old ages. were meat eaters. All of the great nations of history have been users of meat, and all of tine most powerful and advanced countries of today employ it extensively in their dietaries, and their superior develop ment and high degree of civilization are In strong and striking contrast to the decadent and degenerate nations of Asia and the tropics, whose inhabi- tants are vegetarians
