Hawaiian rice TO be superior in fla

Il personally visited the rice-grow-

Shat, "for the purpose OF determining
the status of rice cultivation in the

have convinced me that rice grown in

however, the larger and ionger-grain-

greatly inferior to Hawaiian rice.
"The only advantage possessed by

With regard tG the available supply

that his surveys OF Texas and Louisi-

The Honolulan gave IL as his opin.

conditions and the lack OF great
stretches of level land In the islands
prevents Hawaii rice growers from
producing en- the same scale az plant

that the superior quality OF the is

less, empty. Their was neither
mountains or valleys. trees nor
shrubs. rivers nor oceans, but
the Earth was. How long be.

The first thing that we shall
notice is the fact that the Genisis
account does teach US. just how
and when the earth was formed,
this then without anything else,
will set aside the absurd teach
ings of thc Photo Dramas and
cannot help but show it up as

if the Genesis account does show
up the formation of the earth,
then we learn the theory itself
ia baised upon nothing and must

For a thousand years in my

Here again we have thousand

Now dear readers, do not
blame US tor setting forth
the truth against such a monkey
show as is set up bv the photo
drama by a man who claims to
be a minister of God. There are
many of our readers who will
not know what the photo drama
of creation means. II ia a lot of
photos put up to show by pass
ing pictures on the creation of
man, This is one of the most
absurd representations that can
be placed before the human fam.
lily. Like the serpent heguiling
Eve, it is true that it was the old
serpent the devil hut we repeat
he did not come in the foe IN of
\ snake as represented BY man
in the photo drama.
He came in the form Of man,
that is the devil came to Eve in
| the heart of a created man. One
who was the decendent of the
man who had been created male
and female on the sixth day.
And after thousand years
had expired, God. formed an
other man and placed him in the
garden. At this time the devil hat
been cast out of heaven, he comes
to the woman Eve, who had beer
formed from rib, for the formed
man, and deceived Eve. Here il
where Eve vas deceived; not BY
