Bible Story of Creation.

Charlton. Ia.-To the Editor: A
writer in The Register some time ago
stated that the Bible taught that the
world was made in six days of
twenty-four hours each, and added
that no one belives that now. This
assertion, calculated to mislead the
unwary, should not be allowed to
pass unchallenged. In regard to
whether anyone believes the twenty
four-hour day theory we have
nothing to say, but wish to say that
theBible teaches no such doctrine.
and it is surprising that an intelli-
gent gentleman in this day and age
should stumble so over the sacred
book. II he had opened his Bible
he could have read that the sun and
moon that were to rule the day and
the night and thus mark the time
that we now call the twenty-four
hour day, were not set as light
bearers to the earth until the fourth
creative day. Then, also this fourth
creative day and the fifth and sixth
also closed just as the first, second
and third had closed. 1t may not
be cut of place to state here what
science has to say about the Bible
record of the creation. Geology "a
science of the nineteenth century, is
in substantial harmony with the
sacred record. James D. Dana and
Arnold Guyot, the two great geolo-
glsts and leading scientists of the
nineteenth century both claim that
the Bible account of the creation is
fully confirmed by the latest findings
of science. The former after giving
in his book on geology an outline OF
the order of the creation as found by
science says: 1.-THE order OF events
in the scripture cosmogony cores
ponds essentially with that which is
given-the record in the Bible is
profoundly philosophical in the
scheme of creation which it presents.
1t is both true and divine. 1t is a
declaration of authorship, both OF
creation anu Lu0 DlU1C, Va IAO 80 -
page of the sacred volume. There
can be no real conflict between the
two books of the great author. Both
are revelations made by him to man
the earlier telling of God-made har-
monies. coming up from the deep
past,-the later teaching mans rela-
tions to his maker and speaking OF
loftier harmonies in the eternal
future"

The usual Thanksgiving day pro-
clamation will be issued from the
White House within few days.
President Wilson told inquirers
that he would follow custom and
designate the last Thursday of the
month, which is November 80. Be
cause the date is close to Christmas,
there was a movement among some
business men to set an earlier day
for Thanksgiving.

Warning Against The Chestnut
Blight.

The Northern Nut Growers Asso-
citation at it's recent annual meeting
formally requested the Secretary of
Agriculture to practically prohibit
the shipment of all chestnut trees
from nurseries in the United States,
except under the direct inspection
of the Department of Agriculture.
This action was taken because a
chestnut blight promises to destroy
practically all the native chestnut
trees of America. This blight has
spread from Long Island to Carolina
and Nebraska, chiefly through ship
ments of chestnut trees from nurs-
cries claiming to be free from the
disease.
Despite this setback, the Northern
Nut Growers Association has much
faith in nuts, and they are offering
many prizes for the best specimens
of nuts of practically all the species
native in the United States north OF
the cotton belt. These prizes run
from SIS to $50. If you happen to
know of any such trees, you will be
aiding the establishment of this new
industry if you will send specimens
of nuts along with description OF
trees to DR.. w. c. Deming, George
town, Conn, Secretary of the Asso-
citation, who will give you the details
of the prizes offered and statement
concerning the value of the speci-
mems you send. An orchard of trees
as good as the best wild hickories,
walnuts, butternuts, shagbarks, pc
cans, hazels, growing in this country
would be more valuable than the
best farm in Illinois.
