Truth INTERCHANGEABLE

The world does not change in the masses of it's

birth. The flowers that gemmed the fields and the
forests long before this continent was discovered
now bloom the in their season. The

luster; the bow that God placed in the heavens
after the flood is there after every storm to
of Gods eternal promise made in the long ago.
Nature is the same. For her forces
have been generated. The earth still turns on it's
axis and performs her functions perfectly and
accurately that the seasons come with all the pre-

and help man be what God intended him to be.

of the poor decorated nicely bribed the artists
and art declined again. Instead of the works of the
virgin and the god-like child there appeared the
works of RIGHTEOUSNESS and again humanity frowned
on the work of the artists. Homer got his taste for
his work as he wandered from place to place paying
