the creation Of the world are clearly
seen being understood by the things
that are made. even His eternal pow
or and deity; so that they are without
excuse" DR.. Brown said in part:
God has so constructed this world
as 10 make It fit school house for
the education and instruction OF His
people. A building should be adapted
to the purposes for which 1t Is to be

make n good school house. A school
house would not make good office
building. God has so constructed this
world that no intelligent man or wo-
man can live in It without learning
some of the great lessons he has pur-
posed that we should learn and know
Even the Heavens declare the glory
OF God and the firmament showeth
forth his handiwork'
