SOME POOR BLIND FOLKS HAVE
NEVER SEEN A MIRACLE

Here is an important distinction
that many people overlook. God
made the world; but he does not make
your world.
He provides the raw materials, and
out of them every man selects what
he wants and builds an individual
world fo.. himself.
The fool looks over the wealth Of
material provided, and selects a few
plates Of ham and eggs, few pair
of trousers, few dollar bils-and is
satisfied.
The wise man builds mis- world out
of wonderful sunsets, and thrilling
expo fences. and the song of the
stars, and romance and miracles.
Noting wonderful ever happens
in the life of fool.
A primrose oy rivers brim
A yellow prim ose is to him,
And it is nothing more.
An electric light is simply an cleo
trio light; telephone is only a tele-
phone-nothing unusual at all.
But the wise man never ceases to
wonder how a tiny speck of seed,
apparently dead and buried, can pro-
duce a beautiful yellow flower. He
never lifts a telephone receiver or
switches on an electric light without
a certain feeling Of awe.
And to think what a miracle it is,
this Harvesting of electricity to the
service of man!
Who, unless his sence of awe had
grown blunt through constant fam
iliarity, would believe it?

and brought il down to earth. For
that crime the gods chained him to
lonely rock and sent a huge bird to
feed upon his vitals. Each night the
wound healed and each day it was
torn open again.
That was the punishment of the
man who dared to wrest away the
richest treasure of the gods.
But fire-the treasure of the COS

daily life; we scorn it.
