man youth in 1879. K,
 An excerpt from this letter read:
 Science has nothing to do with Christ except vague probabilities insofar as the habit of scientific re- search makes a man cautious in admitting evidence. For myself l do not believe that there ever has been any revelation"
 The third indictment against evo- Hutton was that 1t diyerts attention from pressing problems Of great i'm portance 10 trifiing speculation"
 He decried attempts Of evolution fists trying 10 imagine what happen ed in the dim past and also to pry open the door Of the distant future, declaring that the science Of 'hoW 10 live" is the most important of all the sciences. II is desirable 10 know the physical sciences, but it Is neces- sary to know how to live. X"
 Need Heavenly Vision
 While not more than two per cent of our population are college graduates, these, because of enlarged powers, need heavenly vision even more than those less learned, both for their own restraint and to insure society that their enlarged powers will be used for the beneht of Bo' ciety and not against the public welfare
 "Our fourth indictment against the evolutionary hypothesis Is that by paralyzing the hope of reform, Il discourages those who labor for tht improvement of mans condltion,' MT. Bryan said.
 Every upward looking man ol woman seeks to lift the level upol which mankind stands, and the! trust that they will see benet7cen changes during the brief span 0 their own lives" he held.
 Chills Enthusiasm
 "Evolution chills their enthusiasm by substituting aeons for years. l Iobscures all beginnings on the mist of endless ages. It IS represented a cold and heartless process begin ming with time and ending Tttl eternity and acting so slow that evel the rocks cannot preserve a recor' of imaginary changes through Whicl it is credited with having carried a original germ of life that appeare' sometime from somewhere. Its onl program for man is scientific breed ing, a system under which a fe7 : supposedly super-intellects, self-ap pointed, would direct the mating an the movement of the mass Of man kind-an impossible system. "Evolution disputing the mtracl and ignoring the spiritual in life, ha no place for regeneration of the in dividual. It recognizes no cry of re pentance and scoffs at the doctrin that one can be born"
 Would Eliminate Love
 The fifth charge brought was tha of taken seriously and made th
 basis of a philosophy of life (eyolu tion) would eliminate love and carr
 man back 10 struggle of tooth an . claw. The Christians who have d lowed themselves to be deceived 1T to believing that evolution Is bent hcent, or even a rational proces
 have been asscciating with thos . who either do not understand its in ' pICations, or dare not avow thei |, knowledge of these implications.
 The commoner denying that th
 Tennessee anti-evolution law had fl ' origin in bigotry and was trying { l. force any form of religion on any
 hody," said that the majority rathe lis trying to protect itself from th ! effort of an insolent minority { T force religion upon the children TIT S der the guise Of teaching science" y Call Evolution But Guess II Asserting that Christianity we F comes truth from whatever source 't comes. he alluded 10 evolution ss n n ruth; it is merely an hypothesis 1T Is millions of Euesses strung togetl

 r. "The real attack of evolution" NJ e Bryan hold, however, 10 be "n a upon Christianity, but upon religio e the most basic fact in mans exis l. cnce and the most practical thing l. life"
