The hope Of many persons
that humanity will "get back
to the time when we will live
In the culture and civilization
OF the past, Is a forlorn hope
indeed. The program OF the
Creator is ohviouslyy perpe-
tual, eternal progress toward
perfection, and we are His
instruments for the purpose
of bringing to perfection this
unit Of Ills Universe on which
we dwell, for subduing it, and
which we call in our language
the earth.
We can avoid such a lot Of
complaining about things if
we realize that the Omnipo-
tent is doing EVERYTHING
ha Is done, and doing all hings
WELL. Cease to resent the
marching on OF time, and the
greater excellence Of the pre-
sent day ypeyrformers. We
have trod the blazed trail Of
our ancestors. Each genera
ton can take advantage OF
the knowledge cleaned from
the Fountain of Truth by theil
ancestors. No man, no group
OF men can even delay Hi
\ progf;n m.
True, there are some whs
seem to be trying to keep thu
clock back, but He is supreme
and will separate the wheat
