The penalty aga the race was “Dying thou shalt die’ for mankind has been eking out an existence amidst laborious toil and hardships while man is a dying crea- ture. Man's hope of life lies in the res- urrection of the dead. If it has been necessary to earn one’s bread through. efforts causing “sweat df face,” may we not conclude that la- bor-saving machinery is the fore- runner of a-time when man will not be a dying creature? And as a new government under Christ is prom- ised, may not the casting up of road- whys to facilitate the traveling of automobiles suggest the laying of the foundation of a beter govern- ment in which will be cast up the highway to life upon which human- lity shail be invited to walk? | “The past six thousand years have been years of death and its con- comitants.

If it were established beyond cavil by indisputable/Bible: evidence that the millions who have gone down into the graves during all the past of man’s history were coming back to life during the thousand-year reign of Christ—some to heavenly glory but the masses of mankind to the promised paradisaic conditions when humanity will. have the ‘privi lege of being restored to health und happiness and what a thrill should stir the hearts of the present generation!
