Genesis, 1.1-2-7 Golden text—In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. —Genesis, 1.1 In our study last week we had a prophecy of the future fellowship of th: Christians with their risen Lord. We turn Sam that view of coming ex- periences to consiser the beginning of all life. Our lessons for the next three months are from the most ancient specimen of human literature. Genesis far outranks in age the papyrus rolls of Egypt, the Vedic hyrns of India and the Zenda-avesta of Persia. Although it was written centuries ago. for the purpose of giving a spiritual interpreta- tion of the origin of the universe, last week at Harvard University the leading scientists of our age took a position in favor of the Biblical record of creation The origin of the universe is more than a secular and scientific problem: it is a spiritual quection, for it strikes at the very roots of religion as well as sclence. When _ rightly interpreted. nothing in the Biblical rccord of th creation will be antagonistic to scientif truth when both are properly under- %00 and interpreted The opening statement of the Bible is an answer to the question of man through all ages and races concerninz the origin of matter. Scattered among the races and countries we find tradi- tions that have been handed down from generation to generation that harmon- ize with the teachings of our lesson. Genesis lays enphasis upon the spir- itual side of creation, and was written as a book of religion rather than a book of science, yet leaders in the scientific field today find the teachings enunci- ated in this ancient volume harmoniz- ing with the very latest scientific truths. One of the research directors of the bration of the holy communion and the | General Electric Co. expresses his con- people’s evensong, will be conducted by, viction: “One cannot intimately view Canon John W.

Two services will be held every day during the week with celebration of the holy communion at 7:30 am. and evening prayer at 4 p.m. There will be an additional celebration Thursday of the holy communion at 9:30 a.m. REV.

SPECIAL MUSIC PLANNED AT NINTH STREET CHURCH of the that is at the bottom of things.” God in Creation. Three times in the portion assigned for our study we find it reccrded that God “created.” The other parts of the lesson say that He “made.” “Created” connects the pre-creation period of nothing to the post-creation period of the universe. We recognize that it Is axiomatic that every cause must have an effect. In the simple, exhaustive and majestic statement of the opening words of the Bible we are brought face to face with God as the Creatr. We are informed that He created matter We are told how He created life, and finally how He created spirit. No scientist or philosopher has ever given an explanation of the origin of matter. life and spirit that surpasses that of Genesis. In fact, science has no ex- planation that is satisfactory for the origin of matter, life and spirit, aside from that taught us in our lesson. ‘The story of creation and the develop- ment of God's plan reveals the perfec- tion of His program and the power of the Almighty. Many modern sciences have been built up through & study of His marvelous works that are revealed in connection with creation. Accepting the miracle of creation requires the exercise of faith. Once we recognize God in the first of all miracles, all the later miracles of the incarnation, resur- BAPTIST SERMON SERIES T0 BEGIN “Highways to Happier Living” General Subject of Rev. C. B.

Tbe record, according to Prof. Dana of Yale University, is therefore pro- foundly philosophical in the scheme of creation which it presents. It is both true and divine. The Creation of Man. In the fullness of time God deter- mined to create man, who should be made in His own image. It is not in his physical development that man is made in the likeness of God, but in his spiritual life. God is a splm. and when He breathed into man's nostrils the breath of life man became a living soul endowed with the wer of feeling, thought and will, so that he could com- municate and be like God. Having created man, He then gave woman an equality with man, and placed her by his side as a helprate for him, filled with the same dignity, power and rights of man. He instituted the family and gave them the privilege of subduing the earth and having dominion over it. In that order the foundation of human history and the progress of civilization was evolved The world was made for man and man was made to occupy it, con- trol it and to glorify God.

It struck four faint chimes, Martin took the plunge. “What I wanted to say is that I have got to marry your daughter.” “One moment. Which of them do you mean?"” asked Herr Lyssenhop. Ma; see. So this one is May?" said Tat. Inspecting the girl in the leather coat at the door “So he has got to marry you. Have you got to marry him?"” “Yes. Absolutely.” Herr Lyssenhop looked at his finger- nails. So far he had conducted the conversation half humorously. Now he became a shade more serious. “My dear Herr Heil" he said, "I don’t want you to misunderstand me. I am not a tyrannical stage father, and my girls do pretty well what they like ‘Well, look here. If I had a son, the girls might marry whom they pleased and do as they flked. But as I have only this pair of girls, it is a very im- portant matter whom they bring along. ‘The continuance of the family is in- volved—and, in fact, everything. I have, as you may know, a life's work— my engineering works, the Bewamag. May could tell you better than I what | this means. She has been of great help to me in it since she was‘19. In so far, then, as it means that my future son- 1 business, I have the right to a say in the matter. Good looks and all that takes a woman's fancy simply don't count there. Do you agree, May?" “Certainly, Tat.” “Good! Then just tell what induce- ments you have to offer. There is no need to be modest about it.” Martin looked down at his feet. He Wwas very conscious of his old cotton shorts and washed-out flannel shirt. His sweater had gone with Anika. “I have good health,” he said in a knew, that his interest was aroused And now he =ank into reflection, “Listen, Herr Heill,” he said. “You must not mind what 1 am going to say I am going to be perfectly frank. I should have preferred my girls to choose |men of means. Girls like mine. the daughters of old Lyssenhop, naturally run the risk of being married for their money. And the risk is less when the man himself has me: and has no need to marry for mon: 1t is less, I say, but it is not excluded. You see. my dear Herr Heill, a man in my position must be a little on his guard. He would be a fool otherwise. I have been always too little on my guard, much too little. If I were to tell you all that can happen—even to one of us case-hardened men of the world and among the best sort of people—but I won't talk of all that.” He glanced uneasily at May, who glanced back with a twinkle in her eyes they both thought of the count and countess, and he flushed red beneath his smooth gray hair. Then he said hurriedly and with | & slight irritability: “So I ask myself, Must this young Dr. Heil be accepted right away? Is he to have May at once and be old Lyssenhop’s son-in-law? Or wouldn't it be better for a start if he were given some subordinate post, an appointment that might eventually lead on to something better—within limits, of course.” “Tat, I think you ashamed of yoursel the door. Martin, who did not immedi- ately see the snag in Herr Lyssenhop’s proposition, opened his mouth too soon. “It would suit me down to the ground to be given a post.” he said. “I'm not unreasonable. 1 have never thought much of money. That is not my way. ."” “A great mistake. Everyone has to think of money. How can you marry May if you have no money?” Suddenly Martin's patience and self- control gave out. He struck the table and sprang to his feet. “There you are,” he cried out to May. “‘Didn’t 1 tell you I would not go as & beggar to vour Tat? And look at me now! What am I to say to him? ‘Speak to Tat'—well, here’s the result. A lot of use speaking to him!' He does not believe in me—and I don't biame him!

I have discovered the non-inflammable film,” Martin said, making a fresh start. Tat blew a puff of cigar smoke and did not seem to be impressed. ““There’s one already,” was all he said.

It had been tried with acetyleellulose, with viscose film and with gelatin film. They were all too expensive. Not one of them was the right thing. But Martin had it.
