T T SATAN AUTHOR OF EVOLUTION THEORY Pastor Harriman Aims Shaits at Darwin and Other Theorists Continuing his series of discourses in which he is attacking evolution as propounded by so-called scientists, Rev. N. H. Harriman of the People’s church last night offered five proofs to convince his audience that the old- fashioned theory regarding the crea- tion of animal life—that it was given to the world by the Supreme Being— is really the only theory worthy of consideration by those whose cerebral | organs have sufficiently advanced to allow them to do their own thinking. Intermixing ridicule and jest to bring home his points, Pastor Harriman showed that the greatest of evclution- ists, including Darwin, the premier, have expressed uncertainty on the subject and that some of them have returned to belief in the Blble after groping around in the darkness for facts which ghey have not yet found. A digest of Pastor Harriman’'s re- marks follows: “My indictment of evolution has not been made mild for evolution. It has assailed everything sacred in re- vealed religion; invaded the church, the family, and the public school,— ‘belated’ teachers, as Prof. Townsend designates them, still frightening themselves and their pupils with this bugbear. That it is ‘exploded’ and a mere ‘bugbear’ lurking in the shad- ows to pounce out upon the young and the unwary, I have promised to prove. And tonight I begin that proof, following it next Sunday even- ing with further proof; then I shall speak on ‘The Evolution of Evolution,’ and give its strange and hurtful his- tory, and show how it was that so baseless and baneful a system could have taken such a hold upon the world of scholarship and would-be scholarship. “And first, a text from the Old Book that evolution has so long and so successfully assailed. Gen. 1:11, 12 —'And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit, after his kind, whose seed is in itseif, upon the earth: and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree ylelding fruit, whose seed is in itself, after his kind; and God saw that it was good.’ “Here you have the Bible account of creation, up to and through the vegetable kingdom. Later in the nar- rative, animals and man appear in the same way—fresh created from the hand of God, each complete in itself, and each equipped to reproduce its own kind and not some other kind as the evolution theory teaches. Lan- guage could not be more specific. God spake, and it was so; and it was very good in His sight. X Over agalnst this account of the Bible, evolution teaches that things were not created, but just grew, like Topsy; that from an original mass of lifeless matter, whose existence they do not account for, by a power with- in that they do not account for, sud- denly this inert mass began to move and whirl and evolve; and throw off worlds. Then upon one of these worlds, one of the smallest, our earth, this unaccountable ‘force’ suddenly takes the form that we know as ‘life,’ and lo, vegetation begins to be formed, lower forms at first, then more complex, until, through count- less centuries, and after the destruc- tion of millions of intermediate spe- cles, we find the earth covered with the species that have survived. Then animal life appears, evolved from the vegetable, and through other weary aeons the evolution went on there, till at length man appears, evolved from ape, through four-footed crea- tures; they from perhaps thousand- footed things; they through birds; they through fishes; and on back to the first ‘life’ which is nowhere ac- counted for. This is the issue. Which account is correct? The Promised Proofs. “I have promised to prove that evolution has no foundation what- ever in the facts of science, that it is an exploded theory. Listen to some of the proofs, necessarily briefly stat- ed. And let it be understood that in referring to those who believe still in evolution, I impugn no motives.

(Fill This Out and Return to Editor of Bible, and of God, and of man and his redemption. When the wolf as- sails your sheep, you have a right to defend your sheep. When the wolf- dog tears your lambs, you are a poor shepherd if you do not get after the owner of the dog. I know who owns evolution. And I do not love him one bit. And my high calling demands that I fight him. I am doing just that in this series of sermons. And I know what I am doing. “First proof: No evolutionist today, of any reputation, claims that evolu- tion explains either (1) the origin of matter; (2) the origin of force; (3) the origin of the orderly working of force in the universe; (4) the origin of lite; (5) the origin of mind in man; (6) the origin of the moral na- ture in man; (7) or the origin of the spiritual nature in man, which dis- tinguishes him from all other animals as a worshipping animal. No great evolutionist pretends to claim that evolution explains one of these seven great mysteries. There are but two logical explanations: That of the atheistic evolutionist, that matter and force are eternal—though he cannot account for the results that he claims come by natural processes from eter- nal force working upon eternal mat- ter; and the other explanation, that an eternal, uncreated God, spoke them into being by his almighty pow- er. Which explanation is correct? Which is ‘scientific?’ “Second proof: No evolutionist, of any reputation, any longer claims that evolution has proved that ever in the history of the world has one species evolved into another species. They all admit that the claims put forth by evolution that species are so evolved, are wholly without proof. No record of any of the thousands of re- jected species “has ever been foynd, that must have existed and been re- jected as unfit, between species exist- ing at present, in the whole range of existing things, and animals. They have been unable to find any of the ‘missing links’ to span the open gulfs; and they admit it. And if they themselves admit it, do we need fur- ther proof? Darwin himseelf con- fessed toward the end: ‘Geology as- suredly does not reveal any such fine- ly graduated organic chain; and this perhaps is the most obvious and greatest objection to my theory.’ At the same time he sald: ‘I do not pretend that I ever should have sus- pected how poor was the record.’ “Agnssiz asserted that no fewer than sixteen impassible gulfs exist, where old races disappeared and en- tirely new races came into existence, with no discoverable connections be- tween them. DParwin means by his confession: ‘I formed my theory upon the rocks, fossil specimens of the lost spectes that my theory calls for; and I do not find them; and their ab- sence presses heavily on my theory, and is the most obvious and greatest objection to my theory. Agassiz statement means that races do not evolve into other races; but that each new race comes into being by new creation. And that is what the Bible says is the fact. Why not accept what the Bible says, unless there is within us some revolt against revela- tion? Evolutionists Doubtful. “Third proof: Not only have the leading advocates of evolution ad- mitted that it is an unproven theory, but many of them have rejected it altogether somewhat recently. Agas- siz swung back far from its assump- tions. Darwin admitted that he was am not after them at all; my attack is against the great enemy of the greatly confused about it. Fven Prof. Haeckel the man who is said to have the assumption that I should find in ! the Nation’s Service. The Herald) ... day, made damaging admissions. is said to be the only scientist who refuses to admit that evolution i iunproven; yet he says: ‘We grant at ! once that the innermost character of nature is just as little understood by us as it was by Anaximander and Empedocles, 2400 years ago. . . We grant that the essence of substance becomes more mysterious and enig- matic the more deeply we penetrate into the knowledge of its attributes.’ There he has found God, but he will not admit it, nor bow before Him. “Fourth proof: The absurd and ex- travagant guesses and inferences of so-called evolutionists. One of them, on the strength of the discovery of a strange animal found in the Cam- brian region of Africa which could live on land and in water, breathing with lungs on land and with gills in water, puts this forth as ‘scientific:’ ‘This creature, which breathes on land and in the water. is the primi- tive form of the type from which we have grown into what we are— whether we be monkeys or elephants or great statesmen or members of the clergy.’ What a ‘scientific’ state- ment! What a stupendous leap of imagination! A humorist would point out the extraordinary eagerness on the part of some of these so-called ‘Scientists’ to own their poor Tela- tives. “Fifth proof: The time required by the evolution theory for the develop- ment of all these species that have presumably disappeared, is far too long. For instance ,the flylng-fish, | and flying squirrel, and other flying animals, which they claim preve that | | the four-footed animal came from a bird; and that the bird came from a . fish; and a fossil creature that they | call ‘archeoptery’—for shortness, as . the Irishan said—which they say is part reptile and part bird, and there- fore is midway between reptile and | bird, in spite of the fact that already i they have said that the bird came | from a fish—in all these cases, they ! assume that several thousands of species must have existed and dis- appeared between the true fish and the flying fish; and several thousands more between the flying fish and the true bird; and several thousands more between the true bird and the fiying squirrel; and several thousands more between the flylng squirrel and the true four-footed animal. And all this requires billions of vears! And | then, you did not start at the begin- ning; and you have only arrived at four-footed animals' = Doesn’t 1t | He s falsified the facts of embryo life on his famous charts spoken of last Sun- CHAS.

In a message given to the mem- bers of his parish at the South church, yesterday, Rev. George W. C. Hill forcibly and clearly showed the position to be taken by the church during the great international con- flict. Dr. Hill's message was full of patriotism and sound moral advice. It follows: “The South church makes recogni- tion today of the opening of the work of the church year. Never before in its history has this been done under circumstances so momentous and, staggering. And these circumstances make direct and positive and ines- capable challenge to the church. “In the stir and excitement of the! time the serlouw attention is given mostly to the particular elements and incidents of the war. Our young men are going away—already more than seventy have gone—to defend our ‘land and the Iiberties of the world. | A ferment of preparation is on every side.

The religious elements of life must be cleared of all handicaps and ! their utter worth and absolute indis- | pensableness made plain. Wherever { needed there must be a return to sim- ple, unselfish, devoted, sacrificial liv- | ing. The various forces of righteous- | ness must be given a new and unusual | encouragement and support. The i church and society must be ready to | meet the awful conditions that will inevitably follow as a result of the ; war—loosening of the passions, the I defiling of the body and consequent | weakening of conscience, the growth j of the harder feelings and dulling of the finer sensibilities, the breaking I down of faith both in humanity and in God. This must be prepared for with an access of religious faith and . devotion, sane and certain. This is | the work of the church. ; “It is then the great call of the church in this critical hour to set forth in no hesitant terms the one ' Cure God hath given for these ills and the one great Power God hath ordained for establishing and purify- ing and steadying manhood, and for salvaging ‘an imperilled society. “This work is'for us who remain at home, by way of a willing service.
