Most folks seem to think that the scientists are not pay ing enough attention to what God is popularly supposed to have done in regard to originating life Prof. Schaefer gave God no credit at all. He thinks life is only a chemical action; that, in a swamp, sometime, some where, a little salts, potassium, phosphorous, water, and some other chemicals happened to get together, that there was a slight stirring, a movements and life began Even nowy he thinks, if will only watch the swamps carefully enotigh, it is not impdssible that they will see new life being created By new life he does not mean the life that a parent passes on to a child, but brand new life, that has never existed before It doesn't seem to us that the scientists are really leaving God out of it. Even if they do discover that life is only a chemical action, can they tell us who made the chemicals, and e law these chemicals are converted into a mother, with be in her arm?

She unconscious of the world of grown-ups. She is happy, and, being happy, she hums. Perhaps you are trying to read some exposition of the tariff or some other intricate subject, as analyzed in a speech reported in your paper. Perhaps the little girl distracts your attention. But—let her hum! Don’t for all the world disturb her. She is enjoying that which soon she will never enjoy again—freedom from care. After a bit she will be a merry school girl, but there will always be in the distance the worry about tomorrow's lessons.
