Experiments conducted at O.A.C.
for more than half a .century in

Proper care and management is
essential to the successful .raising
of baby chicks. They should have
a generous supply of pure water al
ways available. Drinking vessels
harbor germs aud 'often the water
will become contaminated and may
spread disease through the entire
flock. Then there is the danger of
some infected chicks in every hatch,
danger of diarrhoea in some form
or other, loose bowel and intestinal
trouble. Don't permit a few chicks
to infect your entire flocx.

There is no other hook in the world
like Genesis. It was written by
Moses some 2,500 years after the
earliest events it records; Moses
could never have written it except
for the. supernatural inspiration and
revelation given to him-for this by
the Holy 'Spirit of God.
Some people say the first chapter
of Genesis with its story of creation
is a beautiful poem. It is indeed
literature of divine beauty, such a
poem as only God could write; but
it is also both' history and science
■of inerrant accuracy. Let us not be
deceived by the 'glib, phrase so pop
ular in certain quarters. “The Bible
is not a book of science.” It is true
that tlie Bible was not written as a
scientific treatise; but it is also true
that whenever the Bible touches on
matters of science it speak's with an
authority,
that mere

Nothing
words could have given us the state-'
ly, majestic first verse .of the Bible: |
“In the beginning (God created the
heaven and the earth.” A little
child‘can understand that, and the’
profoundest human intellect this
world has ever known could not im-"
prove on it or add to it.
The next verse tells us: “And the
earth was without form, and void;
and darkness was upon the face of
the deep." The literal meanings of
these words “clearly indicate that
the earth had undergone a catacly
smic change as the result of a di
vine judgment.” Many sound Bible
students believe that other Scrip
tures show that between the first
and second verses -of Genesis occurr
ed a terrific catastrophe, occasioned
by the rebellion and fall of Lucifer,
the greatest and highest of angels,
as indicated in .such passages as Jer
emiah 4:23-26, Isaiah 14:9-14, 24:1,
45:18; Ezekiel 18:12-15.

Dr. Alvin E. B611 wrote some years
ago in his articles in The Globe on
the books of the Bible: “Instead of
contradicting true .science. Genesis
goes beyond the furthest reaches of
science, and bridges the three great
gaps which science and evolution
cannot bridge, namely, the origin of
manna, the origin of animal life and
the origin of man. The significant
words, ‘God created,’ stand at each
of these three verses in Genesis 1:1,
21, 27, at the very places where the
evolutionist is .put to confusion in
his search for a missing link.’
Here are the divine acts of res
toration or creation in tlm six flays
of tfois first week:
First day—Light, divided from
darkness, making Day-and Night.
-■md dny—(Waters above divid-
cun waters beneath by a firma-
ment called Heaven.
Third Day—Waters under the
Heaven gathered together so that
dry land apeared, called Earth, the
waters being called Seas; and the
earth yielding grass, seed,
trees.
Fourth day — Lights in
Heaven, and two great lights,
and moon and stars,
Fifth day-—Now -comes the second
actual creative act, animal life; fish
in the sea and fowls in the air, and
living creatures on earth.
Sixth day—'God’s supreme creative
act. “So God created 'man in His
own image; in the image of God
created He him; male and female
created He them,’’
Evolution aud the first chapter ;of
Genesis cannot possibly foe reconcil
ed. Therefore, evolution, man’s
hypothesis, is wrong. One species
never evolutes into another species;
the lower cannot become the higher
by any natural growth, Giod’s word,
“after His kind,” gives the lie to
evolution. “Herb yielding seed af-’
ter his kind, and the tree yielding
fruit, whose seed was in itself -after
his kind"; aud so the inerrant re
cord goes on, the expression “after
Iris kind,” occurring ten times in
this brief chapter—three times con
cerning plant life, and -seven times
concerning animal life. ' '
