The People’s Voice - - Vision Land. Dec. 28. (Special to .Daily Democrat)— Since the year 1924 in so near ut hand, the merchants . j of our city are preparing to Invoice , their various stoc ks of goods, In order ! that they may enter next years busl I nesn with a better prospective. Not ' having a stock of our own we enter 1 tained ourselves by looking over our Museum. We were greatly Impressed by the collection of natural, scientific and many other curiosities that indicated the great highway over which the human race has traveled p P to the present day. There were plenty of evidence of the prehistoric ages, stone age, iron age and finally the present age which is so vital to us. I ( The human race has made a mighty stride forward during the Inst hundred years and has plunged In to the phe r nomena of Art, Science, and Religion. The l on-rush has been so confusing > that many of our brightest minds have , differed ns to the propellng force. I Finance, science and religion have . had a great influence and many men i In the past have predicted that when I science reaches Its highest of perfec- . tlon It would help finance and blot out f religion. Science has produced Its i knowledge of gravitation, electricity . art and many other accomplishments > but has not run counter to religion, i Indeed, they seen to run parallel only , on different planes. Both came up I through the ages and are so closely related that one Illuminates the other t and troth point to the one unseen power. For instance, if you Install one of our electrical generators any where 1 a. in the world that something we call f electricity can lie generated. No In-1 | dividual, nor group of individuals have I relationship to it. I So ar as science is concerned It Is I a universal force; it always ha . been I and always jwill lie so far as man is I concerned. The power of gravitation. I the force of electricity, the internal I,forces of the earth, the power of the I wind and the heat of the sun, and that I mighty power that holds the plants in I their orbits are all beyond man. These l| forces are generally considered materI ial. II Then there are the spiritual forces I that have been in or have been made ■ 'manifest In man for ages. Over six I thousand years B. C. one of the great I Hindu Pagans said "The Soul is only a I body effervessent e like the foam of I Peer" The human race during every I age has felt this spirtual phenomenon. I They have tried to express this feeling I by many forms of worship that conI formed to their mental state of dev**I loptncnl The Pagan would never C have said what he did he had been a I scientest. I The visible now is only an evidence “ of the invisible. The jugdment of the r human race is not always g<ssl as deI'monstrated during the last great war. I The rivilixed nations disregarded their I religious teachings and restored to a* I I <-nce for protection and nearly destroy led cfvUigathm They are now paying I the penalty. Our world problems an* I great and will require something more I potent than science If We ever reach I a solution. The earth contains about one hil I lion six hundred million people. Tills | number embraces about one hundred I slxty lwo million Protestants, two him I dred seventy-two million Catholic, one I hundred twenty million Orthodox I Greek "'atholies and a few million I Jews. The other billion forty-two mH I lion are non-Chriatlun: or In other I words one third of the world is t'hrlst I lan und the other two thirds pagan. I We are standing on the brink of migh I ty events. Commerce, politics and sei I ence have tied the world so close to I getlu-r that the radio can circle the I glolie with the human voice. A cannon II shot can send a tremor through fin I ance n nd effect the markets of the I; world If Is up to the human race to ||find the nil to pour on the trough* I waters of clvlliMtlon | The liiiddhista. .Mohann>-duns, Hind l|ti» and many other* are beginning tn Ijrwognlre the altruism of Christianity.
