Until recent years people didn't \
1 ; realize the value of preserving the I
: forests, birds, flowers, animals and j
fish. They were very wasteful be- j
' cause they didn't realize the value j
of preserving them for the future
; generations. At • our present time
we are trying to be more careful. •
■ Let us go for a walk in the j
'forest. While walking through the;
' forest we come upon a rippling
; stream. We are to rest here for
1 awhile. Let's take a look at the.
1 surroundings. There are many
f beautiful fish darting to and fro in !
; the stream. Do you realize if we I
5 should fish too much, there would j
' be no fish? There are some very j
: j beautiful flowers further up the j
1 stream but don't pick too many or j
the next people who come will not.

" stately trees that are everywhere!

,stroyed, what would we do whenj]
jwe come next time? Look at the ! £
animals darting among the trees. ||
' What would they do if hunters i

'Now that we are tired, let's lie

Why do people kill such workers? !j
Just for sport. Such foolishness, jj.
People who are careless about birds j

! OF DR, W. R. OWEN;
Asheville Pastor Warns A

Civilization.
i 1
| Asheville, April 20.—"The lead
'ers of Russia today will not drink,
I they will not attend dances, or in- (
•dulge in any pastime that hinders
the full use of all their powers in
teaching the world that to own prop- ,
ertv is the chief scourge of man
kind," said Dr. William Russell
' Owen in his sermon at the First
Baptist church on "The Russian
I Revolution Prophecy of Ezekiel,"
Sunday night.
i "In five years, if the Russian pro
gram to industrialize a nation with'
,• American methods of mass produc
tion succeeds, every American indus
i try will be seriously threatened with
I the keenest competition by the So
! Viet Government of Russia."
The highest salaries of expert of
f ficials in the textile industry in Rus-.
| sia is $35.00 per month. Fancy com
paring these overhead charges with
similar leaders in America at $50,000
to SIOO,OOO a year and it is not easy (
to see that there will be serious com
petition in wheat, lumber, rubber,
etc., which Russia can produce even
now cheaper than we can.
With one of the Archbishops, Vie
densky, saying of the church, It ac
quired pomp, power, riches, but lost
its soul," no wonder that Maurice "
Hindus says of Russia, "A whole gen- j
eration is being vigorously reared :
in the belief that religion is a mon- ,
trous unreality." j
Love and Religion Gorse.
Love has gone with its romance. (
Free love and unlimited divorce ; s
rife. Chastity is no longer a badge j
of honor and glory. Divorces are at
the rate of 1.6 to every ten marriages '
"Science, democracy and education
has scorched the life blood out of .
love," the Russia Muzhik avers, and /
family life has been invaded until it j
is the enemy of the Communist
propaganda that ownership of prop
erty and wealth makes man a "put- ;
rid scavenger" upon his fellow man.
The uprooted Russian Republic
and society's ideals blasted, is al
most complete in the Russia of to
day. When they broke with religion
and went over to atheism, ev«rythjn£*
that man holds., .dear went into dis
card. Russia's dream of "No pov- ,
erty, economic equality, no slums, j j
no difference between manual and j
mental effort, equality of sexes, no
national boundaries, mysticisms,
dead; religion dead; prejudice and
superstition dead; a new man and
a new age enthrone is exhilarating
the nation of Russia with marvelous
optimism but it is only staving off
the day when the bloody hand of the
revolution will have to raise itself
single-handed against a united and
threatened world. :
Ezekiel prophecy shows in chapters
35, 36, 37, 38, 39 and perhaps the
Gog and Magog of that book may be
