SUN STUDIES
INSPIRE LOVE
By Hugh J. P ru e tt
Many of the greatest blessings
to which the hum an race is heir
»«‘‘•ms so common to us that we
sim ply take them for granted
and never feel a sense of gratitude
or even trhink alx»ut them. Hut
should we deprive of them our
condition would bi* woeful.
Life on our earth would net
lx- possible without the light and
heat of the sun Should this flow
of energy across interplanetary
space suddenly cease, our terro r
would surely be eaqual to th at
deplicted in Lord Byron’s tragic
poem “P alkness." This s ta rts : "I
had a dream . . the bright sun
w as extinguished . . . and th<
ley earth swung blind and black
ening the moonless air." Th<
p o e tt’s dream had "palces of
I h
crow ned kings, the huts . ..
burnt for bvm'omt . .
When
everything was consumed, “all
was black.*’ Even “w ar
w as no more."
The worsip of prim itive man
hum bly bowing bofore the glory
of the rising sun can hardly
seem a useles form of praise.
W e sstill have our all-powerful
tu n , and surely it cannot be ex
trem ely sinful to accord to it a
certain degree of adoration.
