Of the several fields of scientific re
search to the ban on teaching the
evolutionary theory. The branches
of science represented included ceol-

embryology, agriculture and educa

research work for Johns Hopkins
' university:
"Intelligent teaching of biological
science is impossible if the estab
lished fait of evolution is omitted.
"(lod's growing revelation of Hlnt
. self to the human log cauuot be
realized without recognition of the
evolutionary method He has chosen.
"Teaching in any field thai deals
with' living things is disgracefully,
yes. criminally inadequate if it omits
emphasis upon evolution.
"The fact of evolution of man.
of all living things, of the earth, of
the sun. of the stars- is as fully
established as the fact that the earth
revolves around the sun. Change,
growth, evolution is fundamental, a
pivotal truth in all nature.
Theory Not Absolute
"There is great uncertainty as to
the method by which evolution has
been brought about. None of this
has any varying upon the question of
Coil as creator of the universe. It Is
only a mutter of the method he has
chosen in the creation whether by
Immediate fiat or by gradual growth.
This evidence is overwhelming that
the latter was and Is His method.
"There Is no conflict between the
Bible and the fact of evolution. The
llternllst Interpretation of the Bible
in not only puerile, it is insulting.
both to God and human intelligence.
"The fundamentalist would do
much worse than insult Cod. He
would shut man's mind to Cod's ever
growing revelation of Himself to the
human soul. He teaches that Cod's
revelation of himself was completed
long ago, ceased to unfold his mind
to men in new revelation."
Dr. W. D. Curtis, zoologist. Uni
versity of Missouri:
"The past history of events,
whether of human or animal origins.
Is subject matter fdr scientific in
quiry and the answer of science is
evolution. The very great antiquity
of man, the existence at an earlier
period of man like beings, intermedi
ate between man and other pri
mates, together with the fuels of
man's anatomy, his embryology, his
physical reactions, even his mental
ity, all point to his bodily kinship
with thi' rest of living nature.
"It is not that man came from
monkey, but that man. monkey and
ape all came front a common ances
try millions of years ago.
"Evolution has become generally
accepted by the intellectually compe
tent who have taken the trouble to
inform themselves with an open
mind.
"The principle of evolution stands
in the tlKal rank among the natural

cability but in the degree of Its va

do other laws of nature.
"The evidences upon which the
law of gruylly Is based are no less
Indirect than those supporting the
principles of ' volution.
"In the field of physical chemistry
we had first the molecular theory,
then the atomic theory, then the
Olttlc theory and govt the electron
theory. Kach of these has appeared
in direct response to the necessity of
explaining new sets of tacts and num.
'of them is so well founded as (ho
I theory of evolution.
"No one has ever seen a molecule,
on atom, an Ion. or an electron. The
; existence of unit the properties of
those entitles have been deduced from
I the behaviours of varehvinieal sub
glances when subjected to expert
i mentations.
j "The evolution theory has beer
tried and tested In every conceivable
iwny for considerably over half a eon
titty. Vast numbers ot biological
facts, have been examined in the light
i of this priuciple anil w ithout a -ingle
I exception they huve been entirely
i compatible with it.
I " Anthropology reveals the f.a t that
IgjMtn closely resembles certain meni-
hers of animal worlds in every bone
and organ of his body". There arc
differences hut they are dltferenis i
of degree rather than of kind. These
antmaii most closely resembling ma-:
are the anthropoid apes. While thej
are similar, yet it is evident that
man's line of descent is not through
'any of these anthropoids. It does
appear, however, that man and the
.other primates have a common pre
' cursor.
"Anthropologists accept evolution
lag the most satisfactory explanation
of the observed facts relating to the
universe, to our world and to iill
1 life on It."
