"We affirm again tliat for slieer 

 cowardice and incapacity the advocates 

 of evolution have never been equalled; 

 and it becomes increasingly evident 

 that their philosophy is as bestial in 

 its fruits as in its roots." Christian 

 Fundamentalist, May 1930. 



"Kvolution is the greatest farce ever 

 foisted upon an unsuspecting luiblie. 

 The most frightful insult ever hand- 

 ed to an all-wise Creator since the 

 creation of man. It is the strangest 

 phenomena humanity has to contend 

 with today. A tremendous chain of 

 circumstancial evidence supported by 

 vague analogies and figures of speech. 

 It remains today an erroneous doc- 

 trine, unjjroved and without a shadow 

 of scientific evidence. Notwithstand- 

 ing this, more than 7.5 percent of our 

 educators in leading Universities 

 teach this beastly doctrine." (Rev. 

 Fred Johnston, Jame 1929 Defender. 



"If 1 believed that life ends with 

 death and that there is no punishment 

 after death I would be less apt to 

 tell the truth." Judge Barnhill, in the 

 "Gastonia Case." 



"The king of England will have to 

 order Darwin's remains removed from 

 the abbey, for with the blasting of 

 his theory of the ape origin of man, 

 Darwin is no longer a great man. His 

 fame has been transmuted into infamy 

 by Osborn's Des Moines speech. His 

 "Origin of Species" will have to be 

 recalled and burned, lest future gener- 

 ations revere the ape, now declasse. 

 Replicas of his bust, enshrined in so 

 many museums and halls of fame, 

 will have be taken out to the rub- 

 bish heap. Multiplied millions of text- 

 books, used by our youth the world 

 over in High Schools and Colleges, 

 will have to be junked, for Darwin 

 and his tremendous contribution to 

 science — the ape theory — are now con- 

 signed to limbo by Osborn. " Signs 

 of The Times, Jan. 14, '30. 



IS THE FU>D.\ME>'T {'KUMBLING J 



At the International Convention of 

 the World's Christian fundamentals 

 Association in Los Angeles this June 

 Fundamentalist Wm. B. Riley affirms 

 "That the creative days of Genesis 

 were Aeons, Not Solar Days" in de- 

 ♦ bate against a still more Fundamental 

 Fundamentalist, Harry Rimmer. We're 

 afraid that it's too early to welcome 

 Riley to the ranks of evolution, but 

 invite you to note how our cartoonist, 

 George Wotherspoon, sizes up the 

 sitiration. 



UTY ('ON(ER> 



Some show alarm for family tree, 

 And little for posterity; 

 What worries me far more than past. 

 Is how to break my life long fast. 



I'm more concerned with truth and 



life, 

 Than ignorance and jealous strife; 

 I'd rather from a monkey be. 

 Than have a monkey made of nie.
