ETERNAL SUNSHINE 4 5 



mark what the future may have in store for the race. 

 Do you want old age ? Methuselah, Noah, Isaac. 

 Strong men ? Goliath, Samson, Saul. Beautiful 

 women ? Ruth, Rebecca, Esther. Does not David, 

 the man after God's own heart, appeal ? Was not 

 Solomon, the wise, the glorious, the prolific, a superior 

 type ? And, with all reverence be it said, was not the 

 Founder of the Christian religion a solar product ? 



Hotter lands beyond the bounds of Palestine gave to 

 the world men and women whose deeds and influence 

 still astound and stimulate millions of mankind the 

 Queen of Sheba, Cleopatra, Pharaoh the Great, Moses 

 the leader, whom the Lord knew face to face, Joseph 

 the organiser, Mahomet, the benign Buddha, and all 

 the sages, the poets, the historians, the architects of 

 the gorgeous East. May not those who elect to live 

 in lands of high temperature and who are strong in their 

 faith cite apt and illustrious precedents, and make bold 

 to say that none has exercised more influence on the 

 minds and destinies of mankind than those born in the 

 lands of the Sun ?
