 IN THE following article will be found scientific evidence of the great antiquity of the human race, and which all of our readers should know. When we realize that the average man has been millions of years attaining his present intelligence and understanding, it can easily be seen how long it may yet take for him to attain his full maturity, indicated by the pattern given us in the life of Jesus Christ; also how it seems certain that in time every man must grow to that maturity. IN THE following article will be found scientific evidence of the great antiquity of the human race, and which all of our readers should know.

 This should cause many to think of the relative unimportance of the three score years and ten spent by the soul in a so-called lifetime on earth, and of how many thousands of such lifetimes every soul must have spent here. Those of us, however, who have gained any understanding of the purpose of it all, are finding it possible to hasten our so-called evolution, by co-operating with our Higher Selves, by waiting upon and allowing Him to direct all that we do—when it is permitted to us to glimpse what it will be when maturity will be reached.—The EDITOR. This should cause many to think of the relative unimportance of the three score years and ten spent by the soul in a so-called lifetime on earth, and of how many thousands of such lifetimes every soul must have spent here.

 These archeological expeditions work on gigantic scales. They employ as many as 500 native laborers and they dig down 100 feet or wider areas. The soil is literally sifted for skeletons and art objects. Asia Minor and Mesopotamia are important areas because the inhabitants lived in big cities when the peoples of northern Europe were still forest dwellers. These archeological expeditions work on gigantic scales.

-Archeologists dig so deep because civilizations grew one upon the other. At Troy seven distinct cities have grown one upon the other, at Tepe Gawra in Persia there are fourteen or more levels. It is possible that droughts caused the people to migrate, leaving a site for perhaps 200 years. Or came a flood—the flood of the Bible—and one city was destroyed, another to bloom on the site hundreds of years later. +Archeologists dig so deep because civilizations grew one upon the other.
