as been no
evolution.

It is of great interest, therefore, to note what competent scientists have
said about this doctrine.

Dr. Thomas Hunt Morgan, department of science, Columbia University, says:

Today the theory has few followers among trained
investigators, but it still has a popular vogue that is
wide-spread and vociferous.

Alfred Russell Wallace, in his "Autobiography," said:

All the available evidence is opposed to the doctrine of
acquired characters.

Prof. William Bateson, in his 1914 Presidential Address before the British
Association for the Advancement of Science, said:

We have done with the notion that Darwin came latterly to
favor, that large differences can arise by the accumulation
of small differences.

He also remarks that the new knowledge of heredity shows that whatever
evolution there is occurs by loss of factors and not by gain, and that in
this way the progress of science is

destroying much that till lately passed for gospel.

And commenting on these remarks of Bateson, Prof. S. C. Holmes, of the
University of California, says they are

an illustration of the bankruptcy of the present
evolutionary theory.

Then Prof. George McCready Price, department of geology, Pacific Union
College, Helena, California, has said very recently:

It has long since been definitely settled that acquired
characters are not transmitted in heredity.

And in another place he exclaims:

If cells did not maintain their ancestral character in a
very remarkable way, what would be the use of grafting a
good kind of fruit on to a stock of poorer quality? The very
permanency of the graft thus produced is proof of the
persistency with which the cells reproduce only "after their
kind."

Then in speaking of Mendel's discoveries in the realm of heredity, and
which have now become scientifically demonstrated laws, he says that

the whole foundation of biological evolution has been
completely undermined by these new discoveries.

And he sums up the conclusions to which present-day scientists are coming,
in the words:

The principles of heredity, as now understood, have brought
us back to that great truth which is given in the first
chapter of our Bible, that each form of plant or animal was
designed by the Creator to reproduce only "after its kind."

The one who accepts this testimony, therefore, i
