One of the most serious facts in America is our original settlers a re failing to produce their kind. We are not g rowing our own stock to populate America . The native Americans have become unproductive. It is a tragic thing wb<>n the scripture is no longer true "His • eed is in him self after his kind." For eleven million years o r more nature has given y ou each an unbroken line of ancestors who have come to maturity and . produced thei r kind, for you, aurl if you, thro immor ality, selfishness, over intellectualism or unhealthy customs fail to transmit your heritage, it is tragic. God rejects your kind and substitutes the prolific people whom he lo ves o r he would not m a_ke them. The country is to be popula ted tho the first settlers fail.
