this sophisticated and fast- moving age a l rip to ihe nioon or men staying in space for a few weeks is old hat the novelty and wonder of such remarkable achieve ments have become commonplace this is a pity as is any loss of wonder and reverence for ihe many wonders all about us manmade or in gods wonderful world i was reminded of ihe moon journeys one day last summer while walking in the woods and slopped lo examine a common specimen of fungus growth a loadstool wilh the aid of a magnifying glass the topside did indeed resemble the moons surface monotonous in color deceptively smooth and featureless but observed more closely having ridges and pock marks that suggested hills and craters as we have seen in photographs taken by astronauts on the moons surface also ob servable was one wonder the space scientists did not see life on this toadstool i held in my hand were microscopic insects crawling about busy with iheir own affairs but what a change on turning over the fungus and looking al ihe other side i for here was a delicate beef dinner makes 500 pattern of liny fins gravitating symmetri cally from a central stem lo ihe circumference and evenly spaced all around an infinitely beaulifu design but most practical loo for ob viously this fin system was a sort of air- conditiorier by which temperature and moisture could be controlled gods workmanship whether large or small is always wonderfully perfect suited exactly i o the need there are many kinds of fungus growth to be found in ontario displaying many surpri sing features of interest i picked up and marvel led as i examined a few other specimens growing nearby one was almost repulsive black as coal and irregular in shape another dainty little specimen was pure white with twoinch tendrils reaching up to light and air its form rather like sponge coral st ill another was huge by contrast roughly circular in shape measuring 8 x 11 inches with a cup almost two inches deep scl near one side not in ihe centre and growing from this cup a peculiar flowerlike projection there were others including tree fungus each a marvel of design and so strong thai i could not dclach a sample with my fingers for further study all of these specime ns of lowly creation added lo my sense of wonder and reverence as i recognized in each an example of gods creation perfectly suited lo ils environment and contributing lo that balance of nature so necessary lo keep our world wholesome and beautiful angostura the international rum in a new package new lower price same fine international quality same
