A good tree brings forth good fruit and ar evil tree bring forth bad friut. This is the foundation foun-dation of Christ's teachings. "Today man has conquered the land, sea and air. Yet, notwithstanding notwith-standing all this, mankind has witnessed wit-nessed two world wars within the short space of 25 years," stated President McKay.
