Subject: Dynamically referring to a Class

I have several classes in my application, e.g. Person, Employer, Office.
And obviously I have some Class methods for each, e.g. Person.find.

At one point in my application I will be referencing the Class name
dynamically, I will have it in a String.  So e.g. class = "Person".  I
want to send the Person class the 'find' message (call Person.find).
How do I do this in Ruby.  I've scoured the API and Google but it's a
hard thing to search for.

Thanks.
