INTRODUCTORY

In presenting the first number of 'TE1E
TT1EOCRAT" the publisher declares that
the purpose of the "Theocrat" issto pres
ent the very best reading matter obtain
able from week to week, and to offer to
earnest minded people something that will
inspire their spirits with pure thoughts,
stimulate them to careful thinking, and
lead them to live as beings responsible
to God should live.
The words found at the head of this ed
itorial page in brief way explain the OBJ
jects and purposes Of the "THEOCRAT.'
1t must be apparent to every thinking man
Or woman that the world today needs some
periodical to remind people of something
more real, more hopeful, more enduring
than the trashy literature which is placed
before them daily, weekly, and monthly by
the scores, hundreds, and thousands of pub
locations which flood the world, leaving, as
they do so largely, upon the spirits of their
readers only recollections of crime, vanity,
.ungodlincss, and social and political corrup-
ton.
The voice of the "THEOCRAT" will
ever proclaim that God is the Ruler, and
that whatever humanity does should be
done in His service, and that therefore the
personal life, the home circle, organized
society as represented by the state and ma
tion-the whole world-should think, act
and live in manner to develop the best in
each element of society, that it may con-
tribute its due portion to the establishment
in the earth Of the rule Of God

Continued from page One

ZION S MISSION TO PROCLAIM A THEOCRACY.
Now | want to say that the Place Of ZION
is a predestined, Providential place, and
that the Purpose of ZION is Divinely des-
ignated purpose.
While loyal-now mark what | say -
while loyal to the flag under which we live,
while believing, with all their imperfec-
tons, the Constitution and Laws Of the
United Etates Of America to be the best
form of government in the world today, yet
ZION proclaims that there is better form
Of government yet to come.
ZION declares that THE KINGDOM OF
GOD must be established upon this earth,
and that the Flag Of Jehovah must be es-
tabished above every flag, and be supreme
over every nation. Is that Our aim?
Audience Eyes"
General Overseer-It is. We are Theo-
Gratis.
The rule of the people, by the people,
and for the people would be a very bad
rule if it were carried out for the ajority
of the people are bad; and if the majority
ruled, it would be bad rule.
It is by an overruling Providence, and
by good deal of political schening which
tries to help out Providence, that the ma
jority do not rule: for this Country is
governed by three coordinate powers =
the Legislative, the Executive, and the
judicial and the greatest of these is Law.
God rules wherever there is Purity,
Peace, and Power.

happy and pure, from beds that are not the
beds Of adulterers and adulteresses; there
virgin purity is protected, and there youth
is developed into manly, holy, happy man
hood; there from the kindergarten to the
college the education is carried upon a
Christian basis there Christ is the Alpha

true science true history, true language,

NATIONAL

While the program will be changed
twice as usual. for this, the fifth and last
week of the Aborn English Grand Opera
Company's season at the New National
Theater, beginning tomorrow night, there
will be three different operas presented,
for during the latter half of the week a
double bill will be offered for four per-
formances.
Verdis "Rigoletto' will be sung Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday nights and
at the Wednesday matinee. Like his
Aida" I'll Trovatore'' and La Ira
viata.' Verdi's "Rigoletto" is rich in
melodies in his finest vein and from a
dramatic standpoint it is even more in
tense and engrossing than the others.
Its story is taken from Victor Hugo s
great play, LIE roi s'amuse." which
was made famous in this country under
the title of 1.-THE Fools Revenge" by
Edwin Booth. The double cast for this
opera win include Edith Helena and
Helena Morrill,, sopranos; Giuseppe
AgoStini and Domenico Russo, tenorS;
Louis D'Angelo, baritone; George
Shields, basso; Philip Fem, buffo:
Jerome Uhl, basso, and Helen Gaynor.
Two shorter operas, "Cavalleria Rusti-
cana in one act, and Hansel and
Gretel,' in three acts, will form the
program for each of the performances
Of the latter half of the week. Both
represent the best work of great COM
posers of the present day. While
"Cavalleria" presents a life like depic-
ton of the passion. customs and ideas
of chivalry among the peasants of
Sicily, the other opera, with a less seri-
Gus libretto, is founded upon the quaint
legend of the Babes in the Wood'-a
veritable musical fairy tale. The casts
of these two operas will be drawn from
Gladys Chandler, meZZo-soprano. Joseph
Tressi win conduct at all performances
and the stage will be in charge Of
Edward Tomars.
