a. Card OF Thanks.

I wish to thank the people for their
kindness to my dear husband during
his sickness and death.
MRS. JOHN A. STEM.
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1919-07-19

The thing which passes for religion
among the hundreds of thousands of church
goers today, is a sickening, internal lot of
sham and hypocrisy palmed off by the Devil.
"While I am glad to see this large con-
gregation, that makes no difference to me.
I would rather have only the three front
rows of seats here filled with true, sincere
children of God, than to have the building
overhowing with dancers, card players,
theater goers, moving picture devotees, and
allaround hypocrites. By the grace of God,
| am going to let you know this afternoon
what it means to be Christian, and tear
the mask off this disgusting corrupt thing
which passes for religion today, with the
people at large.
"NoW if any one here wants to get mad,
that is all right. If I could conduct this
service without making some one mad, it
would be an indication that have shown
the white feather, and failed in the dis
charge of my full duty before God.
II will read the twenty-frst, twenty
second and twenty-third verses.
Not every one that saith unto Me, Lord.
Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven;
but he that doeth the will of My Father Who
is in heaven
"Now, to hear some people tell it, the
whole rotten mass of humanity is all right
Nearly everybody belongs to church of
some kind today, because you know, that
gives them prestige and popularity. The
churches, for the most part, are fashionable
social clubs, and about the swiftest way to
go to hell, is to belong to them, sitting in
the lap of the world and playing the harlot
with sin and wickedness of every kind.
"The great ma jority of the saloon keep
ers in the country today claim membership
in the Roman Catholic Church. A large
percentage of the convicts in the peniten-
tiaries are either Roman Catholics, or have
been brought up in Sunday Schools. Jesus
Christ declared that, except man be born
again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God
"This so-caled Christendom, God has
vomited out of His mouth. The Word of
God, in describing the Church today, says
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold
nor hot: would thou vert cold or hot.
So then because thou art lukewarm, and
neither cold nor hot will spue thee out of
my mouth
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and in
creased in goods, and have need of nothing;
and knowest not that thou art wretched, and
miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
= Revelation 3:15 16, II.
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord
Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven:
but he that doeth the will of my Father which
is in heaven
Many will say to Me in that day, Lord
Lord have we not prophesied in Thy Name?
and in Thy Name have cast out devils? and in
Thy Name done many wonderful works?
And then will profess unto them, I never
knew you depart from Me, ye that work ini-
guilty.

First Lords Day of Nineteenth Feast
of Tabernacles
Heart Searching Address by the General Oveseer Showing
What it Means to be True Christian
&C. BW)

A splendid audience was in attendance at
Tabernacle, on last Lords Day afternoon
the first Lords Day of the Nineteenth
Feast Of Tabernacles. The main floor and
gallery were practically filled. At about
| p. M, the people began gathering, and
soon hundreds were thronging into the
building.
Many strange faces were seen among the
people,
The Zion Band played number of selec-
tions while the people were gathering.
At 2:3O p. n1., the Zion White Robed
Choir of about 500 voices marched in,
singing in Professional, Grown Him With
Many Crowns, by EIvey. Passing down
the two side aisles, the choir circled into
the two center aisles, and then passed on
into the choir gallery in regular order.
This is familiar sight in Zion, but
never ceasing source of wonder and delight
to visitors. We never saw the Choir look
more beautiful than on last Lords Day.
Indeed, one might travel the length and
breadth of the land and not see sight
more inspiring or magnificent.
Immediately after coming upon the plat
form, the General Overseer announced the
Hymn, "What a Gathering?', which was
sung heartily by the audience.
The General Overseer dispensed with the
usual preliminaries and plunged at once in
to the reading of the Word of God, which
he characterized as "the most important part
Of any religious service"
Reading parts of certain chapters, all
bearing upon the question of what it means
/ to be a true Christian, he spoke for two
hours and fifteen minutes, this taking the
place of a, sermon.
He showed clearly that the natural man,
with all his inherited tendencies, is corrupt
and sinful, and that he cannot be- saved
through self-reformation or good works,
but only through the regenerating powers of
the Holy Spirit
The full stenographic report of this Scrip
ture reading will, in all probability, be pub
lished in Leaves of Healing We present
few thoughts sketched in long hand The
General Overseer said in part:
1T is with deep gratitude to God my
Heavenly Father that I stand upon this
platform this afternoon and look into the
faces of this large congregation.
Il will now read in the inspired Word of
God. Let no one think for a second that I
am reading as a mere matter of form or
for entertainment. I realize my respon-
sibility before God. I am in travail for
every one of you, that the Christ may be
born in you, the hope of glory.
"In the Gospel according to ST. Matthew,
the seventh chapter = the last of the third
chapter constituting the Sermon on the
Mount, so-called = Jesus uttered some very
solemn words. May God give you listening
ears and understanding hearts.

divers weights and divers meas
ures both OF them alike are abomi-

Thinking men and women will do
well to consider the striking argu-
ments brought out by the World
Trade Club of San Francisco in their
campaign for adoption of the units
Of the metric system Of weights and
measures,
They show Striking anomaly
That the metric system was invented
by a Briton, James Watt, in 1888,
and yet all civilized nations have
adopted It exclusively, excepting the
United States and Great Britain.
That the so-called British sys-
tenn" OF weights and measures is of
German origin--a relic of the old
German Hanseatlc trade league
and yet Germany scrapt II in 1871
and adopted the metric system, in
vented by Briton.
People of Britannia and America
may well ask themselves whether
they are not carrying conservatism
too far.
The Metric System is no untried
theory.
Its princlple-the principle of dec.
final computation--has been used in
the monetary system OF the United
States since 1886. II the United
States had needed Thomas Jeffer-
son, We should also have adopted
this system m'of weights and measures

tenn that a child can learn its main

BRYAN MEETS WITH
FAVOR IN ASHLAND

Next to Billy Sunday, william
Jennings Bryan was undoubtedly
the premier drawing card of the
Chautauqua, especially among the
lecturers. Many merchants ant
business men in the city closed their
places of business for couple OF
hours Tuesday afternoon In order
10 hear the Great Commoner dis.
course on the leading topics OF the
day and big concourse of people
from all over the valley ayailed
themselves of the opportunity to
hear this notable speaker.
Mr. Bryan's topic was "Forcigr
and Domestic Problems" and for
nearly two hours he held Lis audi
ence by the power of his eloquonce
in the expose of the leading quos-
tions of the day as they appear to
him. Prominent in these was the
League of Nations, which, he de-
clared, is the one instrument IN our
hands for the prevention of war. lie
also scored the proposal to make 4
separate treaty with France which,
he claimed, would cut off our own
power TO decide when war was TO
be made. If the power Of making
war is TO be taken away from Con-
gress, then the only body to invest
that power in is the American peo-
pie.
ITO me 1t is offending that France
should ask us to take this STEP"
Mr.. Bryan said. America asked
nothing in the war but victory and
the vanQuishment of Germany, and
for method of making permanent
peace such a treaty would be dis
integrating force and would be a
discredit to the League OF Nations.
And above all, American wants her
flag loved, not feared"
Other important problems con-
fronting the American people which
Mr.. Bryan discussed were national
prohibition, government railroad
ownership, telephone status, road
building programs, trade commits
sions and profiteers. or the first
Mr.. Bryan laid claim to the demo-
cratic party as being leaders in
bringing this moral issue about.
That he expected to live to see the
day when prohibition ruled in every
civilized nation in the world, was

one of the declarations of this pro-
ponent of prohibition. by Ameri.
cas- testimony as a dry nation the
world will be shaken" he declared.
There will be no great fight to en-
force the law now. Henceforth the
liquor interests will have to fight
their battles individually, and not
collectively"
A monster road building program
was advocated by the speaker, as an
economical investment for the coun-
try to take. Not only would 1t give
the country that which it needs, but
1t would also provide employment
for any Of Americas millions OF re-
turned service men who may be out
Of work. ''The sum OF $500, ,000,-
600 spent for liquor annually when
the business was at its height would
fill the whole United States with
paved Streets" the speaker declared.
Mr.. Bryan emphAttcalNy favors
government ownership OF railroads
and telephone systems. According
to his way OF viewing II government
ownership OF railroads is not fail
'ure. The roads we're taken over
when difficulties were at the high
est and benefits at the lowest, and
those at the heads of the system
did not want the trial to succeed.
Mr.. Bryan advocates the idea Of the
government operating the trunk
lines connecting the various sec
tions Of the country, while turning
the roads over to the states in which
they lie for operation. Private own
ership of telephones also came un-
der his disapproval. He pointed out
that telephone system in coun.
try necessarily has a monopoly, and
therefore should be handled by the
public. His plan would have the
various municipalities take over the !,
switchboard and systems, and thus
under such plan the postoffice de-
partment would handle long distance
lines.
Monopolies were scored by Mr..
Bryan, who claimed that from an
economic standpoint they are wrong.
The absence Of competition results
in decreasing quality. he claimed,
and increasing price Politically
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1919-07-25


monopolies are wrong, becaus
America cannot afford to let a pow
erful group of men grew up will
an unAmerican attitude. The i'm.
mense profits of a few breed an.
archy.
One other reform Mr.. Bryar
would have is having the country
publish newspapers for its people in
forming them upon bills to be voted
upon, and giving them correct in
formation on vital questions of the
day. He favors journal or chain
of Journals that would give editori.
al opinion of the different parties.
However much his hearers may
differ from Mr.. Bryan politically no
one can fail to admire his firm faith
and steahfastnesg to his party, re-
gardless of the many questions adj
vocated by powers differing from
those formerly advocated by him.
He is a mighty good loser and has
borne his political defeats with phil
osophy, and carries the same serene
faith in the democratic party that
he presented when ohe entered the
arena over score Of years ago.

THE COWBOY OF TODAY

This beautiful modern $500 cowboy
