first time 1o h IM>S iiowded tiom pit
to dome 1 ist Sund'iv in t!ie famous
Mush- Hull in Cim tniiuti he personally
conducted the opening oi the Photo
Drama of ('nation there
The Photo Diania of Cieithm is pro­
duced in conimu tion with remarkably
clear phono"iaphie d scouts^ which
have behind them the fort.v jears of
Bible stnd\ by New York's famous
Pastor. By some process never before
attained the phonographs used in this
production have been relieved of the
metallic sound altogether, thus pro­
ducing the very finest oratorical ef
fects. It Is the wonder today of talk­
ing-machine dealers in the metropolis.
The voice is resonant, clear, full and
*estful, and audiences rarely detect it
as the voice of the talking machine.
< The exhibition is in three parts:
Part I traces the creation of the
earth and of man, its king-then his
fall into sin and its death-punishment,
the first promises of complete deliver­
ance from the penalty, and the Deluge
and its causes on to Moses' time.
Part II points us through the types
to Messiah, the great Emancipator of
the death-stricken race, and the world­
wide blessings His soon-to-be estab­
lished Kingdom will" bring. It intro­
duces us to the Heavenly Logos, who
became the man Christ Jesus. It also
shows and explains His sacrificial
work and His unwavering faithfulness
in fulfilling the prophecies concerning
Himself, and how His miracles pic­
ture the restoration of mankind during
His Second presence and reign.
Part III. traces not only the suffer­
ings of Christ, the Head, but also
those of the Church, His Body, prepar­
atory to their exaltation and conse­
quent glorious work of blessing the
non-elect for a thousand years—"who­
soever will."
Pastor Russell yesterday forenoon
discussed that feature of the Produc­
tion of the Photo-Drama that relates
to the overthrow of Israel's typical
kingdom and the foretold re-establish­
ment of it at the end (now due> of the
"seven (symbolic) times" of chastise­
ment at tlie hands of Him whose right
it is
His text • ad discourse follow:

He
should be enabled to assist every
worthy son of Abraham fleeing from
Russian persecution. He should be
prepared to advance money to every
settler to purchase every foot of land
in Palestine that is offered for sale. He

of His Chosen People.
Zionism will prosper, whether or not
Messiah's Kingdonr will be set up. But
Lwho will have the honor of having
manifested his faith by his works and
by his money? The love of money is
a root ol all evil amongst all people,
and the Jew lias not escaped it. Both
Jews and Christians need the exhor­
tation not to worship the Golden Calf,
but the true God I can thns reprove
and exhort Jew, Gentile and Christian
the more freely because it is well
known that I never solicit money for
myself or the work entrusted to me
by the Lord—not even Church collec­
tions—not even Insinuations that mon­
ey is scarce and desirable I do, how­
ever, exhort Jews in piosperous cir­
cumstances to bless their own hearts
by helping their own countrymen to
fulfil the holy prophecies
God's Great Kingdom at Hand.
The fault of Christendom has been
the rejection of the Divine Plan and
the acceptance instead of a human
plan of sah ation. The Church, it was
asseited, was to convert the world for
Jesus and present it to Him as a tro­
phy Alas, we have not been able to
convert ourselves, which is the partic­
ular work the Master gave us to do!
Greater humility would have shown us

We cannot" ""here go into details ex
cept to note that "in the days of these
kings" represented by the toes, the
God of Heaven promised to set up His
Kingdom—Messiah's Kingdom. This Is
symbolized as a stone cut out of—a
mountain, which struck the image on
its feet and demolished It completely.
Then the stone became a great Moun­
tain, or Kingdom, and filled the whole
earth—Messiah's Empire.—Dan. 2:31-45.
Pictured as Beastly.
Tije vision of Nebuchadnezzar repre­
sented Gentile domination as gorgeous.
But when a vision was given to Daniel
himself it showed matters in a differ­
ent light All Gentile kingdoms to
him were pictured as beastly. The
golden head of Nebuchadnezzar's vis­
ion, picturing the Babylonian Empire.
was represented as a ferocious lion;
the Medo-Persiau Empire as a bear;
the Grecian Empire as a leopard; and
the Roman Empire of the Caesars as a
nondescript, great and terrible beast
ferocious and destructive, as the pages
of history corroborate.
In contrast with these Gentile gov
ernments, the coming Kingdom of
Messiah was represented as human
"One like unto the Son of Man" took
dominion under the whole heavens, in
the name of God and as His Kingdom
The beastly forms of government dis
appeared, but that of the Son of Man
endured—accomplishing to the full the
Divine purposes.—Daniel 7:1-14
Where Are We Now?
As before suggested, the kev to our
problem lies in the Seven Times the
period of Israel's chastisement and that
of Gentile lease of power The meas
urement m both cases begins at tin
time of King Zedek,all's dethronement

"At first wood-pulp was used entli' 1

the employment of wood-pulp is prac­

It is uot our thought to.eucourage all
Jews to return to Palestine. Many of
them are better off where they are at
present. Only those who have faith in

to go now. Gradually their numbers
will increase, as faith in the promises
