Cross & Red Cross, Most of Coptic Christian Emperor Power of Trinity's subjects are pagans, but that wily monarch claims to possess the very Ark of the Covenant described in the Old Testament and the very Tablets of the Law, straight from Jehovah's own hand and preserved for ages in Ethiopia. Last week these relics which, if authentic, should galvanize the Christian world to action in their defense, were ordered by His Majesty "removed to the mountains...

...Jehovah's Witnesses call themselves "remnants" ("unworthy strivers after the kingdom of the Lord"), "Jonadabs" ("workers in the Lord's vineyard"), "pioneers" (those who have dropped all other work except that of Jehovah), and "publishers" (those who do Jehovah's work along with their own). Last Sunday, remnants, Jonadabs, pioneers and publishers, to say nothing of the thousands of plain Bible Students, listened bug-eyed in Washington Auditorium to a speech by Judge Rutherford broadcast and rebroadcast to the ends of the earth by radio, wire and wireless at a cost claimed to be $200,000. They...
