He is the possession of the decoration called " The Sacred Treasure: Third Order" but he is often found riding in the third class railroad cars on his way to hold some evangelistic service.

Such is the sum of its theory of human duty. Preaching forms no part of its institutions, nor are the rewards and punishments of a future-life used as incentives to right conduct. The continued existence of the dead is believed in; but whether it is a condition of joy or pain, is nowhere declared. from time to time new names are added to the pantheon gods.
