valuable adjunct TO the evangelistic
meetings In the tabernacle.

This announcement is not Official.
for Billy Sunday never tells his
audiences when he is going 10 ask
them 10 stream 10 the altar and
rledge their allegiance 70 the Chris
tan life. but In his sermon Sunday
night he gave good hint that he
would follow this program.
He is accustomed 10 preach for
shout a week or his preparatory
sermons before he asks for con
verts, usually winding up the pre-
raratory work with his celebrated
sermon on the Ten Commandments,
the one he gave Sunday night
At the conclusion OF his sermon
he asked all those who we're sorry
they had broken the 10 command
nents and who would pledge them
selves to try to observe them in the
future TO stand.
The entire audience. estimated al
10000, was standing In a second and
remained standing while the evan
gelist uttered one OF the most re
msrkable prayers that ever fell from
the lips OF man. Sometimes kneeling
and sometimes standing on the pull
pit desk, at others almost prone
upon the floor Of the platform, be
shouted his prayer, as he waved his
arms and pounded the floor

countries That Germany and Austria will not
regain at least for many years to come, the trade
which they had established, is accepted here as
foregone conclusion. Further, it is pointed out
that most of the Entente Allies will not be in
position Immediately after the ending of HOSTILE
ties to resume their pre-war exports, due partly
to the demands which will be made for the re-
construction period at home and partly to the
disorganization Of their industries. These con-
ditions it is said. will give the United States a
chance to make substantial increase in her
trade with India, provided she strikes while the
iron is hot
A commercial expert adds:
"In this connection I might say that the
growth of American trade will depend largely on
the method of introducing goods. It is essential
that American exporters send competent agents
over here to represent them India is vast
country and articles that might find ready
market in one section would be rejected in anoth-
er. These things must be studied out. Further,
the matter of personal contact with the purchas-
er means much. You cannot sell goods in the
East simply by sending over picture catalogue.
Catalogues have their place, but they should fol-
low in the wake of statesmen The firm that has
it's agent on the ground will get the trade if it
sells good articles"
