Billy is a person standing high in the regard of the doctor; for the evan gelist was referred to as medium of Christ" And hope was expressed that before many more weeks Billy would consent to visit Washington and perform the work of man."
 Dr. Wedderspoon declared that Wash ngton's indifference had caused other evangelists to leave after futile ef- forts with broken hearts.
 Ut was a sad day." he added, "when Billy Sundays wife declined to come to Washington. For we needed him and need him now. There is mans work to be done. and Sunday is the man to do that work"
 And unipformed people have always believed that Washington was a lady of more than pleasing virtue.

We must not lose your good will we must not tarnish our good name. You can call that anything you like.
 You can call it business, or sentiment, or ideslism, or nonsense.
 It may be all of these. It may even be that which our national critics cal making a god of business. But at least it gives to usa motive that is bigger and broader and deeper than money.
 Ii makes thousands of men happier in their work and more faithful to it.
 It has made of this busi- ness a democracy ofunited thought - a democracy of common endeavor- a de- mocracy of purpose and principle.
 And here is the oddes, thing of all l:--
 The more we live up to hfs "impracficaP ideal, the greater the business grows.
 The more we labor for fhe future, the more we prohtin the present.
 The more we strive for character, the greater tho reward in money.
 The more. we put into our product, the more we take out in sales.
 Perhaps, after all, there Is more than one sense in which 1t is good to make a god out of business.
 We think so. And we think you think so.

time 10 the experimental room.
 An alluring chance to save to make more profit by skimping, by substitution. No one wlll ever know. But - the silent monitor repeats it's impressive ad- monition.
 Protect our good name. What chance 10 compTo- mse with conscience in the presence of that wig liant guardian2
 Thousands of men striving 10 keep a name clean. And keeping their own clean in the process. We Americans, it is said, make a god out of busi- ness.
 Let the slur stand.
 Whether it be true or not 1t is true that business is our very life.
 Shall it be a reproach 10 us that we try to make business as good as it can be made ?
 Think of this business, please, in the light of it's great animaung thought; Protect our good name. We are thinking of you, always, when we say It t- you American millions, and you millions in the old world.
 We think of you judging us by what we are, by what we do, by what we make.
 We think of tens of thou saods of homes in which our name can be made to stand for that which is worthy and worth while.

 MT. Sanford attacked in vigorous Ian guage Senator Lusks' statement that the present administration is one of the most prohlgate in the history of the state.
 The man who made that statement is either ignorant or dishonest,v said MT. Sanford
 When anyone makes the statement that your public officials are stealing and that none of them is worthy of confi- oence don't trust him, for he cannot be trusted declared the speaker, again re- ferring to Senator Lusk
 ON COMPETITIVE BASIS
 In answer to Senator Lusks declara- ton that the proposed constitutional amendment does not admit of the sale of the bonds on competitive basis. MT. sanford frankly asserted that such a statement was false"
 lie then read the statute providing for the pond issue election, and called atten- tioh to the provision requiring the gov erhof to advertise the sale of the bonds Tn three daily papers of the state.
 senator Lusk says call the legislature together in special session. The legisla- ture was in session nearly seven months. and if it could not provide a way out of the states financial difficulties in that tune, what assurance have we that it could do so at another session." asked MT. Sanford
 MT. Sanford told how the governor expects to take care of the s750O0O deficit m the treasury after the s1,5O0,OOO of ponds have been spent. This he said, would be taken care of largely through the increased revenues of the convict de- partment, it having been shown that that department is now operating at a larger profit than ever before in it's history.
 APPEAL TO VOTERS
 In conclusion, MT. Sanford made a strong and eloquent appeal to the patriot Ism of the citizens of Tuscaloosa county. lie pointed out that the state is eXerting every possible means to take care of her obligations, to pay the teachers, to pay the pensions of old soldiers, and to keep up her public institutions
 T cannot believe that you will vote against the bond issue,' said MT. Sam- ford, because if you do so it will mean that Alabama for the next few years Will not be able to keep abreast Of the times. There will be no money for per- manent developments. Your schools will suffer. there must be suspension of activities in many other laudable direc- tons, and our state will not advance D
 He declared that if the $2,5OO0OO of outstanding warrants were turned loose on the state without some means for their payment that the money lenders and bankers would charge $, 10 or an even greater per cent to discount them.
 The speaker paid a fine tribute, to Governor Henderson at the conclusion of his address.
 You have a governor whose character is above reproach, whose honesty is un- questioned, whose ability as a financer is pre-eminent,' he said. Were it not so, the state would now be in worse straits than it is today" and applause greeted his remarks
 Mr. Samfords speech was a clear ex- position of the states financial condition, plain statement of facts, and it car ried conviction to the hundreds that crowded the courthouse. It's effects will be manifest at the polls on next Tuesday
