BILLY SUNDAYS TRIBUTE
TO THE SOUTHLAND.

This is the verbatim state
ment of Billy Sunday in the Bos-
ton Tabernacle: ''Sixty eight
Per cent of. the men of the South
are In the church. Whyf You
may not like it, but the truest,
The purest, the finest men and
women In America are south of
the Mason and Dixon line.
mat S the reason it took thirty
million people TO lick eight mil
non. There are more pure blood
ed Americans south of the Ma
son and Dixon line than any
where else in this country. That
Is why so many of those men are
christians. L say that even II
my old daddy was one of the
boys in blue and fought against
them. They were hard to lick
down there because they were
real Americans. So south of the
Mason and Dixie line they have
got the North licked to fragile
IN religion and in morals.

PAYING FOR THE WAR.

Paying for this war is costly,
but as one magazine says, those
who would call the time must
pay the piper"
During the next twelve months
the war will cost us $780,
100000. Two billions of this a.
mount are to be raised by the
great Liberty Loan and the rest
by new taxation.
This means that more than 1873
must be spent for every living
human being in the United States
Yet it ism t much. Great Britiar
Is asking her people for $50 per
capita.
To raise loan of 1000, 900, 900
requires intensive work by bank q
ers and business men of every
section The bonds, to be Sold,
must be put ON sale at every a.
valuable place where people gath
err. Above all, two primary In
ducements must be emphasized
a call for patriotic support and
the offer of a sound and sure IN
yestment. People must be taught
to link profit with patriotism.
The response of the bond as
sue should be such as to convince
both our allies and our enemy of
what our participation in the
war really means.

MAY REGULATE PRICES.

The government placed a min
imum price ON the food stuffs on
the farms. Great Britain has
done this for some time. If the
farmers could know that the
price of wheat would be fixed at
$50 and corn at 81 per bushel,
they would turn out little
earlier and stay out little lat
er- Whether this is best, Is I'm
der discussion, with a wide diver
genee even among the farmers.
