Billy sunday and pr. George Stuart


 | q was very much interested in an article I read few days ago signed by the Rev Alex W. Bealer of At lanta, under the caption What I Think of Billy Sunday" said Dolly Dalrym- ple. "It appeared in the Atlanta Jour nal. and among other things, the emil nent divine compared the Rev. Billy 1 to our own beloved Dr. George R.. Stuart, and that naturally made me more interested, than ever in what he I had to say Among other things. tho 1 Rev. Dr. Bealer recorded these im- pressions:
 What are my impressions of Billy Sunday? I have heard most of the great evangelists of America-Sam Jones, George Stuart. R. B. Torrey and J. Wilbur Chapman, but Billy Sunday is a combination of them all. and then some. He has the humor l of Sam Jones, the earnestness of George Stuart, the Scriptural knowl- l edge of A. A. Torrey and the polish l of j. Wilbur Chapman. Mixed into ! this combination is Billy Sunday s spirit that gives a peculiar flavor to it all and makes him charming per sonality. I was greatly impressed by his earnestness. He looked just as I remember to have felt one day when 1 was playing ball. I was at the bat | and there were three men on base and two strikes were charged up against Eme. Every footstep on the platform l and every cough from the congrega l ton seemed to disturb him. His eyes were turned upward and his lips moved in prayer. It seemed to me that he was establishing direct connection | with heaven and he did not want II | to be broken. There was to me the pathos of human helplessness in his face as he looked upon the congre- gation and felt that souls were there that might be reached by his words or driven away from God.
 His language was rather startling at first, but I soon came to see that il was part of the man. It would sound 1 harsh if used by a man of less rever' ence for God, but it was not out oi place with him Just as the once hated fiddle has been confiscated and put to work in praise of God, Billy Sun- day has taken the vernacular of the diamond and the slang of the common people and put it to work in glorifyins God I will not soon forget the prayer in which he told God all about the big cotton crop we have made in tho south and the money we have received for it.
 His theology was as sound as { dollar; he has faith enough in Goo
 to anchor himself upon the teachings
 of the old Book; he takes no liberties
 with it, but with koly zeal preache.
 the truths it proclaims. whether thcA
 glow with the beauties of heaven ol
 with the terrors of hell.
 "The charm about him is his per
 sonality. He has good case of tht
 old-time religion, his heart is or
 fire with a love for souls and he i.
 an actor who could make a hit ol
 any stage. As a comedian he is {
 success and as tragedian he ha few superiors. All these gifts hav
 been surrendered to God, and they ar,
 being used of Him in the redemption

Work for Evangelism

"A movement recently started quiet ly and without any sound of trumpet is already being felt in the religious life of the community" said Dr. J. M Broadly, pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church.

LIndsny's Decorations Appreciated

"The suffragists are very grateful to MT. Walter Lindsay of Loveman, Jo- seph & Loeb for decorating their bazar," said Mrs. Give Richardson, chairman of decoration for the suf- frage bazar now at the Hillman.
 "Mr Lindsay has done such beau- by explaining his reasons for want ing to help us. He said that when he was in the High school he was on the affirmative side in a suffrage debate and lost, and he determined then and there to help suffrage in every way he could. Decorating for the bazar is Q very tangible and much appreciated way of helping suffrage"

 seed eye," but the pesky little Spanish peanut was everywhere in evidence, and the smell of crushed peanuts filled the air. The mill is just in the rear of the home in which I spent my happy boy hood days Next to the garden are two great tanks Qike city water reservoirs), filled with peanut oil, and the great barns are piled high with the marvellous little nuts that are enriching whole coun- ties and doing their part to help win the war.

Bishop B. Y. McMullen of Leeds
was here the first part of the week.
He intended returning home Monday
afternoon, but the stage auto was
too crowded, and refused to take him,
SO that he was obliged to remain I'M
ill Tuesday. Brigham is living in
hopes of something being done in the
matter of tho Silver Re& mines, con-
corning which there has been consid-
cradle talk and agitation the present
season, but at present the plae is very
quiet and practically nothing is being
done. With silver selling at above a
dollar an ounce we can see no reason
in the world for the famous old silver
camp, which was never half depleted,
lying dormant.

The roads are in about the worst
condition now that we have ever seen
them. There is no use talking-witli
the increase of business and traffic
in this section of the country, we can't
get by with the ordinary old dirt sur
face roads very much longer. We will
have to either pave, as Bishop Nibly
wisely suggests, or shale and gravel
them. This latter method, while a
very great improvement over present
conditions, will be more or less Of a
temporary shift. The economical thing
to do is to pave at least one principal
state highway, right through the
state, from north to south.
