Billy Sunday was right "at home"
last night with his Tabernacle au-
dience. In special reservations
were about 1900 representatives of
the United States Department of
A Agriculture-the largest single del
egation that has visited the Taber-
nacle since the revival began.
The evangelist "got close" to the
department workers when he declar-
ed that. next to preaching. he knows
possibly more about farming than
any other subject. He called him
self "rube Of the rubes" and said
that the Department of Agriculture
is, without question, the most i'm
portant branch of the national
government.
Praises Farmers.
Billy spoke in glowing terms of
the farmers Of the country without
whom, he emphasized, the nation
would starve in a short while. He
referred to the late Secretary Will
son as "the best Secretary OF Agri-
culture this country has ever had"
and declared that Secretary Hous-
ton Is upholding in great shape the
standards of Jim Wilson"
, You all had to come out to my
home State-Iowa-when you want
| ed the best farmer in America"
said Billy. And, believe me, you
got him."
Billy iguratively stroked a
bunch Of whiskers as he spoke of
the "rubes'' and the crowd of about
1000 persons in the Tabernacle
roared in laughter.
Several hundred hit the trail at
Billy's invitation. When Rody asked
the department representatives what
song they liked best, someone shout
ed Bringing in the Sheaves."
Blllys general topic was on "The
VIII OF God" He took several slams
at infdels and skeptics, whom he
referred to as blatant. white-livered,
red-nosed fools" He emphasized that
all the infidels this side of hell,
together with their teachings, couldn't
keep a man from being a drunkard
or a woman from being virtuous."
It's the Christian influence" de-
clared Billy. that leads men and
women in the right path and II is
| this same influence that keeps the
infldel from being a worse old scoun-
drel than he is"
Billy lashed the hypocrite, declar-
| ing that "skinning them is nv long
suit" Il can skin a hypocrite, tan
his hide and hang it on the barn
door to dry" said Billy, while some

You just dampen a sponge or soft
brush with 1t and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at
time. By morning all gray hair
disappears, and, after another appn-

beautifully darkened, glossy and lux
