BILLY FAVORS
MAKING USE
OF PRISONERS
Evangelist Indorses Move
ment to Utilize Labor
of Criminals.

Billy Sunday last night emphati-
cally endorsed the proposition to
make practical use of the 100000
prisoners in the penitentiaries and
jails throughout the country. He
said he approved heartily of the
suggestion to put the prisoners to
work for Uncle Sam to help turn
out material of all sorts necessary
to help win the war.
The evangelist told a crowd of
about 1000 persons that he COM
mended the action Of the American
Federation of Labor in getting be-
hind the plan which, Billy declared.
would go a long way toward solv-
ing the labor problems that have
arisen as a result of the war.
He declared the prisoners them
selves would gladly assume the re-
sponsibilities in lieu of being pen
ned up" behind prison bars and he
added that the work turned out in
such manner would be in no sense
in competition with the manufac-
tured goods of established mer-
chants.
As usual. Billy took a hard slam
at the Kaiser and his gang" In
his final prayer the evangelist de-
clared he's going to be in Heaven
''to see God square up with that de-
generate and hand him the hook"
in Billy's opinion the Lord doesn't
want to hear the prayers of such
a bull-neck"
Il believe that IL the Kaiser ever
got it into his heart to pray, God
would make the angels sing louder
and beat their drums so that he
might not hear his appeals" shout
ed Billy.
Billy's sermon was on Repent
ance.' He declared that being
sorry" isn't repentance. If it was,
he added, the finest repenters in
the world would be found in the
jails and penitentiaries."
The evangelist emphasized why
he is so pertinent in his speech. He
declared he can't stand for anyone
calling sin by ANY other but its
plain, everyday name"
"A drunkard is drunkard.
whether you call him a dipsomaniac
or not" said Billy. Adultery is
adultery and not affinity. as some
chose to call it. A thief is a thief.
not a kleptomaniac. Changing the
name of a sin doesn't affect the
lhideousness of the thing. 4 pole
cat would smell the same II you
called him a guinea pig"
Billy declared he hasn't much
time for "deathbed repentances" or
for "repentances forced through
fear"
There were a number of special
delegations in~the audience. among
them being more than 500 repre-
lsentatives of the District govern
ment offices. together with the Dis
trict Commissioners.
The Rev. ]. E. Shick offered the
opening prayer. Private" johnson,
who fought in the Union army, did
few singing stunts that were
amusing.

Drinking Hot Water

Full of Poisons.

Millions of folks bathe internally
now instead Of loading their system
with drugs What's an inside bath?''
YOU say. Well. it is guaranteed to per-
form miracles IL you could believe
these hot water enthusiasts.
There are vast numbers of men and
women who. Immediately upon arising
in the morning. drink a glass Of real
hot water with a teaspoonful Of lime
stone phosphate In II. This is a very
excellent health measure. It Is in
tended to flush the stomach, liver,
kidneys and the thirty feet of in
testines Of the previous days waste,
sour bile and indigestible material left
over in the body which IL not elimi-
mated every day, become food for the
millions OF bacteria which infest the
bowels. the quick result is poisons and
toxins which are then absorbed into
the blood causing headache, bilious at
tacks. foul breath, bad taste, colds,
stomach trouble. kidney misery, Sleep
lessness. impure blood and all sorts
OF ailments.
People who feel good one day and
badly the next, but who simply can
not get feeling right are urged to OBJ

to make any one a real crank on the

SPIRIT
BIGGEST NEED
OF CHURCHES
Revivalist Says the Present
Time Has Brought Neces-
sity for Divine Worship.

Billy Sunday declared in his
afternoon sermon yesterday that
one of the things the church to to-
day needs most is the spirit of
prayer"
God knows" said Billy, IF there
ever was a time when we ought to
have 1t, it is now, when the nations
of the world are clutching at each
others throats. and We are in this
war to the very limit of every dol
lar. and need every man and every
woman and child we can summon.
in order that peace and purity
might reign over this old world.
IF ever there was a time when
people ought to get on their knees,
it is now. Because, my friends, they
are on the firing line and while
some of them will come back, null
titudes of them never will see their
homes again. We want to pray as
never before that God Almighty,
out of this great turmoil and strife,
will bring glory to His name; and
he will"
According to the evangelist, zone
of the biggest farces in the church
today is a prayer meeting"
IF you've got a hundred men,
bers." he said, ''and you can stir up
fifteen or twenty. you think you've
got a big crowd. Where are the
rest Of them? Playing golf on Sun
day. perhaps, or going over to one
of the theaters that are open on
Sunday. I'm amazed at Gods pa
thence with some people of Wash
ington"
Billy explained that he has made
it rule of his life never to give
any attention to mail or kilograms
or any other matter in the morn
ings until he has read several chap
ters of the Bible.
Not even a message from Mrs
Sunday, when she's away from home
or from son George IL he was. in the
trenches" said Billy. could inter-
fere with my daily prayer just as
soon as my eyes open in the morn
