''Dirt from Israel"
"Oh, we've got better soil than that
up here"
NO" he said. That's gold dust
and diamonds an rubies and sap

Why did he want the dirt? The old
King Of Syria, Ben-Hadad, was an
idolater and the law was that the
commander-in-chief Of the army CNaa-
man was the commander-in-chief)
had to go at his command Naaman
wanted enough dirt to build little
altar in the temple in front of this
old idol, so when he and the king
went In in his daily worship he could
see it. He had lived there all those
years and the idol had done him no
good and so he made little trip down
to Israel and God had cleansed him.
He wanted enough dirt to make an
altar. so, as Kipling says: LEST we
forget, when he'd go in he'd kneel
in front of this pile of dirt and that
dirt would remind him that at one
time he was a ieper. Now he was
cleansed, and that God down there
had done it. Nobody up here loved
God. They were all idolaters, and so
Naaman had to hold true to himself
alone, without help, only the remem-
brance Of the blessing. So he wanted
enough dirt to build an altar in the
temple So he wouldn't forget God
among the heathens- and that gang.

Rail CHIEFS PLEAS

We Don't Even Guarantee Soldiers

Chairman Sims. Of the House Inter

hearty disgust at the demand Of rail-
roads for a basis of guaranteed earn
ings which will mean no war sacrifice
to officers or stockholders.
Before this fight is over" he de-
clared, we're going to learn IL the
government can take a man from a
good private job and put him soldier

A glass of beer never did anybody
any good, not on top of this old earth.
It's the first glass that always leads

world!
I say, il the truth about the saloon
were only known, there wouldn't be

II We only knew the truth about the
hellish business, where would we be

So Elisha, the prophet, lived out
in a little suburb of the town and
he heard about it. He sent a note
down to old Joram, the king. which

he started on up the street to where

No, I've sometimes thought I'd like

Oh, they have a great time.
He said he stood watching them
one time as they came down the
hill, jumping on the spging-board
and down came a red-headed kid
whose hair was so red whenever
he'd take a shampoo you could smell

In the first Book of Kings, the eight
eenth chapter and the thirtieth verse,
He repaired the altars Of the Lord
that were broken down"
There is something more than his
tory in that chapter from which my
text is taken; just as there is alway.
something more in a picture than is
seen at the first glance.
The state Of affairs at the time
that my chapter opens was as bad as
it was possible for the human mind to
conceive. The country was in an aw-
full condition because of idolatry and
adultery, and all the sins that are as
ISOLATED with a nation that has for
gotten God and given, unbridled, to
all lust and evil desires.
And so rampant had idolatry and
adultery and kindred evils become,
that in order to. try and stem the
deadly tide, God sent the Prophet
Elijah to shut of the water supply
and bring on famine; and as we
read the Bible we will always notice
that in a dark time God always sends
prophet to arouse and stir the
people and call them back to the
worship of the true God.
Nothing was so much needed in
Israel as a sweeping revival. and God
Almighty sent the right man to bring
it about. and let's see how he did it
They required the affairs of the Lord
that were broken down. He did his
work in a way that was natural and
unconventional.

that we will do something sensational

man than I have with a horse tina,

is like a safe horse, one that any
woman can drive.

most striking character presentations
was that of old Elisha. the prophet.
He pictured Naaman, head of the
army of Assyria, coming. to the old
fellow to be cured of leprosy.
The evangelist mounted a chair and
leaned over the pulpit in imitation of
Elisha batting out some dope on his
papyrus." In comes the servant of
Naaman, announcing the visit of his
nibs' and telling of his request for
a cure.
Tell him to bathe seven times In
the Jordan" Billy pictured Elisha as
saying. And you beat it,
Billy then pictured Naaman doing the
| September Morn stunt; told Of the
mosquito that bit him when he slip
ped into the water and of the stone
bruise'' Naaman got when he stubbed
a brick.
That crowd was kept in a continual
roar of laughter during the story, and
the more it laughed the more Billy
strained a point TO make the presenta-
ton more ludicrOus.
Billy made a hit with the young
women in the audience when he gave
them a few rules on how to answer
a marriage proposal"
First" said Billy, when a man
asks you to marry him, don't camou-
f1age around and say this is so sud
den,' when you've been waiting a
month for him TO get busy" Sit him
down and ask him:
do you believe me to be virtuous?
Have you lived as you demand
should have lived? If had lived as
tou have lived and you knew it,
would you have asked me?"
To emphasize that God enjoys a
laugh as well as anybody" Billy
pointed to the fact that he created
monkeys, parrots and donkeys-and
some of you folks sitting out front"
slams saloon Men.
He took another slam at saloon
keepers, who have spent $4,000 try
ing to get me?' and he declared 1--WE
poked my fist in their dastardly faces
for twenty-five Years and defied them
to do their durndest and I'll continue
to fight them to the finish"
Billy said that society won't come
to the tabernacle to hear me preach
because it is shocked at my slang"
And he added such people ought to
be disinfected for two years before
they are allowed to touch the door
knob of a decent home"
Before the collection was taken the
evangelist asked his audience to save
the pennies for the postmaster"
Opening prayer was offered by the
Rev. G. E. Brown.
