HOT ON THEIR TRAIL

According to James J. Hollomon, special cor. respondent of the Constitution of Atlanta, Ga, Billy Sunday is after the Bolshevikis and ali other ''isms' in the states in his usual way, with hammer and tongue. The correspondent says: Billy Sunday never fired an audience with any more enthusiasm than he did some twelve thou. sand auditors at the old tabernacle this woke when he stripped hide and tallow from Bolshe- vism and the ether 'ism's' of the anti-Americans Nor was Billy Sunday ever in better fighting trim l heard him in Atlanta; heard him here q year ags (Washington). heard him in other parts of the United States, and he never spoke more forcibly, more powerfully. more elo- ouenty than he did in faying the red-iag bunch He kept the barrage up for an hour and half ard no American machine gun ever poured hot shot and shell more rapidly into enemy camps than he poured the deadly missiles into the camps of the enemy aliens now basking under the sunshine of too liberal American institn- tions.
 Purely because Billy Sunday is as much at home in Atlanta and Georgia as he is in Wash inoton or Indiana do refer to some of the new phrases that he coined for this remarkable charoe. Here are some of them
 'sThe hell that Bolshevism is making on earth makes the real hell side show
 Ebert and that bunch of dirty German cut threats are just as cocky as ever and must bear 2 deal of watching.'
 Every time talk about Lenine and Trotzqy or any of that rotten bunch over in red Russia ! disinfect my mouth before touching another subject no matter what it is.
 Capitalists. nothing! These nasty dirty, etinkine Bolshevists think any one who owns q li',art+ bond or a tin lizzie is capitalist"
 Free love? Never. They can't bring any of this piqpen stuff on this side of the pond.
 Any one who says no beer, no work should be deported CT stood up before firing squad.
 eOh, God, save the United States from the inn bending tidal wave of Bolshevism.'
 If any one thinks that couple of red flags and bunch of camoufiage is going to daunt any est-to-goodnes American, they have another guess coming to them.'
 I have often had occasion to write commend inely of Billy Sunday,for l admire any man with his pep and punch, but I never appreciated him as did nthis occasion. Possibly my deep sym- pathv with his views accounted for it, for hea- ve1, knows we folk here in Washington are be- ginning to appreciate the banefu inroads of this Bolshevistic wave. At any rate, his address, delivered with his characteristic snap and gym naztic and dynamic force backed by good voic eand 3 responsive audience, will go long way toward correcting an abuse that is growing ir this country only too fast despite our es- pionage laws.
