On the Wrong Tack.

~ EV. BILLY SUNDAY can bring out goose
IN pimpies when he talks about he'll But we
hope the day has passed when even the most i'm
pressionable OF his hearers can be scared by
rhetorical about the dangers Of Bolshevism
His recent appearance in Washington was decided
disappointment. 1t is unfortunate that preacher
with such vigorous appeal should run dry Of
subjects worth preaching about. The most effective
evangelist of the age is reduced to such poverty
of ideas that he borrow the thunder of rantng
politicians and Fourth of July orators. We shall
expect to see him waving American flag while
he talks about "our heroic dead" before the year
is
We advise Mr.. Sunday to stick to his he'll"
The average American audience has reached the
stage where its emotions cannot be stirred to any
great fervor by indictments Of the Reds" The
devil is much more picturesque personality than
Lenn-and fellow who exerts greater influence
in the average community.
At the most not one American In 10000 is .
Bolshevist Not half of that small number are
practical Bolshevists. But from the evangelists
own accounts of few years ago one out of every
two three of his fellow citizens is disciple Of
Belzebub and headed straight for the internal
furnace where wicked people repent of their sins in
sorrowful eternity. The old-fashoned evangelical
appeal IS not out OF date. II still will hit some
of the primary emotions of men and women. 1t
probably does more good than harm. For few
weeks, least, after effective revival there is
purer moral tone about community. But
Bolshevism is dead issue in the United States.
1t has been dead for the past year or more.
Billy Sunday, fear, Is a preacher of the
day-not OF the century. The great pulpit orators
OF the past whose have lived beyond their
own generation whose understanding
went below the surface of life. Wesley, for
example great actor-but he also was a
great theologian and great philosopher. Billy
Sunday is only an actor. He lacks the depth Of
thought that will insure him fame. His present
rantngs about Bolshevism reveal clearly that the
is shallow despite his brilliance. He is such
poor analyst that he can't distinguish the devil
from a scarecrow bachanalian reve from
dance held under the auspices of the Young Mems
Christian Association. Mr.. Sunday needs few
years of quiet and study.
We agree heartily with the evangelist's ideas
on the enforcement of prohibition But he said
nothing which tends to strengthen views on
the subject. We suspect that he never has devoted
much thought to real brief for the Eighteenth
amendment-a brief that would convince earnest
people who in doubt He contents himself
simply with repeating the statement that every
drinking will go to hell. Why? He fails to
answer the question. We doubt if he knows. He
doesn't present argument. He administers a
spanking.

the views OF our own worthy Presi-

there more honored and believed In
than he. The whole world knows the
stand he takes regarding prohibition.
Just a few days ago In the face of all
the propaganda being put out by the
liquor people Of the land Mr.. Harding
said Prohibition has come to stay"
Then again we wonder IL our friend
the Ex-Doughboy has ever read the
forceful articles which appear each
Saturday in The Herald by Mr.. Will
ian Jennings Bryan. Mr.. Bryan says
God never made human being who
in a normal state needed alcohol. ana
He never made a human being strong
enough to begin tho, use OF alcohol
and be sure he would not become its
slave. If alcohol is not needed and
can never he purged of its dangerous

means all alcoholic drinks, including
light wines and beers

Prohibition Commissioner Haynes
says that more than 12,OOO,0O0 Ameri-
cans have stopped drinking since pro-
