'BILLY' SUNDAY
SPEAKS TO HUGE
GROWDOfl LOAN
Full of Old "Pep," Famous
Evangelist Tears Off CoHar
and Pounds On Floor
With Fist.
"Uncle Sam is no panhandler on t
street corner, mooching you for the
price of a drink not Weary Willie
whining at your kitchen door for the
hand-out of a .flapjack," declared
"Billy" Sunday at the Auditorium
yesterday in a characteristic ad
dress at a huge mass meeting to
launch the Victory Loan drive.
"Billy" was in fine form, full of
his old "pep, pepperino, tobasco
sauce and barbed wire." He stood
on one foot, held the other high in
the air, pounded on the floor with his
fist, struck out right and left He
had the big audience with him from
the start and when he tore off his
collar and necktie in the middle of
his address the crowd howled and
cheered.
The hand played "Brighten the
Corner Where You Are" when he
came on the platform accompanied
by Governor McKelvie. Billy bowed
and giggled and was a regular "cut
up" while he was trying to hold him
self till his turn to speak. He slap
ped Colonel Grant on the leg so
hard that that dignified gentleman
had to jump and, Silly laughed all
ine naraer.
Governor McKelvie's introductory
address was very short. "I feel it
a real honor to preside at a meet
ing where Rev. Billy Sunday is a
speaker, he said.
I represent the greatest nation
that God Almighty ever made," said
Billy. "That nation has never dip
ped its flag to any one and it has
just finished cleaning up the rotten
est gang that ever butchered chil
dren, outraged women, sank defense
less ships and did everything else
that their rotten minds could think
of.
"Your Uncle Sam went into this
fight with the most unselfish of pur
poses. He went into it to make the
world safe for democracy. He has
crushed autocracy and militarism
and all he is asking you to do in
this Fifth Liberty Loan is to help
pay the funeral expenses.
Flays Ex-Kaiser.
"I never pronounce thi name of
old Has-Been Kaiser Bill that I don't
feel like going and washing out my
mouth. Why even the preacl.er
over there in Germany had to take
an oath to preach just what that
old lobster wanted them to.
"That xold maniac started the
whole war by a shooting scrape that
was a frame-up to start a fight in
which the poor prune thought he
could swoop down on' a defenseless
world and conquer it. So the poor
weak little heir apparent to the
Austrian throne was croaked one day
in 1914. From all I can hear he
ought to have been croaked long 1 e-
fore- that. --,'.,. ' v
"TJiey thought heywpuld use this
as ah excuse and jump on poor de
crepit Russia and on France and
'conquer them. They thought Eng
land wouldn't interfere with their lit
tie party. And as for us, why. they
thought we were nothing but a
bunch of false alarms, excess bag
gage, four flushers and mollycoddles.
I Waiting for Justice.
i "And they deluged the world
with blood, not only the blood ot
soldiers, but of old men and women
and helpless children and babies.
. "And I'm glad that I have lived
long enough to see this thousand
horned, thousand-fanged monster of
militarism conquered and sitting in
the death chair waiting for the
juice.
, "If I had the say about that peace
conference there wouldn't be any
parleying when the German dele
gates come to sign. I'd put a Win
chester at their heads and give them
IS minutes to sign or blow their
blocks off. 4
"The Germans had the motive of
a thief and the instincts of a porch
dimber. But they didn't catch God
napping. God has never taken the
count from any bunch on earth.
The hell the Germans created on
earth made the real one look like
a sideshow.' But we went through
them at. Chateau Thierry like a not
knife through a cake of butttr. And
today the kaiser is the most despised
wretch that drags his slimy body
about the earth.
' World's Best Investment :
"Subscribe to these Fifth Liberty
notes. They're the best investment
on earth, and you want to feel that
you have done your share in mak
ing the world safe for democracy.
ji woman went into a jewelry store
and every piece of jewelry the clerk
would show her she would lick.
'You can't tell, gold that way,' he
said to her. No, but you can tell
brass,' she said.
"And in this Fifth loan you don't
need to do any licking- Uncle Sam
doesn't need camouflage to sell
his securities. I know you're go
ing to put he final kibosh on that
hiinrh nf bums in the so-called cen-
iral empires by finishing up the job
in the same style that you have
carried it through so far."
The Auritorium was filled. As
the various organizations - came
marching in from the parade cheers
were called for. By far the greatest
ovation was accorded the Salvation
Armv as they marched up the aisle.
"What's the matter with, the Sal
vation Army?" "They're all right,"
yelled the soldiers.- The canteen
workers also received an ovation.
"Uncle Sam," the "Goddess of
War" and the "Red Cross Nurse,"
living characters from the parade,
occupied a place on the stage with
loan workers, army officers and dis
tinguished visitors. i

"NOBODY KNOWS
HOW I SUFFERED,"
SHE DECLARES
For Twenty Years Mrs. Liv-
engood Was Miserable
Tanlac Brings
Relief.
"Before I had even finished my
first bottle of Tandac I noticed a
big improvement in my condition
and now T can just eat anything
without any fear that it will trou
ble me at all," said Mrs. Rebecca
Livengood, who lives at No. 1322
College street, Kansas City, to a
Tanlac representative a few days
ago. ' Mrs. Livengood has resided in
Kansas City for the past forty
years.
"For the past twenty years."
continued Mrs. Livengood, "I have
suffered from a bad case of stom
ach trouble and during the nast
three years it got so much worse
that it seemed like I could hardly
stand it My main trouble was
indigestion and evervthiner I ate
seemed to lodge right in the pit of
my stomach in a big lumn that felt
just like so much lead. Right after
eating I would have a heavy, de
pressing feeling in my stomach and
no matter, what I ate it would dis
agree with me and I would simply
be in misery for hours and nothing
that I would take gave me any re-
nei. teu you noDoay Knows how
I suffered.
"My appetite was very poor and
didn't relish a thing. I didn't
seem to get a bit of nourishment
from what I did eat and I was fall
ing off in weight and felt nervous
and rm down all the time. Ahont
this time I began to hear a lot about
Tanlac and what it had done for
others, and it seemed to be so high
ly recommended that I made up my
mind that I would give it a trial and
see if it would help me. I have
taken four bottles of it now and it
has simply been wonderful the wnv
it has helped my condition. I have
a fine appetite and all that distress
ing feeling that would trouble me
after eating is gone. I feel strong
er and have more energy and I am
gaining in weight: in fact I am
just feeling better in every way
man i nave lor years.
"Tanlac certainly has given me
relief from indigestion and I will
gladly recommend it to anyone that
is troubled like I was."
