'“GOOD NIGHT, NURSE,” FOR
WHISKEY, SAYS BILLY SUNDAY
ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 15—William!
D. Upshaw, the famous Georgia editor, f
platform and lecturer and prohibition
advocate, agrees with Billy Sunday '
that the whole American people areJ
soon get a whack at the liquor traf-!
fie, and when they do —"good night, I
i nurse,” as Billy says.
Editor Upshaw, who is a candidate
. for tho United States Senate, went to
! the home of the late Sam Jones in |
Cartersvill as the guest of Billy Sun-;
; day, and on returning to Atlanta he
: took a train for Washington to attend
the great convention of the Anti-Sa-1
] loon League of America, with which j
! he has long bee t connected as a na
tional lecturer
The ’eague . naled its force; ]
national prohibition in Washingtoni
this keek, and the House committee
on constitutional amendments report-;
ed favorable on the Senate bill to
amend the constitution by forever ■
! prohibiting the manufacture and im-l
• por’ation of whiskey in the United]
; States. The bdl will come to a vote 1
! in the House next week ana there is
I every indication that it will pass.
I "Those- of us who have been fight

] shaw before he left, and his confl-]
I denee is borne out by the initial suc

JIM WOODARD HEARS BILLY
. SUNDAY FOR FIRST TIME -
ATLANTA, Ga. Dec. 15.—Uncle Jim j
Woodward, Atlanta’s famous-exmayor, ]
has heard Billy Sunday preach at the
‘Tabernacle and likes him fine.
It was characteristic of Uncle Jim
tc pick the coldest night of the Sun
day revival, with snow and ice on the |
I ground, to attend a meeting, and the ,
smallness of the audience made his |
presence more conspicioug than if the I
Tabernacle had been filled.
“He certainly tears up the ground,”
'“was Uncle Jim's laconic comment on
the famous evangelist, after hearing
the great sermon on Dr. Jekyll and
Mr. Hyde.
Tho ex-mayor and the noted evange
list have many points in common.
Both are celebrated for the freedom
with which they express their minds. <
Both are celebrated for their fighting |
' qualities. Bo h are celebrated for
j their rugged honesty and sincerity.
] Both are celebrated for their gift of
j striking the popular fancy.

million dol’ars a year to that city from
outside sources.

You will need dress clothes
for the holidays
BETTER that over. There’ll be a good many affairs
that call for evening dress. Now’s the time to
get ready.
Remember this in buying clothes: if they aren’t ex-
actly right in design—they are all wrong.
Hart Schaffner & Marx
dress clothes are right every way; in style, price, fabric
and fit: that’s why we sell them and why you ought to
buy them. We’re ready when you are.
