Are you gonna ‘take the count to the Devil’ asks Billy?

THIS IS HOW BILLY FINDS OUT IF YOU ARE GOING TO “TAKE THE COUNT”

BILLY SUNDAY IN UNUSUAL POSE.

The above is a characteristic position for Billy Sunday to assume during one of his meetings for men only.

He bends over until his right knee nearly touches the floor of his platform; then he pulls out his watch and inquires if you are going to “take the count” for the devil.

Sunday’s sermons are filled with such unusual features as this, but they are never so plentiful as in the men’s sermons. There is no doubt about it the evangelist is at his best in these talks. He always bends every energy to the end of impressing his male audience with the truth of what he is saying, and in this he never fails.
