Pilate! Says Billy Sunday: “I'll 
tell you what old Pilate was. He 
was a standpat, free-lunch,  pie- 
counter, pliable, lickspittle, tin-horn, 
peanut-grafting, ward-heeling, weasel- 
eyed, rat hole of a whiskey-soaked 
Godforsaken politician. He was a 
typical machine politician, the direct 
product of the political systems of 
Rome and Jerusalem. Yes, and there 
are a lot of fools today who are so 
low down and black hearted that they 
let the world spit in the face of Jesus 
Christ for fear of their jobs.”

Horace H. Atherton, Jr., editor of 
the Saugus Herald, president of the 
Essex County Press club and guilty 
of other offenses including that of 
holding down the office of register of 
probate at Salem, has a wide ac- 
quaintance throughout Essex county 
and Saugus. Following his custom 
he has sent New Year’s greetings to 
his friends—and enemies (the news- 
papermen of the county). This is an 
acknowledgment! At the dinner 
given by Congressman Gardner at the 
Boston City club on Wednesday eve- 
ning the register of probate kept his 
rubbers on during the entire evening. 
His conduct so puzzled a fellow diner 
that he was moved to inquire the rea-

Horace was wearing his rubbers to.

Speculators in munitions stocks 
who fear the effect of the Kaiser 
brand, Wilson-approved, peace pro- 
posals should take heart at this old 
prophecy : 
It Christmas Day on Monday be, 
A great winter that year you'll see, 
And full of winds both loud and shrill; 
But, in summer, truth to tell, 
High winds shall there be and strong, 
Full of tempests lasting long, 
While battles they shall multiply 
And great plenty of beasts shall die.
