The people who need more religion
are: The man who lets his horse
stand all day in the rain without a
blanket; the man who growls like a
beast with a sore head when his wife
asks him for money; the woman who
whispers it around that someone else
is not just what she ought TO be;
the preacher who is always looking
for an easier phase and higher sal
airy; the man who walks the streets
with his hands in his pockets while
his wife carries the baby; and the
man who keeps a dog and says he
can't afford the home paper.
