who profess it that are at fault.
We are going daffy over culture.
1t is all right in its place, but it is all
wrong when you make it take the
place of Christianity. America needs
a tidal wave of religion, a cyclone of
redemption.
All the culture in the world won't
educate anybody out Of hell.
When you get right down to facts
there is nothing wrong with people
but the devil in them.
God is not anxious about your
clothes, or whether you come in a
limousine or on hoof. He wants
your personality you can't place a
little money on the collection plate on
Sunday, and then go to the devil the
rest of the week.
Treat your wife fifty years after
you're married the same way you
treated her fifty minutes after the
ceremony.
1t makes me sick to see a man CAD
ding about, ignoring his wife during
her lifetime and placing flowers on
her grave. Why doesn't he give her
the flowers when she can smell them?
1t will be better to use the money
you will spend on a rosewood coffin
for your wife to employ hired girl.
Go home and love your wife for a
change, even though it will brighten
her at first.
Love is sure thing. You can't
quarantine it, you can't vaccinate it
and you can't reason with it.
If some of you women would take
off your head the hair that isn't grow
ing there, you would look like hum
ming bird in a thunderstorm.
You can't pray "Thy Kingdom
Come" then walk up to the polls and
vote for the dirty, rotten whisky bus
mess.
When you put whisky in hell you
will do away with crime.
Red whisky and virtue won't lodge
in the same skin.
God has nothing too good for you
if you have the manhood to say: God
| am an old dead beat"
Many man prays in the time OF
trouble, but when he can stick his
thumbs in his armholes and take a
pair. of scissors and cut his coupons,
it is "Good-by, God; III see you
later. "
