LOOSE LEAVES FROM
LOOSE'S LIGHTNING

This tripping business will trip you
straight into hell.
! don't see why ball gown has more
fascination for woman than any other.
There is less of il.
Any man is fool who won't take the
advice OF a good wife.
Have you ever heard OF anyone find
ing a flaw in the life of Jesus Christ?
It's not where man is, but what a
man is that counts.
II you keep bitter thoughts in your
head about your fellowmen, you'll
have hard lines in your face.
The Devil has the world fooled into
thinking that he will give them more
than Jesus Christ.
Gods way is always the best way.
Try il out.
Nothing is more beautiful than duty
well performed.
500 times out Of thousand the moral
man is product of Christian character
God Almighty never intended the
church Of Jesus Christ should be cold
storage receptacle for dead people.
II God had intended us to be beer
barrels, he'd put hoops around us.
God will always meet one half way
when it comes to prayer.
II we are children of the King we
should show some signs of royalty in
our lives.
No man can win out over passion
without the help of God,
If you can't talk to your children
about becoming Christians, you are not
right with God.
II there is anything have contempt
for it is "pussy-foot."
What are you amounting to in life
that will count in eternity?
The greatest need of the Church OF
Jesus Christ Is religious enthusiasm.
We see in this world just what we
are looking for.
