SENTENCE SERMONS:
MONKEYS adE Ms first
By REV. FRANK LOWRY for AMP

By REV. LOWRY for AMP
l. Monkeys wore perfect fitting fur coats long before
some human beings acting like them, ever possessed one.
2. Clothes cover up deformities and beguile with their
style; but character reveals what we are.
3. Your clothes may be ever so good-looking, but they
don't help one to see straight.
4. Whiskey is good looking too in fancy bottles, but is
bad on highways, and ignors signs and throttles.
5. It carries it's own key and locks reason out, then au-
tomatically lets danger in; gives crime a chance to try
its hand, even knowing it cannot win.
6. It brings on destruction in married life denies
children their rights after birth; aside from medical use
in society, no one can justify it's worth.
z. 1t is a terrible thing when a driver of a car or a rail
road engineer, will forfeit the lives of innocent travellers
at the price of a few drinks of beer.
8. But it is true these human beings with less judge
ment than a monkey, will jump from pillar to post re-
CARELESS of the cost, just to satisfy their wanton thirst.
9. When the deed is done and the compact made, all
the culprit thinks about is his escape, for he is afraid.
10. But this is much like the final judgment that will
catch many unprepared, who lived faithfully for satan
and for his kingdom dared.
II. The deadline then, will be the only sign that such
will be forced to observe; but it will be too late then to
fully comprehend the truth of Gods Holy Word.
IL. Now is the time for men to wake up and the will of
God obey; there is not too much time left for one to set
his house in order-do it now while it is day.

saving" He figured a man could
put together letter of several
hundred words in about 20 min
utes. So he began using such
20-minute periods to write. and
found they add up to book a
year"
He wrote his first while working
full time as professor of English
lat Columbia University, where he
taught from 1909 to 1887. He
taught at Amherst College for six
years previously.

mostly textbooks and literary crit
icism, but the range later ex-
panded to technical music books,
and finally, to novels.
Born in New York, he originally
wanted to become musician. At
l3, he was church organist. But
he turned to literary efforts, al
though he later toured with the
