GOING STRAIGHT.
The revival meeting was at its height, and the congregation over-flowed through the open doors of the church. The preacher a chocolate Sunday, you might say was "preachin' direc' from the Bible." "Now," he shouted, "we goin' to see what the Lo'd say 'bout sin." Oepning the Bible, he ran his finger down to the text. T'hen he shook at the sinners. , "What does the Lo'd say 'bout sin? Lo'.d say : Man is prone to sin ! That's it, brethe'n man's prone to sin. What's. that mean ? Why, that means if you' hangin' around the corners shootin' craps, you' prone to gablin'— you' pYone to sin ! And if you all time takin' what don' belong to you, you' pjrone to thevin'— you' prone to sin IWhat you goin' to do, brethe'n ? What you goin' to do? Why, just tu'n you' prone around the otliah way and .be prone fo' good!"
