Frank Clarence Lowry * For ANP 1. Giving people the “hard way to go" simply makes your garden of life more difficult to hoe. 2. The thorns and thistles you sow each day ensnare wanderers’ feet and keep good folks away. 3. No one can make it hard for an innocent neighbor, without him self falling into some of his hand made pits he forgot to cover. 4. Providence sees to it that men pay up some day for the tricks they perpetuate to hurt a brother on his way, 5. Life wasn’t given to man to trick a single soul, but for every man to help his brother make his coveted goal. 6. When individuals give in to their “bent to sinning,” then every body around must endure their low type of living. 7. The strong and the weak must live together, but the strong must do the lifting, to help those who are drifting, that the world might be come better. 8. Men then w-ho are strong should thank God for this high assignment and not murmur against Him as on e being placed in solitary- confine ment. 9. For anybody can simply live here from day to day, but it takes a real man or woman to warn care less souls to think and pray. 10. With only 70 years at best to live, a man is mightly foolish who doesn’t learn to give, until his time is almost up, in thi K world to live. 11. Treating people roughly and giving them a hard way to go, may sometimes hasten victims to their graves, but it is a hequence almost certain that the end of such persons is very hard and slow. 12. Life, for us all has its set traps with attractive bait; It is only those who can control their human cravings who thoughtfully choose betw-een success and Jllfate.
