Excerpt from Hogan and Hogan: A Book of Religious Humor
I have three motives for submitting this volume of stories to that portion of the reading public which would naturally be interested in the type of subject and treatment here employed.
My first reason is the desire to provide pure entertainment. A wholesome laugh which springs from clean and untainted humor is a spiritual tonic. And a tonic is not without real value.
