Go to some church; I am not concerned with what church you attend.” He then assert ed that the boy who is sent off to church and Sunday school while his father goes out to the club to play golf, or goes anywhere i Ise, is say ing to himself all the time, “just as | soon as I get old enough to be my 'own boss, I’m not going to attend I church any more.” He then asked how many present would live in ia community in which no churches I exist, answering his own inten’oga itory with an emphatic “Not one.” Another fundamental duty of ev i cry father towards his son, Dr. : Harker said, is to teach the boy re- I spect for law. Learn your boys to respect the law of the home, he said, early in life and there lay the foundation for him to respect not 'only the laws of the community and 'state in future, but also to know (and live by the laws' of God and Na ture during more mature years. As serting that “the weakest spot in America today is the growing ten i dency toward lawlessness,” Dr. Barker declared the man must free is the one who refrains from doing those things he knows to be wrong.” The laws of the commun ity and state and nation are no more binding upon the individual, he said, than the laws of society, the laws of nature and the laws of God.

(By Associated Press.) —, Roosters may some day be trans formed into hens and thus help in crease the egg supply if promises of scientists are fulfilled. The prom-; ises are held out after several years j of experiments with bugs, rats,' guinea pigs and frogs. ! The trick of developing a regula- i sure-enough female toad from a I youngster who started out in the I world 6s a male has actually been : accomplished, it was announced; here, and further experiments an- j being carried on with the view of ■ bringing about perfection in these' j newest of freaks of nature. The I I discovery, announced iby Professor] Harms, of Koenigsberg, has attract-1 j ed much attention in the scientific ' world, particularly among other ex perimenters who have been working j for years on this particular sex , I problem. j force the laws, and when you get | such a man in office, get (behind him and keep him there and support ' his efforts to maintain the dignity of the law. The father who adheres to these ■ principles, Dr. Barker told his hear ers, does his duty toward his boy and his community in greater de gree th.hi the one who belongs to an organization that takes the laws in its own hands. “You have no business taking the law into your own hands,” said he. “It’s risky busi ness, and no individual organization has any right to do so, except where a state of absolute anarchy exists and this doesn't exist in Americus, Georgia. Dr. Barker then went into an ex position of the great secret of life as this should be imparted to boys at given ages in life, his talk along this line being one to inspire the highest and cleanest standard of living not only among boys at ev ery age, but among mature men and married couples, temperance in ev ery relation being stressed through out.
