one. He enlarged on what home life
meant, not only to the members of the
family, but to the city, state and coun-
try as well, and he showed that the in
fiuences which come from the home are
the best and most uplifting of all. He
cited Rome as an example of what ne
elect of the home will do. In the
younger days of that powerful and
wonderful republic, the home was the
principal factor in the life Of the Ro-
mans. Later on they set up an aristOc-
racy which broke up the life i'm the
home and made it of minor Importance.
Immediately thereafter came the first
signs OF decay, and it was not long be
fore the republic had been overthrown
and the power Of Rome shattered. He
recited Bobby Burns The Cotter's

home life should consist Of and what
it should mean to every man.
