pany has in stock
The judges selecting Boyd's essay
represented the city planning commits
sion, the city commission, the Boy
Scout council, and journalistic circles
OF the city.
His Essay.
The winning essay was as follows:
The most important thing for the
welfare of Topeka, in my estimation,
is that the parents give more attention
to- home life. I believe that they
should see that their children receive
more home attention, such as amuse-
n1ents, socials, and, education. If
pleasant home surroundings are fur
nished it will tend to keep the children
off the street. out of pool halls and
away from places of questionable
reputation and thus develop better
citizens of the rising generation.
know of a boy whose parents had
neglected him and were always seek
ing pleasure, going to dances, parties,
etc. instead of giving their son the
right kind of home training. This
boy got into bad company and was
influenced to steal a car. In a. short
time he was arrested and brought TO
court. The judge questioned the boy
thtIs; a'sWhy did you steal this CARP
The boy answered: MY associates
said I could probably get away with
it and thought 1 could myself" but,
my boy" said the judge, haven't your
parents ever taught you better than
that?" And the boy said: What do
they care? They don't want to bother
with me-
In this case, as in many others, par
ents come to a sad realization of their
neglect when it is too late.
So it seems to me that this question
of home life is more important than
other very important questions such
as public buildings, colleges, clubs and
civic improvements in general. Let's
boost for happy home life.

FORMER TOPEKAN is SPEAKER
Darius A. Brown of X. c. Is Head of
l.. o. o. Nj.


Darius A. Brown, former Topekan,
ex-mayor of Kansas City, Mo, and
now head of the Loyal Order of
Moose. addressed the members of the
Topeka Chamber of Commerce at the
noon luncheon today.
Brown is here in the interest of a.
campaign for memberships which the
local lodge of Moose is carrying on.
He told the Chamber of Commerce
today of the influence which is being
eXerted for the betterment of Ameri-
can citizenship at the lodge home,
deceased members of the order are
given a home, education, and training.
Brown drew a dark picture of the
future of America if its present dis
regard for law continues.
1--WE will soon become the greatest
nation of law breakers in the world,
he declared. There are men and
women enjoying all the rights and
privileges of citizenship now, who
know less and care less about the
constitution and laws of the United
States. than they know of the consti-
tuition of China
II don't know what you people
think of the eighteenth amendment
but I 10 know that no man or woman
is worthy to be a citizen of this coun-
trv who will not assist in the enforce
nent of that amendment, and all the
other amendments, as well as the
body, of that4document.
yet there are prominent men and
women in every community who are
openly or secretly breaking this law
and sneering at it.
Brown declared that the influence
of the Americanization teachings at
Mooseheart is being felt not only in
the homes of the country, but in the
public school system
He is to speak Thursday night at
the city auditorium at o'clock to
mass meeting of Topeka citizens on
Men and Women of Tomorrow" and
at other meetings in the city, during
a stay of three days.
Brown is a graduate OF the Topeka
high school, and was formerly work.
