yesterday morning as it issued from

With rare presence of mind, DR..

eral hundred persons in the church
that the building was on fire and
cautioned them to sit quietly in their
pewS.
The congregation obeyed and DR..
Lawson together with several of the
deacons went to the cellar to fight
the flames. They confined it to the
basemea'.
This morning DR.. Lawson said
that IL was fortunate services were
being held in the church at the time
. for he feared the entire edifice would
have been destroyed.
Firemen who answered the alarm
marveled at the ability Of DIR. Law

discovered. The fire was caused by
an overheated furnace and damage

NOUS in the scientific world
Professor Strong doesn't believe
in throwing down the bars entirely
He would insist that the cousins
show that there had been no blood

When blood relatives marry, de.
clared the professor, the children
will probably be either very
superior or very inferior. It has
been so with European royalty. Ii
was so with the Ptolemy family In
their ten centuries Of interbreeding
that involved brothers and sisters
and uncles and nieces. Cleopatra
he pointed out, was one of the
Stolemies. That family, he as

were above the ordinary.
This is not against consanguine.

against the marriage of detectives
If there has been no faint for three
generations the chances are that
the offspring will be superior. II
there are taints. the children will
have the bad traits of one or both
parties. Statistics show that the
good and bad results tend to even

Professor Strong emphasized his
reservation-that there should be
restrictions against indiscriminate
marriages of cousins, but the pro.
hibitory laws should be repealed, he
thought. and scientifically guarded
enabling acts substituted.
That way" he said, lies
