Sermons exposing human deprav-
ity are bad as the defeatist propagan-
da used against the French during the
war. Too much emphasis is being
put on human depravity and not
enough on human respectability.
"You can't frighten a man into
goodness. You can't frighten a man
into anything worth having.
"These Sermons create a spiritual
inferiority complex. It is infinitely
better to tell them what they can do
with Gods aid than what they can't
do without him.
"There are some plays now being
examined by citizen juries in New
York as obnoxious that l would rather
send my chillren to hear than some
sermons l have heard which preach

BRYAN RAPS SCOPES
EVOLUTION STAND
(By The Associated Press.)

DAYTON, Tenn, July 9.-William
Jennings Bryan believes John T. Scopes
defendant in the Tennessee evolution
trial, is doing more harm to the teach
ers of the country than to any other
class" This harm, he declared today
would be Indefinitely increased if his
(Scopes) views as to the independence
Of the teacher were established"
If the evolutonists can succeed in
establishing the doctrine that a teacher
can teach anything that she pleases,
said Mr.. Bryan and teachers disregard
the wishes Of their employers, it will
become necessary to find out before
appointment what the teacher thinks
on disputed questions, because the peo-
pie who employ teachers will be just as
certain to prevent teaching what is OBJ
jectionable to those who employ the
teachers as bankers and business mer
are to prevent clerks from running the
banks contrary to instructions of theii
employers"

RESORT
BEING PLANNED
AL Parker Would i'm
prove Tract South of
Arroyo Colorado

A project which has in view the es-
tablishment Of great hunting and fish
ing resort on the south bank of the Ar
royo Colorado, on the Laguna Madre, is
under consideration by All Parker. La
Feria, according to reports reaching
Brownsville.
Mr.. Parker is said to have under way
the purchase of a tract of 1900 acres
of land. most of which is outside the
irrigated area but which includes great
deal of excellent farming land, as well
as hunting grounds. The land lies along
the shore of the Laguna Madre.
1t is said to be the purpose of Mr..
Parker, if he goes through with the pro-
ject, to develop a resort along the lines
of the hunting and fishing clubs lining
the Gulf coast in Louisiana and in
Florida.
The plans. according to the briefest
outlines of them received in Browns
vile, contemplate bridge across the
Laguna Madre to Padre Island, where
beach bathing would be available The
bridge would cross the Laguna Madre
somewhere near the mouth of the Ar
roye Colorado.
Clubhouses would be erected on the
property, roads built. the beach improved
and other conyenienees of the kind sup
piled.
Hundreds Of thousands of dollars would
have to be expended in improvements, if
the project goes through. and the pro-
gram would require several years for
rounding out, according to the reports
of the undertaking received in Browns
vile.
