It has held that the rights of foster parents can be greater than those of actual flesh and blood. It makes an interesting case, because it goes in the opposite direction to most of our sentimental conceptions of the rights of parenthood. The woman in question bore a girl four years ago. The mother was in poor circumstances financially, the child's health was bad; and when the youngster was about a year and a half old, the mother placed it in a public institution for care. Then the mother dropped out of the picture. And the baby girl was adopted by a man and a woman who raised the child as their own. Her made happy; she came to love her foster-parents as her own,1""" E- u"run- chairman of the onH oho Wt hor nu.nu.rv f h,- .oul mnthrn- .ticket aale, aald today. MlM Morton . . . .11 child be flren back to her. The foeter mother went Into court, asked to have the adoption set aside, and requested that the child be delivered into her custody. After hearing the evidence, the court refused to act. It ruled that the mother had forfeited ber right to the child, and that the youngster's bent interest would be served by j leaving It In the home It now occupies. J ' We frequently fall Into the assumption that the physical tie which j exists between a mother and a child can be stronger thr.n any other eori sldPratlonv In this connection, we talk sentimentally about the "bond" that must exist, and we have a good deal to say about the rights of parents. What we often forget is the fact that rights are accompanied by duties, and that It takes more than a simple physical relationship to forge an enduring bond. The mere fact that we bring a child claim on the child. Our Job only own defects keep us from accomplishing that Job, all we can do la turn It over to someone who will perform it. If we fail in our duties, our rights lapse. Clear away the traditional cloud of sentiment, arid there seems little reason to quarrel with this Ohio court's decision. Someone has said that a safe place to stop when on an automobile tour, is at the railrojtd crossings. THREE TEAMS QUALIFY FOR - BIG TOURNEY (Continued from Page On) H.
