Java Util Logger entring and exiting methods do not process

I tried to use the java.util.logging.Logger.entring() and the exiting() operations, however, they don't seem to be processing. Do I need to specify a Handler for the Logger or does it work without one similar to Logger.log()? In the code below, the logger.log() is the only method prints to the console but I do not see any messages from logger.entring() and logger.exiting() to the console. Any insights will be great.
Thanks,

import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;

public class SimpleLogger {
    private static Logger logger =null;
    public SimpleLogger(){
    logger = Logger.getLogger(SimpleLogger.class.getName());
    logger.setLevel(Level.FINER);
    //ConsoleHandler h = new ConsoleHandler();
    //h.setLevel(Level.FINER);
      //      logger.addHandler(h);
     for(Handler handler: logger.getHandlers()){
         handler.setLevel(Level.FINER);
     }
}
    public void simplyLog(){
        logger.entering(getClass().getName(),"In simplyLog");
        logger.log(Level.INFO, "FYI..");
        logger.exiting(getClass().getName(), "Leaving simplyLog");
    }
    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SimpleLogger simple = new SimpleLogger();
        simple.simplyLog();
    }   
}

By adding a Handler to the logger, the entering() and existing() operations are working, however, the troubling aspect of the updated code is the dual entries for each log record. Below is the snippet of the output to the console:

Aug 12, 2020 10:51:32 PM org.me.logger.SimpleLogger In simplyLog
FINER: ENTRY
Aug 12, 2020 10:51:32 PM org.me.logger.SimpleLogger simplyLog
INFO: FYI..
Aug 12, 2020 10:51:32 PM org.me.logger.SimpleLogger simplyLog
INFO: FYI..
Aug 12, 2020 10:51:32 PM org.me.logger.SimpleLogger Leaving simplyLog
FINER: RETURN

Now, if I remove adding a Handler to the Logger in the constructor, then entering() and existing() operations do not appear in the log but the problem with the dual log entries will go away. Here is a sample of the ouptut

Aug 13, 2020 9:43:55 AM org.me.logger.SimpleLogger simplyLog
INFO: FYI..

See the documentation for these methods. They log at FINER level.

A log entry gets printed only if its level is above that of the Logger and that of the handler that outputs it. In your case, your logger is using the root logger's default handler, which is a ConsoleHandler.

You need to set the root logger's handlers to log at the required level:

    Logger rootLogger = Logger.getLogger("");
    for (Handler handler: rootLogger.getHandlers()) {
        handler.setLevel(Level.FINER);
    }
