LE PAGE SX i 12,000 ROTARIANS (ME PRED NTERMTL NE Start Today For Their Homies After Profitable \ Convention * FROM ALL WORLD - Generous Hospitality Shown By City Throughout Convention (Special to The Times) : Minneapolis, June 23---The eause of international peace and will; through the Wieeting of leaders from nearly three thousand communities scattered over the face of the globe was given added im- petus today as the twelve thousand delegates to Rotary International scattered to their homes with fresh inspiration for carrying on their aims and ideals of service to their fellows. Men of international importance in public life and in the commer- elal and professional world coun- welled the Rotarians from the ros- trum upon their individual dunes in their vocations and as citizens te spread the practice of "Service * Above Self." Many of the forty. four countries in which there ure Rotary clubs were represented in the wide range of addresses. The beautiful floral decoration® of the principal streéts of the city,' the new $3,000,000 auditorium, as well as the generous hospitality of the entire population were especi- ally commented upon by the visit- ors, who formed the largest group of guests in the city's history. En- tertainment to fill every crevice of the program was arranged by the Minneapolis Rotary Club, with the assistance of hundreds of men and women eager to make their visitors e. Receptions, teas and trips about the eity also were ar- ranged to entertain the Rotasy- Anns, outside the hours of conven- tion sessions. Thé Rotary message was, Th aa- dition, sent over the air to an audi- ence of millions through the ecour- tesy of Station KSTP. The broad- oast of the pageant on opeming night, Monday, in which the Spirt of Rotary taught man to eradicate the weeds of selfishness and envy from his soul's garden, introduced the theme of the week to radio listeners. Numerous notable visit- ors, from abroad greeted the Am- erican people over the radia, im | brief informal talks each. night from KSTP's studio, President Arthur H, Sapp, of Huntington, Indiana, sounded the keynote of the convention in his address Tuesday .on '"Retary To- day and Tomorrow," giving his ex- perience and observation of Rotary in the many countries he visited in the past year, and painting the path of broader servied for the future. 'In the name of all the Rotarians of new countries into which Rotary has gone the past year, Dr. Wilhelmy Cuno, of Ham- burg, Germany, responded to Presi- dent Sapp's welcome, and the con- vention then got down to work. At the other end of the program was another outstanding figure in pub- le life, Sir Donald MacLean of [RESPONSIBILITY is a growth that each sea- son becomes more firmly grounded in the, Public Confidence and Respect upon which it depends, It is well for you to talk with those whose exper fence leads them to speak well of the sin- . cerity of our personal gervice, DISNEY.COTT Funeral Home 87 Celina St, Oshawa Phone 1082 parliamentary circles, who wound up the brilliant series of addresses with 4 speech on international goodwill, In between these two were many well known business and profes sjonal men, in a world-wide ex- change of views on international conditions, representative of more than 136,000 Rotarians, Clusters of flags of each one of the 44 na- tions in Rotary symbolized the world brotherhood. "The fact that Rotary has among its members kings, princes, presi: dents, men high in church and state in every nation," said Presi- dent Sapp, 'is but an indication of its latent possibilities in touch- ing directly, through the business men of these nations, every walk of life, high and low. Rotary shall wield a powerful influence for good if that influence maintains its integrity with unselfish pur- pose, which will truly bring about a new and blessed relationship among all men." "The gathering of so many thousands fromr many countries,' said Mr. Nils Parmann, a banker of Oslo, Norway, 'is of tremendous importance as a step toward the goal of one of Rotary's great ob. jects--the development af acquaint- ance as an opportunity for service." And surely the delegates made friends by the thousands durin® convention week, Welcome was heard in many tongues so the visit- or, whatever his county, was as. sured hospitality and an interesting visit. "Rotary's conventions," sald President Saffp in the speech which was the farewell address of his ad- ministration, "have grown to enor- mous proportions, and are giving supreme thought to peace time pro- jects with a view to a world vistdn f usefulness." Next to "Rotary" the word "work," as regarding vo- he speakers. "Rotary is for work- rs." said A. E. Hickling, of Guild- ord, England, 'for men and not or children masquerading ag n'!" He quoted Sarah Dowdney's mous "Lesson nf the Water MII" s a lesson for the Rotarian busi- ess man: ork while shines, Men of Strength and Will ver does the streamlet glide Useless hy the mill, it not till tomorrow's sun, eams upon your Way. that you can call your own, fes in this today. : Poiver, intellect and health tannot always last. The mill will never grind again ith the waters that have pass- ed.' otary as a elyie revival of a senge of community responsibility, was the message of Dr. Edouard Willems, of Brussels, Belgium. The essence of Rotary is in' understand- ing vocational service, the oppor- tunities in the life of a husiness or professional man's life, as com- munity service, "The principal community service proposed to Ro- tary," he sald, 'is raising the dig- nity and standard of life of all bhusinessnren, thelr eo-operators, yet the . daylight Ni ry, Sweet Music!

As one of those who first ad- dressed his fellow linguists in Spanish, and them repeated his in English, Julio Zetina of Mexico City described the prinei- plea of Rotary for a bufiness man as good salesmanship, and asserted that other countries have much to learn from America in this respect, As one of the best informed men on public atfairs and international relationships, now outside the field of current politics, former United States Senator James Hamilton Lewis summed up for the conven- tion the American views on inter- national relations. His position as adminiptration leader in the senate during the World War has made him especially well qualified to discuss the advancement of in- ternational goodwill. : The crities of Rotary came in for their share of attention in the speech of the Rev. Dr. A. W. Bea- ven, of Rochester, N. Y., who call. ed this "an mge of criticism," and expressed no surprise that an or- ganization "that has succeeded and grown as rapidly as Rotary should have its critics.' But even the eri. tic has his uses," said Dr. Beaven, "if oriticism is utilized for a re- study of ourselves to eliminate weaknesses.' President Sapp also made a ges- ture toward the critics, saying that "wisely," little has heen done ahout "the ravings of the ecrities,"" he- cause no great movement ever es- capes them and it was unflkely that Rotary would. Continuing. Dr. Beaven stressed the community citizenship of the delegates as their paramount duty, There is no counterpart to Robin- son Crusoe today, he said, and ne such thing as a self-made man. The modern husiness man who compliments himself upon his sue- eens would have no business to boast oY if his community disap- peared. Dr. Stanley Foster, of Christ- church, New Zealand, emphasized the importance of encouraging fellowship within the club member- ship. He said, "To my mind the absolute foundation of all Rotary work. is 'the development of ac- quaintance as an opportunity for jervice.! Without™ it nothing can done." re | Woven through the crowded program of the week was a series f wonderful] entertainments pro- ded by the Minneapolis hosts, ith the assistance of other clubs f the Ninth Rotary district. The ery first event, last Sunday after- oon, a sacred concert hy St, Olaf's shoir, of St. Olat's College, North- jeld, Minnesota, was of unusual nterest. In its tours of Europe in ears past, this choir of students as established a world-wide repu- tion, and an invitation for a tour f Norway is now under considera- jon. Closing the program of Monday ight, the Rotary pageant presented a dramatic fashion, the message f self-examination, and self-im- rovement . through adoption of the spirit and the ideals of Ro- tary in daily life. The tour hand of the University of Minnesora, 150 pieces, first warpnred the en- thusiasm of the delegates on open- Inz night Monday with a spirited concert. On Tuesday night the Minnea- polis Symphony Orchestra, one of the greatest of its kind in Amer- fea, filled the evening with a vari- ed program, including iwo well. known soloists, Miss Jeanette Vree- land, soprano, and Paul Althouse, tenor. The annual ball in honor of '| President and Mrs, Sapp and the other international officers on Wed- nesday evening was one of the. greatest society events Minneapolis has ever experienced. Each of the ladies of Rotary in the city invited three women to assist as hostesses at the ball. The border of the hall was divided into 44 spaces, #0 that the delegates of each coun- try should have a welcome nook in their honor. Two dance orches- tras, each of 25 pieces, provided the music, but even then, so vast was the expanse of the auditorium floor, that loud-speaker amplifica- tion was arranged to make 'the music audible above the shufffe of three thousand pairs of feet, Relaxation night on Thursday, with its special dinners, water sports carnival, fireworks and dancing was the climax in enter- tainment, as the Jast evening affair of the convention. Moving such a vast throng from downtown to Lake Calhoun was one of the gremt- est problems ever undertaken by the park and police department of the city. One-way streets were devised leading by different routes to handle the caravan of four thousand automobiles, which were donated for the evening by the people of Minneapolis ahd driven by their. owneys as a nrark of civic hospitality. Back of the formal convention sessions in the auditorium were the series of group assemblies, scat- tered in halls all over the city, in which smaller. groups of agele- gates met to thrash out the prob- lems of boys' work, help for eérip- pled children, club service, com- munity activities in general, and all the multifarious ways in which Rotarians cge find opportunities to carry out their slogan of "'Ser- vice above Self." 4 More than two thousand Rotary clubs mow have special committees engaged in boys' work; 1,700 clubs arg engaged in relief for crippled children; 1,500 clubs have student loan or scholarship funds, and 600 clubs carry on urban-rural acquaintance activities. In all the corners of the world the same de- finite group of purposes, adapted to fit local conditions, prevails. 3 .and to co-ordinate these, and instill renewed enthusiasm, the Rotarians Presbyterian Church Simcoe Street North and Brock Street REV.
