Dr. Warren talked so interest- ingly of his entire trip, relating| |experiences that are interesting and relating observations that are wonderfully instructive, that the ibelance of the story will be given jin his own words as he told it to \a Citizen. representative: “Aboard the Rotary special for | Denver in the coach with-me was ja de Jegate from Tokio, Japan, and De ‘Janeiro. |The ‘delegate from: Tokio‘ was | manager for the U.

Some of, the hollow tiling fell out jand some bolts. of the structure jloosened, but the building stood. Among other interesting Rotari- ans were Fred Van Amburgh, of |New York City, editor of the Si- jlent Part ; and Dr. Squires, ‘chief physician of Sing Sing pris- }on, who lias “ electrocuted ~140/ nien. “We went from New York to Chieago over the Rock Island} | Route to Denver, over some of |the most scenic and historic see- tions of the continent,”’ Mr. War- lren said, “One thing that im- |pressed me was that the season} | appeared to be about a month be- |hind, with corn, wheat and other | vegetation just coming up. “We arrived at Denver on Mon- date of | the opening of the Seventeenth In- ternational Convention of Rotary Clubs of the World. . “After registration, the first important -event -was- the Rotary internatiqnal welcome Fpl at, the Denver university stadium. Here among. the snowy peaks of |mighty pow-wow. The mountain erected and painted to represent beautiful scenery seemed contin- uous with the natural mountains to the rear, and the lightning |flashes séemed to have been of- |fered by Nature to lend grandeur to the event. “Chief White Bagle many tribes down the hills, ac- companied by tom-toms and ‘many horses. until they came down on the plains. Here he prophesied 'thet in the near futyre many men of many nations would gather in the service of mankind.

She graciously acknowledges the salute of their flag and in their honor holds the foretold festival participated. “Each nation was — represented by groups dressed in the costumes characteristic of the nations, re- spectively, bearing their flags and preceded by bands of music. Hundreds of organizations, seven different schools of dancing. the Highlander boys of Denver. three Indian tribes, the Zuni, Navajo, ond Black Feet. all the service clubs—Lions, Kiwanis. Optimists, Gvro, Civitans and High Twelve elubs. Arvada commupity chorus and Saint Mark’s ehorus, partici- vated. All Become One “In the grand finale all the na- tions become one, merging their individual indentity in the whirl- ing wheel of Rotary Internation- al, which encircles the nations of the entire world. This was re- presented: by a huge balloon forming the hub of the wheel which suddenly became inflated with the continents thereon, which formed the. hub of , the wheel, and the nations of the earth formed the spokes and rim, holding the Rotary colors, the ‘en- tire wheel rotating in the lights of the powerful _ searchlights. Its picturesqueness beggars de- scription. “The second episode was ap- pearance of the Black Ilorse Troop and the mounted band of the Thirteenth Cayalry, U. S, A., from Fort Russell, ° Wyoming. The drilling of these horses was carried out in a most intricate manner without a command, keeping time to the music of the mounted hand. “The third episode was the bal- let of all nations, given by the daticing school girls of Denver, beautifully costumed, and the dances were characteristic of the nations represented. + “The pageant came to a elose with 2 tremendous exhibition of fire-works, bursting of bombs and rockets, ont of which came | flags of all nations, whieh fia ally filled the air qith théir ‘begh- e : “The convention lasted four days, and speakers of interpation- al fame from all over the world addressed the sessions on a mul- titnde af subjects, but touching mainly on the key note of the convention, which was ‘the ad- vanrement of understanding, good will and international peace throngh a world fellowship of busjness and. professionel . men, ted in the Rotary ideal of ser- vice.’ Great Seating Capacity “The Denver stadium ba 35,- 000 people in the grandstand and 10,000. in the bleachers.

At the convention were nearly 9,000 Ro- tarians with their families and friends. “On Thursday afternoon the Rotarians were invited to the Cheyenne Frontier Days show. Here we were entertained with the cowboys and cowgirls riding wild steers; cowboys and cow- lraces, trick and fancy roping and \Indian war dances. One of the |most interesting contests was the |competition in cow. milking, open to all Rotarians. It was funny land amusing. The Rotarian who won the contest received a silver jeup, for getting about a teaspoon- ful of milk, the others. getting only a few drops and spme none at all. “All Denver, its citizenship and every elub carried out the idea of service in its fullness. It might be demonstrated by one lit- tle experience. Standing on a street corner in a sort of dilema as to how to reach my destina- tion, a newsboy. came running across the street, I thought to sell me a paper—but he said, ‘Mister, is there somewhere you’ want to go; is there something I can do lfor you?’ That was the spirit that ereeted the Rotarians in Denver and the spirit for progressive jtimes to follow. “Leaving Denver on Friday af- ternoon it was my good fortune |to come in contact with a number of Rotarians who gave me many |valuable ideas and points of view. One of the most interesting | stretches of the road was that of the Great Salt Lake Cut-Off, as it. is called, where the railroad, like our Key West extension, goes out to sea. The line of. the {Southern Pacific is built in an jcin, Utah, for 103 milés. The 80 miles over the Great Salt Lake was built by driving California trees’ 100 feet down jn the lake and literally shoveling the moun- tain down in the lake for a road- hed.

It is from the time the train stopped. “the ferry started across on the way to Berkeley, Calif.

On one side of the jstreet it was warm in the sun- | shine, while on the opposite side in the shade an overcoat was-com- fortable. “On the Pacific coast from San Francisco to San Diégo there is a fog every morning that does not lift until about 10 o’elock. They depend on this for moisture for vegetation, otherwise it would not survive during the long periods without rain. “After spending 2 days in San Francisco, I arrived jn Los An- geles the following. Wednesday. Los Angeles has ghout a ‘million people and covers about 400 miles in area. Its principal business, as you all know, is movies.
