B¢ | NEW BRIT VISITING ROTARIAN " LAUD NEW BRITAIN ’ S ‘Conference Ends With Praise for “Hardware City of World” The Rotary conference is over, the { delegates have gone home, the com- | mittee members, tired but happy in | the eatisfaction of a good job well done, have resumed their interrupted !routine; the Rotary officers and speakers are loud in their praises of | the “Hardware City of the World,” fand the merits of New F n, its {Rotary club and its institutions are ! being heralded all over the“country. Two crowded busy days of good ! nature, fellowshig§ brotherhood and business, were so imterspersed with wit and humor as to almost make it la matter of entertainment, fun and frolic. The final banquet last eves ning was the culmination of a good time, and 3U5 men, the largest crowd the hotel has handled to date, sat {down to a sumptuous chicken din- ner, marked between courses and sometimes during them by roilicking |songs and good natured jesls. A feature of the menu was ice cream |in the shape of Rotary wheels and in {the blue and gold color of Rotary The last few minutes seemed sin- | i a note of sadness in the alr, and Dis- trict Governor George Cooper's voice |trembled as he bade his friends from the district a farewell, the last time he appears before them in that capacity, and there was little sign of mirth as the crowd of men and a few women clogsed their meeting with the singing of a hymn, “Blessed be the Tie That Binds Our Hearts in Christian Love.” The conference was opened at its first session by Rev. Henry W, Maler, himself a Rotarian, and it seemed a fitting close that its last act should be the singing of a hymn. The banquet opened as did all oth- er sessions with Disirict President Cooper in the chair, It was marked |of “Big Jim Hammond,” secretary of the New London chamber of com- merce, calling for three cheers for | “Governor George and Myra,” Miss Myra being the daughter of the gov- ernor, Endorse Adams for Director. Governor Cooper brought up the fact that there would be a vacancy for international director at the To- ronto conclave next June and. the men informally but unanimously en- dorsed former Pistrict Governor Don Adams of New Haven for: the va- cancy. “I have secn 41 district governors and George Cooper is at the top of the most,” said .

He |said he could not mee any chance for itself, the way it was handled or the hospitality shown. . ‘Rotary,” he said, “cannot be de- fined. It ¥s too broad and too big to be defined, . The minute you d fine it, you confine it.” He said the power that keeps Rotary going is similar to the story of the boy who was seen flying a kite in' a dense London fog. “You can't see the kite,” he was told. "“No, but I can feel it pull,” was the reply. “Do you apply the principles of Rotary to your profession? Do you ask yoursclf, ‘Am I worthy of re- taining my membership?” he quired. pleasant memories of New Britain and frankiy stated that they wanted to come back ggain. “The |by James Romayne Danforth, presie dent of the New London Rotary club, was by far the most eloquent address of the conference. The New don Rotarian-minister painted word | pictures in the course of his address {that made his hearers fairly marvel (&t his vocabulary and delivery. He called attention to the stalac- tites and stalagmites and their grow!k and said that reminded him | of the growth of Rotary. “The ideals |of Rotary were like the stalactites |dripping down from the ecternal { realms above [in human life as it grew to meet them, until at last there was formed a transincent union, a contrast be- formed the soul of Rotary. “It 1s the men of science who are teading us on today, not the prophet or the priest,” he said. “Tt Is the | sctentific man who is leading us into |the field of research, that us that which we call material.” ' Quack!

Now, he said, men are changing their ideas. “Matter is that of which the stars are made, and force is what sends their rays across the boundless wastes from the !infinite beyond. “The spirit which is in all matter must revolutionize all history just as it revolutionizes all natural history. Men have tried to renew the cultural life of nations that have passed. “They have never yet come to the Greek ideal. They have not yet reached the piace to which the Greek poet led them. Why? Be- cause they have been quarrying among the.ruins for the marble form of something that once was. But there was something more than mar- ble that entered into the ancient Greece. The marble will not take form, “It-was an cffort to rehabilitate a great empire in Europe that led our sons and brothers to the great war in Europe. It was an effort to re- build the roads of old Rome, on the part of a once great empire. But there was one thing lacking. The senate, the people and the soul of Rome. They tried to do with legions what a soul alone can do. “There is a soul in the United States thay makes this country differ- ent from anything the world has ever seen. We have the same garments as the rest of the world, but it isn't | the garments or the language we ! speak, it is the spirit of the United States. ‘It 18 so with Rotary. There are | no secrets about Rotary, Anybody can do it. But if they take a club and organize it they cannot do it un- less they put into it some of the un- seen leaven of that great soul of Ro- {tary, that soinething that can be feit | but cannot be seen. { "“Rotary places the old man side by side with the young maen, not as ithe elder or younger but as equals lon the same footing. The old man | profits by the power of the younger +and the other by the wisdom of age. “There are two ideal in Rotary— | human and divine. We call ourselves by our first names because the last name is a group pame, Your first | name is your own—it's’ from jndl. | vidual to indjvidual. “The primary mistake of Germany, that great enfpire to which the world | once went to school, was that instead | of having her ideals come to Berlin | from the citizens, it tried to make ideals in Berlin and hand them dewn to citizens, They wanted to do the whole thing at the. capital, “The great hopé of the United | States is that the nation’s mind is | not made up at Washington, it only finds expression there. Tlie mind jof America is made up in every vile {lage grocery store in the land, where | men sit on the heads of cracker bar- | rels and soap boxes and discuss the ! natlon's problems.

Every- one wants them—everyone may have them. The first great rule for g'oo’d health is to keep the organs of elimination working regularly. Avoid Constipation. Unless the impure matters which are continually accumulating in the body are regularly cleared away, the entire system becomes poisoned and serious ailments may re- sult. If you would enjoy good health, you must first rid yourself of this scourge. “Fruit-a-tives” are the greatest known agent ffor the remedying and prevention of Constipa- * are made of the pure con- icentrated juices of apples, oranges, figs and prunes, with tonics added.
