GRITIC AND FRIEND MAN'S PROPER ROLE. Minister Tells How to Have| Spirit of Brotherly Love A plea for the mams loyalty among Rotarians as that found in the family circle, where members eriticize each other's faults without | mercy, but stand ready to defend gach other with their lives, if neces- ary, was made to the New Britain ;:omr_v club yesterday by Rev. Wil- | liam H. Alderson. The address, which follows, was | Jrinted in part in the Herald yes- | tprday. It is printed in full today 1t the request of a number of Ro- {prians, | “My subject today is ‘Being at| Home in Rotary. I think I am one | of the latest if not the last mem-| ber to join this Rotary club, T have| been a member but a few weeks yet | T already feel pertectly at home in this tellowship. Rotary means many ! things to each one of us. There is not time today to discuss more than | one phase of its meaning, and I{ ahould like for us a little together to | take a phase which perhaps we do | not usually consider, Every man | here has had the experlence of sit- | ting by the seashore and watching the moon rise out of the ocean. You all know how the glow of the moon ma ies a golden path directly to your fee. A hundred thousand people mizht sit on the same beach and watch the very same moon rise and every one would see a different gold- en path. “By the very same reason as we ink of Rotary perhaps each one ses a different view, but 1 want us, bor* d together by the bonds of Ro- tary, to get so closs to each other to” y that we may be able to look @' 1 the same path together and r ur Rotary relationship from the ¢ % from which I wish you to (11 of them with me. That angle e sund in our subject, ‘Being at be . te in Rotary.’ “Some years ago before the days | of the radio and the wireless there | set out on an Arctic expedition | 2 group of explorers who made their home in one of the northern | count-ies of continental Europe With them they carried a coop pigec s and at various stages of the journ=y, one of these birds was re- | lease” with a message tied around fts foot. It flew unerringly back to | the home cottage In Europe. Somo | mon later when the Arctic win- | matter how far away he has strayed ter had frozen the explorers in, and all communication with the outside world was shut off, they still had | some of these pigeons in their pen and from time to time the leader of the expedition would release one of these birds with its message. on its release the pigeons would cir- cle around two or three times in the blackness of the Aretic night and| then start off straight as an arrow, flying across a thousand mil of frozen sea and another thousand | miles of frozen wildernees until it | sought out one particular little cot- | tage in that north European village | and there settled to rest, bringing! its message to the anxlous wife of | the explorer frozen in the north. “One marvels at that strange in- net n the bosom of a pigeon hich permits it, even though it s been carried thousands of miles om home, to fly stralght back again, yet T submit to you that in- stinct in the bosom of the pigeon is no more remarkable perfaps not eo remarkable as the same urge that is in your bosom or mine no matter how far we stray away from home. No matter how many miles of land or séa separate us from the place we call home there comes those periodic longings which makes t least in thought and if poss! our footsteps turn toward home, We | are just about the eve now of one| of our annual festival season when we all think of home, Every man no | lets his mind wonder back toward | home at Thanksgiving time. “Whenever I mentlon home thers comes up in the mind of each one| of us a picture; 1t {8 not the same in your mind that it is in mine. I ses the place that I call home, you ses another entirely different place which you call home; but to each | one of us that place represents cer- | tain characteristics and in spits of| ourselves we find ever so often e | strange urging to make our way| back to that home. I am a long ways | The day flowers bloom and the sky | from home, as many of you men are. Business cares, professional en- gagements, our own famlly life, many things keeps us from making | that fourney back. But we all feel the urge to return to the scene of our boyhood daye REWARD | A | NEW BRITAIN DALY HERALD, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1925. “Why may we not make Rotary one of our highest endeavors to have this Rotary club a home for every man here? “May I say first of all that I think it would ge a good thing if we could have the same kind of friendship that we have {n our Rotary club that have in our homes. I know of no other place where the bonds of (riendship are quite so strong as they are in the four walls of our home, There is nothing that will carry a man through the storm and strees of life quite eo safely as having a true friend in the time of that storm. There s nothing that counts quite so much in the time of business re. verse, change of fortune, sudden un. expected disaster, as to have some one come in to play the part of a veal friend. Nothing sends & man on his way quite so quickly with a new flash to his eye and a new erectness to his shoulder as to have some o! to put a hand in a friendly way on his back and say ‘buck up old fellow, still your friend.’ “It would be a tremendous thing to every man {n this club if that spirit of friendship might constantly prevail. One who has never struck a rough place in life’s path does not know just how much it means. I am asking each ons of you toda as Roterlans to go out of your way to promote here the same kind of splendid unselfish friendship that we have for each other in our hor “‘Who cares for the burden ¢t night and the rain, Or the long steep lonesome roa When through the darkness a | shines plain? volce ghouts ‘Hail' and draws rein, With an arm for the stubborn load, we a friend I For light 18 a chance of a friend or two, This side of a journey's goal Though the world be a desert the the whole night throug! shows blue When a soul salutes a soul.’ “The second theme which I wish we could promote here is & spirit of friendly criticlsm like that we have in our own homes father {# a minister, he Is engaged which in the same profession that is my |better oft by accepting that eriti- calling, and when ever I go home |cism and endeavoring to profit by for a visit we always compare notes | it. about running a church?
