With the - 16th anniversary of the founding - of Rotary taking place next week, President Worth spoke on the sig- nificanco of the anniversary. Although the local ciub has been in existence al- most one year, few people outside the membership realize what Rotary is. Some people seem to thiink it is an organization that has to do with wheels. and .some have expressed the opinfon that they thought it was an organization of me- chanics, due largely to the name Rotary, which in thelr idea means “going round.” Their idea of “going round” is. as a mat- ter of fact just what the Rotary move- ment is déing. It is “going round” and going round with, such rapidity that it MOVIE PROVIDED FOR ROTARIAN tary clubs in Scotland, England, Ireland, Spain, France, Egypt, Australia,. China, Japan, India, Hawaii, Philippine Islands and many of the other European, Asiatic and South American countries. =As for mechanics, each individual Js a mechahic. he builds, and builds well, he is a wheel in the great machinery of Rotary which/ is doing work on the principle of Service Above Self. Although these neople have misconceived ideas about Rotary, they still Mave ideas that can be well applied to Retary and Rotarlans. The Rotary platform is based upon human service, It doesn't consider a man a success unless he is 6f the fullest pos- sible value to his fellowmen in helping them to greater happiness, no ~ matter whether he is. a money maker ‘or not. The Rotary club demands fair dealings, honest methods, and high standards in business,” is the theme of the Rotary platform. and its last clause, “He profits most Who serves best,” has béen adopted as the latter part of the official “slogan: “Service Above Self—He Profits Most Who Serves Best.” This thought im- planted in the life of one man spreads te others, and a small group possessing the thought of unselfish service soon creates the desire in other men to do likewise. Hence the rapid spread of the Rotary idea. However, these facts should be borne in mind. lest it be thought that Rotary i8 forcing itself upon the world: The growth of Rotary has beeri ‘sponntaeous. Never at any time has the organization employed a paid orsanizer. On the other hand, extreme care has always been exer- ised in surveying cities and towns which apply for membership, to make sure that such communities are ready for a Rotary club and are of sufficient size'te prowide a membership - of representative men: and still have the membership restricted to one man from each distinctive business or profession, although occasionally one additional representative from the same firm is permitted. This plan of restricted membershio in- sures the fullest possible representation of the community, while at the same time it is impossible for the -membership to become large and unwieldy ; united action is easier with a small group; the diversi- fied representation provides an ideal fo- lrum for the discussion of local problems; no one line of business or_profession can dominate the group,sand the smallness, of the cub permits the enforcement of the attendance rule, which requires that’any member be automaticAlly . removed from the roster if he is absent four times in succession. This insistence upon regular attendancE has given the Rotary club the record of having the largest average at- tendance of all organizations™of pusiness and professional men..In December, 1920, the average for all of the clubs of the United States and Canada was 77.40 per cent. TRotary. it seems, is a “scheol for ser- ce” in which men of hundreds of cities, big and little, g7 ther once a -week, in the middle of the day. have a god time, he- camge well acquainted, open their, mings and hearts to learn, und then seék to ap- ply their lessons so. thoroughly that the world everywherc is learning -to look upon Rotarians as men who do things, and do them willingly and " unselfishly. By improving the indivilual member of the club, each man's business must be conducted on 3 higher plane; this means a finer influence upon all other men of the community engaged in the same line. Turning again to the individual, we find that he becomes a bettcr man in his home life, while his attitide and activities in connection with his town, state and na- tion are ever keener and broader; that is, if he is a true Rotarian, and such, ’it is believed, all men conmected with the organization are striving to be. The world, therefore, welcomes Rotary. For 16 years it has been doing its good work. It seeks not to do big public things of itself. except in emergency instances, but rather to train its membets to be. has encircled the globe, there being Ro- truly helpful every day and in every way. PENDLETON SUIT ON TRIAL OVER § Attorney Hadlai A. Hull was the prin- cipal witness in the trial of the case of Oscar F. Pendleton of Stonington against his brother, Moses A. Pendleton of the sam: place, for a book account of $1,000, which was on trial in New London Wed- nesday before Judge John W. Banks in the superior court. The suit is brought to recover payment for groceries and coa] extending over a period of seven years, while the defendant declares that the account was included in the settle- ment of the estate of their father, Moses Pendleton, in 1916. Attorney Huii was the attorney for the plaintiff in the settlement of the estate, in Which both the partics to the suit were interested. The witness tesn- fied that the account which is in dis- pute was included in the settlement ot the estate. Attorney Hull said that lus client ‘agreed to the ‘settlement of the estate at his suggestion. in a telephone conversation the witness ‘told iiis client thai he.ought to consenf to & sottlement of the estate, which had been omen for several years, and that if litigation were continued the estate- would be used up. Attorney Hull said that he told his client at the time that taking into account the use of the property he had had, the set- tiement which was' finally submitted to would be advantageous to him. At that time the witness called his client’s atten- tiun to the fact that noSettlement could be effected unless all the ‘claims between any and all parties interested were in- cluded in the settlement. Attorney Hull followed the defendant on the stand. The defendant testified 8.230; Underwood, 8, 80: A. Jordan, 7,505; Parker, 7,145 Hahn, 7,025; Hallisey, 7,005; Lewis," 6, 840; J.

OLD STANDBY, FOR JUDGE RESERVES DECISION IN GROTON IRON WORKS The three riatters which .were * the basis of contention at the hearing of the case of the United States Steamship company against the Groton Irem Works in- the superior court in New London Tuesday were taken under cogsideration by Judge John W. Banks, at" the conclu- sion of the hearing about 3.30 Tuesday afternoon. The matters were the “appli- cation of the receivers for instruction re- garding the unclaimed wages fund and the plant fund accounts; the appliéation’ of the receivers for authority to com- mence an action in the nature of an in- | terpleader in the district court of the United States for the district of Connec- ticut and the petition of the Groton lron Works_for an .order directing the pay- ment of the receivers' commitments.. These matters were the subject of con- siderable dispute. The unclaimed: wages and plant fund accounts amounting to about $19.000 are claimed by the United States Sfippinz Board Emergency Fleet Corporation, while the Groton Iren Works considers it as one of the assgts which the receivers were ordered to turn oyer to it last March but which it -contends they refused to do. It was to determine title to these funds that the motion for the interpleader action in the. United States district court was made. This motion was also bitterly contested by the Grotom Iron Works on the ground that the su- perior court which custody of the money had jurisdiction. The order directing payment of receivers’. commitments, was a contest over the payment of claims for materials uscd at the yard from a balance of approximately $50,000 in the hands of the receivers. . - The Groton Iron, Works claims that the shipping board promised to pay these claims under a contract included in the order of the court last March when the plant was ordiered to the Groton Iren Works by the receivers and this is dise puted. The other matters which came up be- fofe jthe court for consideration were settled without difficulty. The applica- tions of Timothy Sullivan, et al, and Robert Y. Menzie, et al, were ordered listed; the claims of the Franklin Md- chine Co. and the Combination Ladder Co., which were disallowed, were ordered returned to the Teferee for a finding of facts; the claim of the Eastern Connec- ACHES AND PAINS SPECIALLY - those ment scatters the. i trales without rul to the af part, soon a 3 handy and used e here for i uflofi'unychmma the pains aches of lumbago, s b Py £12, ticut Power Co. for $5,000 for electrie power firnished the receivers from Aug ust 1, 1819, to March 41, 1326, for the Dlant was settled for $1,000 and ordered to that effect by the court.
