PIANIST'S AUTO STARTED FIRE IN MAN’S COAT POCKILT In a letter to a Norwich friend Edward IMm‘ris, ‘who is soon to appear in a piano recital in this city, writes of a novel ex- | perience he had a day or two ago while driving out to the golf course at Roanoke, Va. His car struck a young man who suddenly darted out from behind a street car, spun the fellow around and set off a bunch of matches that was in the man's pocket. A cloud of smoke pouring out of the young man's pocket added a com- edy clement to the accident, especially as he was not injured. But Mr. Morris was ; arrested and fined for speeding.

But this year the committee far exceoded all expecta- tions and Tuesday night's event will go down in the Raqtary history of the three cities, Norwich, New London and Willi- mantic, as the best ever—until mnext year. There was not one dull moment during the whole evening from the sing- ing of America until the “Good Night Ladies” at the end of the dancing. The committee overlooked nothing for the enjoyment of the guests and the guests were generous with hearty praise for the untiring efforts of ithe committee to make the affair a success. Prommptly at 7 o'clock the 202 mem- bers of the Norwich. New London and Willimantic clubs with their guests, as- sembled in the beautifully decorated din- ing hall of the hotel. The hall was beautiful in its decorations of cut flowers, palms and toy balloons and the many beautiful gowns of the women added a pleasing harmony of color to the scene. Around th: hall were palms, flowering shrubs and festoons of many colored bal- joons and on the tables were handsome baskets of cut flowers and at each place was a beautiful bouquét of sweet peas for the guests. Back of the head table were the Rotary banners of the three clubs and two large American flags. The decorations were by Otto F. Ernst, ‘who spared no time or exertfon to make the scene one of great beauty. After the singing of America and the asking of the blessing by Rev. llam A. Keefe, the guests were seated and joined in the singing of the Rotary songs under the energetic and Inspiring lead- ership of William G. “Bill” Park and his megaphone. After the singinz of several of the “get acquainted” sort of Rotary songs President Lucius Brizes in a short ress of welcome’ extended the heartiest of wishes to the guests for a most enjovable evening which marked the second annual “Ladies’ Night.” Seated at the head table with Presi- dent and Mrs. Lucius Briggs were Mayor and Mrs. Herbert H. Lerou, Prof. and Mrs. Henry A. Tirrell, Judge and Mrs. Frank A. Foss of Willimantic, Coneliuos C. Costello and Miss Wil Tondon, President Valentine Murphy the W antic club, Past President and Mrs. Joseph C. Worth of Norwich and Rev. Willlam A. Keefe. After the ladies had introduced them- selves by standing and singing Let the Rest of the World Roll By, the follow- ing menu was served: x of New Grape Fruit Cream of Aspa Celery Roast Cardinal Milk Fe Apple Sause Potato Croquettes Green Peas Lettuce apd Tomato Salad “Fréench Bread Rotary Ice Cream en Surprisg Petit Fours Demi-Tasse Cigars Clgaretts During the dinner there was some spirited singing by the various tables, by the men and women, Intermingled with a world of good natured banter. They sang the Prairie Flower song with all its embellishments and alos the Farm Song in very effective mamner. One of the features announced as being especiaily for the benefit of those addicted to the radio habit was a radio instrument set up in one end of the room, over which came sweet music and a clear and in- spiring message of the spirit of Rotary trom Crawford C. McCuliough. president of International Rotary. was so clear and lacked that continual of the guests were slightly suspicious of the instrument, but had the assurance of Joe Weymouth, who installed the ma- chine, that it was a real Ronest-to-good- ness collector of messages from the air. Distribution of Gifts. According to a custom conceived at the first “ladies’ night,” there was the dis- tribution of gifts by number. Tach guest had a number and these numbers were drawn by Frank H. Foss and “Conny” receive a gift should open it on the spot. Now when a woman receives a pipe or a box of clgars and a man receives a pair of silk stockings or some other article of femmine apparel or a dyed-in-the-wool bachelor receives a bair of baby’'s bootees someone is due for no little jollying and the laugh is on them. This was the case In nearly all of the gifts given out and s Twist was pleas- Conny presented ation set in honor of Charlie’s wedding anniversary. Three bank accounts were opened dur- ing the evening through the generosity of Charles R. “Buttsie” bankbook with an entry on it to the youngest member ot each club. For New London, Jack Spencer took the book for his 7 months old son, for Willimantic, Ray Parker carried home the book for his 1 year old boy, and for Norwlch, Clint Lane was credited with having the youngest boy. Mayor Lerou Speaks. While waiting for the Darktown Strut- ters to mut on their regalia for the min- strels which concluded the evening’s en- tertainment before tne aancing, Presi- dent Briggs called on Mayor Lerou for a short address. Mayor Lerou in hig talk extended a cordlal welcome to guests in the city, saying that he was sorry but he could mot turn over the keys of the city to them because there were no keys, for the latchstring of Norwich was always out to the world. In speaking of Rotary, Mayor Lefou said that little did Paul Harris realize when he started that little club in Chicago 17 years ago that he had started an organization that would encircle the world. The principles back of Rotary, which are summed up in the Rotary motto—Service Above Self—have given the organization am impetus that will never die, for Rotary stands for all that are good. Mayor Lerou told of via- iting the Chicago Rotary chib and other for humanity. I ho™ my membership in Rotary. said Mayor Lerou. among the most valuable of my possestions. President Valentine Murphy of Willl- mantic Rotary club was then called upon to speak. Pres'dent “Val” told of how Rotary came to Willimantic lke a day in spring and how its spirit had become in- stilled in the hearts of the Willimantic members. He also pald a touching trib- ute to the women who. while not active members of Rotary, play a large part in Rotary spirit. Conny Costello, past president of the New London club, spoke for President “Jim"” Sullivan of New London and con- veyed Jim's best wishes for a happy evening. He also congratulated the Norwick club on having its new president, William G. Park and on ths work of the two pre- ceding president, Joseph C. ‘Worth , and Lucius Briggs. He spoke of the wonder- ful feeling that has been created be- tween New London, Norwich and Willi- mantic through the Rotary clubs. -+ Rotary Promotes Friendiiness | Rev. William A.

Butts, who gave a clubs in the country where the Rotary | spirit has and is doing wonderful things has done for Norwich. This club has ty members and meets every week in the year so just think that during the past two years there have ben 6,000 hand- shakes, 6,000 chats and 6,000 friendly greetings and you can realize what these will do to promote the spirit of friendli- ness among the people of Norwich, The business man leaves the Rotary meeting with a smile and goes back to his business and passes that smile on to everyone whom he mesets. ' Rotary teaches honor, friendliness, good citizenship and loyal- ty to the flag and nothing has done so much to make these facts evident in Nor- wich as Rotary. Rofary has been the means of cementing a wonderful com- munity spirit in Norwich that will always be a monument to it. Rotary Spirlt of Years Ago Prof. Henry A. Tirrell in his talk took an entirely new line of thought when he said that New London and Windham county had men years and years ago who ‘while not privileged to belong to Rotary clubs had that same Rotary spirit in their Jhearts. Delving in hitory Mr. Tirrell brought out some iInteresting featfures to illustrate that spirit of Service Above Self. Von Humboldt, the great sclentist said thai inere was one place in the world where menfect conditions existed, and he referred to a little section of Con- necticut within a radius of 15 miles of New London. The Adams Express com- pany was first started between Norwich and New London; the first turnpike ir America in the United States was between Norwich and New London; the first tun- nel in America was the one at Taftville; the master and mate of the Savannah: the first steamshin to cross the Atlantic, were nattves of New London; Perry of Lake Erie fame was the son of Norwich ancestry; Dartmouth colleze was first founded in Lebanon: John Ledyard the traveler and explorer was a native of this section and the form of the Am can flag was suggested by Chester Reed, a native of Norwich. All thesa men had that seirit of Rotarv instilled in their hearts and now will New London and Windham counties carry on that spirit of service above self. Darktown Sirutters Appear At the conclusion of Prof. Tirrell's talk the curtain was drawn aslde from the platform at one end of the hall revealing the Darktown Strutters in all their blackened glory. What those strutters dld’ we” a caution; they sang, they danced and they told storles and every minute was a laugh. From the time “Joe' Worth opened with his solo “Ma”. until “Biu Park concluded with his ‘Strut Miss Liz- zie” the smiles never Ift the faces of the audience and sides ached with the continu- ed laughing. Fach and every one was an artist and each was recalled many times to repeat his number. Several of the Strutters were presented flowers while “Bert” Gager at the end of his number was given a heapirg plate of good things ich “Bert” appreciated much more n flowers. The Six Brown Brothers scored heavily in their musical number as did Henry Fontaine in his so- lo number. The ‘Two Rivssea” Clapp and Smith. presented a novelty radio sketch that was a scream and included # number of local hits. The programme was as follows: Opening chorus, Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes, Wild Rose. Wabash Blues; Ma. Joe Worth; T Ain't Nobody's Darling.
