The bridal chorus from Lohengrin was played by Miss Marjorie Kent as the bridal party entered the living room and took their places under an arch trim- med with laurel and white asters, where the ceremony was performed by Rev.

Dr. Blair of Lynn, spoke of the mag- nificent camp that is sponsored by the Lynn club where over 200 boys are given the benefit of play and education in the open. Others from various 4lubs in New England spoke on what their clubs are doing for the boy. Read Paper on Attendance Stimulus of Attendance and Why was the subject of a short paper ‘by Daniel F. Sullivan of Fall River. The matter of attendance is important with every club and it is asolutely necessary to be pro- ductive of good Rotarians. Next to the spirit of fellowship comes attendance and attendance has been talked so much that it might well become the password. The figures on attendance at district head- quarters and international headquarters act as gulde posts to the various clubs. They show up the slacker. Many have the idea that Rotary is strictly social but this is not the case. While there are so- cial features at times the underlying thought of Rotary is service, and fellow- ship. If you do not attend the meet- ings there is a lack of fellowship and there Is also a lack ef co-operation be- tween Rotary and yewrself, the commun- ity and the club. The meetings should be made Interesting and notices sent out should be attractive. The meeting should appeal to the senses, good food for the taste, good music for the hearing and the hearty handelasp of fellowship for the sense of touch. You can not get any- thing out of Rotary unless you attend Rotary meetings. Rotary is doing you - WILLIAM G. PARK President of Norwich Rotary Club Norwich was put on the New England Rotary map Tuesday when the ldcal club conducted the breakfast meeting on the second day of the fall conclave of New England Rotary which is in session at the Griswold hotel at Eastern Point, this week. The whole breakfast meeting was devoted to Norwich and the local club let it be known that The Rose of New Eng- land was still doing_business at the old The Norwich Rotary b met at the Groton end of the Thames rlver bridge at 7.15 o'clock just as the morning sun broke tnrough the fog clouds, giving promise of real Rotary fair weather. Norwich delegation, which numbered about 100, a parade to the Griswald was made. At the hotel the local Rotarians, in their straw hats, white shirts, blue ties, blue coats and white trousers and shoes, each wearing a biue ribbon arm band on which was “Norwieh Rotary” in gold letters, headed by Past President Joseph C. Worth, carrying the American flag and followed by James P. Madden and Frank Welsh bearifig the Norwich Rotary banner, marched into the hotel and teok pessession for the breakfast meeting. Colt's Armory band, George Matz leader, played for the marching and alse rendered selections during the break- fast. Willlam G. Park, president of the lo- cal club, presided at the meeting and The singing of the Norwich ¢lub was very spirited and the meeting proved to be one of the most enjoyable of the many that have been held. Norwich Rotary Song Makes Hit One of the pleasing features of the meeting and one that took the meeting by storm was the introduction of the Norwich Rotary song, Rotary Forever, composed by Henry J. La Fontaine, who also wrote the words for the music. The ; band played the selection through once and then ‘the Norwich club rose and sang it. There was a burst of ap- plause and insistent demands for the au- thor. President Park then presented Mr. La Fontaine who was given a real ava- tion to which he responded by leading the singing of the song again. Another feature of the morning meet- ing was the several solos by Frank Broderick of Hartford, soloist of the band. Mr. Broderick’s selections met with the hearty approval of all. Greeting to Governor ‘When Gov. Everett J. Lake who is staying at the hotel during the conclave entered the breakfast room he was greet- ed with “Hail to the Chief.” the diners standing until His Excellency was seated. Songs and solos occupied the rest of the meeting and then adjournment was taken for the business session which was held in the ball room of the hotel. Business Session At the business session Judge Robert W. Hill, of Salem, Mass, governor of: the Thirty-first district presided. The at- { tendance at the meeting was large and many of the women guests attended. In opening the meeting Judge Hill said that in order to get the most of a Rotary conclave, Rotary must be talked and that was what was going to be done at this session. Delegates come to these conclaves to carry back something to the home club that will benefit and promote Rotary. Mr. Hill read telegrams from Crawford C. McCullough, past interna- tional president, and F. W. Peale of the Mexico City club wishing the New Eng- land conelave a successful meeting. Mr. Peale is to devote a year of his time in spreading the gospel of Rotary in South America and the West Indies. Charles Lovett of Lynn, past district governor was introduced to the meeting and sald that it seemed like old times to speak to Rotarfans and when I am with HENRY J. LA FONTAINE Author of Norwich Rotary Song a service In showing you the way to serve. When you realize this and get Rotary you will need no other stimulus. Who For New Members? John P. Deering of the Biddeford- Saco club made a brief talk on the Qualifica- tion of New Members saying that these are three, physical, mental and moral. First, a man must present himself at the meetings of the Rotary club at ey- ery luncheon, take part in activities and do the physical duties that are called for. The mental and moral qualifications are that he shall exemplify the meaning Rotarians like this it is the sweetest|or «Service Above Self” and when he moments of my life. has this, he is a good Rotarian. He may Educating Rotarians perform his physical duties well but he In introducing the first scheduled | must have more. He must have the speaker of the meeting Judge Hill said that the Salem club owes much to George Ashton, its founder and first president, and that George would speak on “Educa- tion of New Members and Old,” a topie that shoyld interest every true Rotarian. Mr. Ashton was received with enthusiasm spirit of helpfulness to the community and to his fellow man. He must have the happiness of the community at heart and he can not have it without having the spirit of service instilled in his soul. Problems of Secretaries Ge, £, Tucker, and immediately went to the heart of his | Geor8® . Tucker, seeretary of the : : Hartford club, gave a very interesting subject. Education in Rotary is in Een-| a1y on Secretaries’ Problems. Mr. eral neglected, said Mr. Ashton. Many Tucker said that he had been given only ten minutes to talk and if any one | could tell the problems that the secretary {has in ten minutes he was not human but dlvine. Just a few of the problems the secretary has is the matter of qual- ifications, program for meetings, boys' work, protecting the club against those that have some scheme to boost, seeing that the lunches satisfy, listening to suggestions that the by-laws be changed, taking care of the correspondence, dues, bills. telephone calls, publication writing, drafting resolutions and a few more duties. The secretarial duties are heavy but 1t is a question where the president’s duties and the secretarial duties diverge The secretary must be familiar with the constitution and by-laws and if the law- president in their zeal to give large pro- | grams lose sight of the fundamentals of Rotary that we love. In most clubs there is a talk by a local member on his business or a talk by some outsider on an up-to-the-minute topic. Thesa are fine things and I do not mean to eriticize when 1 say that one meeting every month should be devoted to Rotary education. We speak continually of attendance, but do not say enough ahout education in Rotary. When asked about Rotary, what | it is and why, we are tongue-tied, that | is a large number of us. A fiye-minute talk at each meeting on Rotary would do antold good. In order to tell abont Re= tary we must learn about it.
