not as they should be, but these condi-
tions were soon forgotten when the
members got down to business.
The first business was the reading
by Secretary Harry Greayes of a letter
from the Rotary Club of Camden and
Philadelphia. w. W. Stewart, the
Rotary Clubs secretary, wrote the
Board Of Trade, thanking them for the
very generous reception they had re-
ceived in their recent excursion here.
He stated that every member Of the
club returned home with q feeling that
they had had the time of their lives,
and their only regret was that their
yearly excursion was not a weekly af-
fair.
The secretary then read an epistle
from Mr.. Gray, the aviator. In 1t the
blrdman offered to take up a passenger
ia his aeroplane and attempt to lower
the present record of four hours and
thirty-two minutes which Is held by
an army officer. This he would do,
following the closing of bis engage
ment of sixty day flights and five
night trips. He would make an at
tempt to lower the record for the sum
