it is upon this theory that many

tary of the south Bend association,
has rendered his resignation 70 be-

rotary and through unusually ca
pable service became membership
and social secretary and finally dur
ing the past year was hOnored by
the board Of directors with the act
ing secretaryship of the association
Not only has Mr.. Nitsche filled
a valuable place in the local pro-
gram, but he mas contributed TO the
state wide activities of the associa-
ton. He was the originator Of the
statewide membership campaign
scheme which is now being carried
out. He was a member of the state
membership committee of five to
promote these annual canvasses.
His services have been enlisted as
a lecturer at the Lake Geneva sum-
mer school.
During the May war work cam
paign of last spring he was the dis
trict executive secretary for nine
counties which contributed a total of
something like $4,000 for army ser
vice work. He was again district ex-
ecutive secretary in the Novem Der
campaign covering four counties
which raised something like S73,-
600 under the Craftsmanship of Mar
vim Campbell.
When the local directors accept
ed Mr.. Nitsche's resignation they
did so reluctantly and with hearty
expressions of appreciation for his
service in the local association
cause.
