the music as far as the Worcester
m. o. was concerned was called off.
The spirit of Rotarians permeated
the air. Everybody was properly la

most delightful part of the whole
scheme of decorating was the spec

naturally arranged that there isn't
a doubt but what some of those

was then called upon by Chairman
Viles in the following verse:
Introducing Mayor Martin:
We are all very proud Hln Of our ~ IN mayor
He has come here tonight to do the
thing right
Mayor Martin of the Capital City.
Mayor Martin extended to the Ro-
tarians anu the ladies royal well
come in Behalf Of Augusta and he
stated that Augusta is deeply sensi-
Bile Of the honor conferred upon it in
being selected as the place for the
gathering Of Rotarians of New Eng
land at their autumn conclave. Sci.
dom il ever have Augusta citizens
felt tho same pride as they felt when
they found Augusta had been chosen
for the convention, for two-fold rea-
sons: First, because Augusta realizes
that the Rotarians here are leaders
in their professions and businesses
throughout New England; and Sec
ond, on account of the character Of
Rotary itself, Rotary has taught
the world that business and friend
ship can mix.
The mayor spoke Of the effective
work Of Rotarians during the World
War and now in the days Of the re-
construction period when We hear of
acts which are close bordering on
anarchy. and he referred to the
words of Theodore Roosevelt, one of
his last messages before his death,
I'm this country. there Is room but
for one flag, the American Flag
And the mayer then extended Au-
gusta's cordial welcome to the yist-
tors. .-..
