The Atlanta meeting it seems from
my observation was in every particu-
lar as successful as could possibly
have been hoped for.
The Tuesday meeting before the At
lanta Rotary Club, attended by ap-
proximately $50 Rotarians, was an
ideal initial meeting. giving the Bruins
wick delegation splendid opporturfi-
ty to place before this great body OF
business men, the purpose of their
visit to Atlanta and give considerable
publicity 10 the meeting that was to
be held before the Chamber OF Com
merce the following day. Tom Law,
the president OF the Atlanta Rotary
Club, had the situation well In hand
and appealed to every Rotarian pres
ent not to fail to attend the big meet
ing that was to be held Wednesday a.
