are Invited.
The Kiwanis Club that has meant
so much to our community since its
organization here a few months ago,
has again invited guests to dinner
at Hotel Inez as will be seen in an
other column. The date is Thursday,
Jan. 5th, and the hour is $50 in the
evening. 1t will be large affair as,
Of course, every invited guest will
phone President Perkins acceptance
of the invitation so graciously ex-
tended Supervisors of our county, the
City Council and their wives, the Of
ficers of the Kings Daughters, of the
League of Women Voters and of the
Peripatetics and of the Climbers.
"Our Brothers Keeper" is the theme
suggested by the President in his
well-written ad.
We cannot account for 1t exactly,
but it seems to us that there is deep
meaning and rugged principle in ev-
cry program and in every undertake
When ministers Of God like DR.. c.
w. Crisler, Rev. Robt. Selby and
others of all creeds lock hands with
Kiwanians. it is enough to convince
the most skeptical that the heart Of
the organization throbs for truth and
righteousness. Men like these gen.
tlemen Of the cloth, who are just
bench members" Of the churches are
helping to supply the missing link
between Christianity and the practi-
cal work-a-day affairs Of the world,
thru the Kiwanis Clubs.
The Kiwanis Clubs believe with
Carl Shurz that ideals are like stars,
you cannot touch them with your
hands but like the seafaring man on
the desert of waters, you choose them
as your guides, and, following them,
you reach your destiny"
We think 1t was in the May num-
Der of the Kiwanis Magazine that
"The Golden Rule In Business" was
exploited in an article as 1t had been
in his big clothing business by Ar
thur Nash and the standard seemed
thru his experience to be set for the
whole world of business and Of labor.
Said Mr.. Nash:- II have been able
to reach only one conclusion, and
that is that all our social and eco
nomic controversies, hatreds and
strifes come about on account Of
non-application of the universal re-
ligion expressed in the Golden Rule.
And again:- The Golden Rule is
the divine law governing human re-
lationships, accepted by all religions,
and proclaimed by all prophets and
teachers of every creed. 1t is the
only infallible, workable, industrial
and economic law in the universe to-
day. I do not say it has solved all
labor troubles in our factory; nay,
it has done more, 1t has eliminated
all labor troubles during this trying
industrial period Of the worlds
history. I do not say 1t has driven
out hatred, strife, and self1shness; 1t
has done more, 1t has ushered in love
contentment. cooperation and happi-
ness; it has not only cast out hell,
but has brought heaven to us"
This is only sample of what XII
wanians believe; but cit covers the
ground" Religion must catch up
with industry. God has given as in
fallible a law governing human re-
lationships as the law of gravitation
and all that is lacking for its opera
tion at this far off day from the time
of Isaiah and the prophets of old, is
that conditions have not been made
favorable to it.
Miracles are always wrought
where divine law is invoked.
Whenever group of people sin
cerely try to do by each other as they
would be done by, they soon discover
that they love each other and begin
working for each others interest in
every way" says Mr.. Nash.
Cooperation and fellowship is
what our local Kiwanis club Graves.
Let us give it. And speaking as one
Of the women of the organizations
of our city, we suggest we should do
as we have been done by and tender
to our local Kiwanians entertain
ment to be remembered for its cor
dial courtesy expressed as Brookha-
ven women know how to express re-
ciprocation and commentator for
laudable effort on behalf of our town
and county-which means ourselves!
The Kiwanians' dinner will be the
event of the coming week at the Ho-
tel Inez.
The Municipal Hospital now near
ing completion was the subject for
discussion at the Kiwanis Club lun-
cheon and informing talks were made
by DR.. o. N. Arlington, DR.. N. A.
Mcleod and Mr.. w. D. Davis. The
Kiwan1ans then pledged themselves
as club and individually for the
promotion morally and financially
of the welfare of the municipal hos
pital and directed that the resolu-
tions adopted be published. Reso-
lutions in memory Of Robt. D. More
ton, deceased, were also adopted.
