WILLIMANTIC

ar | home are taught to assume responsgbiHty when. they are old enough to assume 1t. The things told us time ana again by our parents. take shape in our lives. is the | same repetition cs events in rotary that | do this thing. and sometimes we tire of hearing them. but it is good that we should continually hear them. One of | the greatest men of our country had for | his statement, "every great institution Is | but the lengthening shadow of some | single man. Many workers in the in- | .surance business think the greatest se- curity of the insurance business is the | surplus This is not 50, 1t is: the invest ment of the reserve The surplus win cover loss In tell new men the principle of any business, men who have been in that business for years benefit by hearing l the old story told again. The find new food for thought at each hearing
 The greatest gift in the world is the power to translate thought into lang uage Ex-President Woodrow Wilson had this power and when the leading men in other countries tried to explain what
 the great war was being fought for, Will 1 son stated his views and welded the allies
 into ono. in thought and action. People lack constancy, they are not pulling to- | gether today. Look at the funny things
 we are doing in this country today Congress repeals daylight saving, where | by people can be awake through an ex- tra hour of daylight and sleep through an extra hour of darkness. Our own state
 legislature srepeals daylight saving. How many people know what time 1t really Is lexcept by the clock? If our clocks were
 changed by unseen hands none of us | would notice any change as long as our clocks pointed out certain hours. We
 would govern our living by the clock.
 People today are mentally indoient.
 They don't want to think. they want every problem they see in the newspaper
 solved in that same article. The mA- 3orfty of people let others do their think
 ing for them. Rotary means that prob lems are to be solved and rotarians have
 problems to solve. The clubs carry out
 business reforms and that Is why TO- ii tarians are mNl who think, men who in
 their line try to do the best they can.
 Rotary is not selfish it does things but
 asks no credit Everything comes to a
 man in the performance of his duty, and little things, the controlling power of
 greater things, carefully hourished, bring l success.
