METHODS TALK ENJOYEDBY
ROTARIANS At FRIDAY LUNCHEON MEET

most entertaining and instruc-
tive talk on automotive lubrication
ana the fundamentals of business
administration was delivered before
the members OF the Augusta Rotary
Gun at splendidly attenCcd Inn
cheon meeting at the Augusta House
Friday evening, by Irving Richard
SON. Service Engineer Of the Vacuum
Ni Company. Besides the talk by
Mr.. Richardson, the meeting of last
evening was noteworthy for the spirit
ana pep which Yves instilled into
every man present largely through
the efforts of the inimitable Il Fran
CHS MacNichol aseieader.of the group
singing. Mac was in a happy and
somewhat analytical frame of mind,
and his insistence that the four score
or Rotarians present should estab-
!ish new records in their rendition of
the favorite songs, brought forth
tremendous volume and some beau
tiful harmony.
The usual fine luncheon was enjoy
ed, with the snappy singing inters-
persed between the courses. Presi-
dent Paul Sargent spotted Rotarian
sam Tobey at one of the corner
abroad for several months he was
called upon to say word of his
trip. Mr.. Tobey on hi~ feet admitted
that he was inadequate to the oc-'
casion and purchased his release
from the required speech by distriD-'
uting to those present rs German
paper notes of ten million marks de-
nomination each-a total of 100000
marks. In explanation of his NUM-
ficence, MIR. Tobey announced that
this stack of German currency which
he Thought from Europe, cost him
about IT 1-2 good American cents.
Mr.. Tobey told the members of a
visit which he made to the Rotary
Club at Southampton, England, and
spoke of the hospitality of the Eng
Iish brothers and the reception ac-
corded him in the highest terms.
The club was commended for Its
splendid response to the invitation
of the Kiwanis 8 Club to be their
guests at the meeting on Thursday

The invention of glass eyes is lost
in obscurity. Records show that
they were used by the Egyptians,
Romans and Venetians many CEN
turtles ago. The priests as early as
500 B. C. were known to have made
them. The earliest known mention
of the modern form of artificial eyes
occurs in an illustrated work on
surgery written by French surgeon
Ambrose Pare, published in Paris
in 1851.
