at the best time of the year for us tx
! handle that problem.
President I. B. Koch said that tn,
fact that it is the American Legior
that proposes to meet here is all oul
people need to stimulate as. 1t is al
4 opportunity to show our appreciation

Mr.. j. C. Dolan,
Flagstaff, Arizona,
Dear Mr.. Dolan: This will acknow-
ledge your kind invitation to meet
with the RotaIians on the 9th.
| find it impossible to be with you
on that date because I feel that |
must meet with the other members OF
the Board in Phoenix to arrange a
budget and discuss appropriations
with the legislature now in session.
| wish you would say to the Ro-
tarians that there will be a few mi
nor changes made at the Normal. but
that 1T IS the intention of the pres
ent board not to permit politics, re-
hgion or anything else to interfere
with the efficiency and progress Of
the Normal.
Say that we hope to secure from
the Legislature an appropriation for
gymnasium and sufficient funds to
make other Improvements, also to
build 18 or 20 new cottages.
1t is our desire to have the Nor
mai make progress and stand out as
a leading educational institution. We
are looking forward to the largest at
tendance we have ever had at the
coming summer school,
The present board appreciates how
well you and Mr.. Powers have cared
for the matters Of the Normal and
we desire, at this time, to thank YOU
for your words of encouragement and
tender of assistance.
Mr.. Proctor and | will be pleased to
have you request the cooperation,
not only of the Rotarians, but of all
the good citizens Of the north in an
effort to make the Northern Arizona
Normal not only a good Normal, but
the best in the state.
Thanking you and the other Ro-
tarians in advance for your cooper
alton, | am, with kindest personal re-
CARDS,
Yours very respectfully,
JAS. KENNEDY.

lowed by applause.
