LIBRARY NOTES

There is decided tendency anon.
try to get away from the cheap farce'
and melodramas of other years ant
to produce plays of literary and art
Iistic merit.
Many towns no larger than Black
foot have a dramatic league to en-
courage the presentation of plays that
broaden and educate. Native ability
in the writing of the play, arranging
the settings and designing the cos
TUNES is searched out.
Sometimes a very definite contribu-
ton is made to the drama as at the
University of North Carolina, where
the students have written some excel
lent plays founded on the folk lore
and history of the state, have made
their own scenery and produced the
plays so well that the magazines are
devoting much space to their activi-
ties.
On the library table you will find
the Theatre Arts magazine-this
month it has some interesting pic
lures of the famous Moscow Art Thea
tire that has just been brought over
from Russia and is hailed by dramatic
critics as the most perfect cast OF
actors in the world today.
We also have on our shelves some
very fine boks of dramatic criticism
and plays by the men Of today.

Extracts from speech given by Rex
Dunlap at the Clubs Anniversary
Luncheon, Thursday, January 18th

In January, 1915, a small group o
virile, progressive business men me

Michigan, and seeking an avenue o
expression for ideals which they sew
orally had formulated, organized |

Few organizations, if any, enter up
on their carriers with a scheme of
organization and plan of action so
complete that subsequent growth will
not require that copious revisions be
made. Even the Constitution of the
United States, a document of mary
elous flexibility and the product Of
uncanny forethought on the part of
its trainers, has been amended min
teen times. No evidence exists to
show that any national or interna-
tional organization of Kiwanis clubs
was contemplated by those associated
with the establishment and leader
ship of the first club. The present
Kiwanis plan of organization is a
product of evolution. ~
But the possibilities of the move
ment became evident early, and as
the high purposes of the institution
became more and more apparent to
the business world, a development
began which is almost without par
allel in the history of business mems
clubs. Kiwanis is now represented
in 906 progressive communities of the
United States and Canada.
1t is not the purpose of Kiwanis
clubs to attempt to supplant, or in.
any degree usurp the prerogatives Of
the Chambers of Commerce. The XII
wants club is a division of civic or
anization whose obsession, if for the
purpose of emphasis we may use the
word, is cooperation and upbuilding

Kiwanis membership, formed by the
careful and discriminating selection
of the most representative men in

Of leading business and professional
men, including one man and his COM

This dual representation makes for
a democracy and integrity within bus
mess circles which are automatically |
to every phase of So
cial and civic activity.
Business reciprocation is neither |
a stated nor implied obligation be-
tween Kiwanians. Kiwanians would
not stoop to the selfishness of such
q proposition. The man who sees in
Kiwanis a ready-made business eli

Growth of Kiwanis
The first Kiwanis Club was organ
lied at Detroit, Michigan, in January
1915. During the following year, two
more clubs were established, one at
Cleveland and the other at Pittsburgh.
In the second year IS clubs were es-
tablished and in the third year 80
more clubs were added to the list, so
that on January 1, 1918, there were
70 clubs. At the time of the Birming
ham Convention in 1919, there were
1873 clubs with about 1890 members.
Two years later, at the time of the
Cleveland Convention in June, 1921,
there were 533 clubs with a member
ship of 1870. When the clubs con-
vened at Toronto in June, 1922, there
were SOP clubs and 6S,101 members
in the International organization. In
the six months which have interviewed
between the Toronto Convention and
December 18th, the clubs have in
creased to 906 and the membership to
1878.
The Mission of Kiwanis
The mission of Kiwanis in a COM
munity is not in the largest sense the
of a specific thing.
The mission is two-fold. First, it

FORBIDS SECOND TERM FOR CHIEF EXECUTIVE
Senator Harris Will Introduce Con-
 stitutional Amendment

WASHINGTON, August 13.-Among the legislative cues which will be proposed at the next session of Con gress for relieving the President of some of his burdens is Constitu- tional amendment which Senator Harris (Dem., Ga.) will introduce, limiting the chief executive to one tenn of six years and making him ineligible for reelection.
 Senator Harris offered such an amendment at the last session of Congress, but it failed to make prog ress.
 Congress. since 1926, repeatedly has been urged to impose Constitutions restrictions prohibiting the Presl- oent from serving second term. The effort was constant in each Con gross up to 1S46, but no progress was made during that period. It was revived in 1864, after lapse ot IS years, when Congress rejected the amendment.
 Since then it has been renewed with each Congress, progressing Tn 1912 to the point of favorable re- port from the house committee on judiciary, which stated that the linn itatiens of single term will, Tn the opinion of your committee, tend to improve the administration of the laws generally and to increase the non-partisan and business-llke CT ficiency of the executive depart ment."

NEW YORK, August 13.--"France has the only definite policy in Flu rope at the present time, and it is good thing she has," declared Willis Booth, president of the International Chamber of Commerce, who arrived Monday on the Leviathan after two months tour of the Ruhr.
 The whole problen of Europe hinges on the Ruhr. There are D. 00o, 600 people in this region, and there are 152 highly developed coal properties and, steel properties which are adjacent.
 q am convinced that France will not come out of the Ruhr until she eets a definite settlement and until she gets it she will remain there ana protect her interests.
 "The German problem hinges on the attitude of England, She is fur therlng her old ideas of maintaining balance of power in Europe, ana Is siding with the weaker nation, as She always has done.
