Rotarian ladies were entertained last
evening by the Rotary club in the
dining rom of the Mckenzie hotel
The tables were beautifully decorated
with pumpkins, corn shocks, flowers

An address by Senator Alfred

the swiftness of progress in the last
century in comparison with the cen
turtles of the past. The spread of
Rotary and its ideals through 81
countries and the great possibilities
of peace and understanding through
this meeting of men on common
ground were stressed by the speaker
Mr.. Steele added that for the Anglo
Saxon people to give the world their
racial ideas of freedom and justice
through the service club would be a
great accomplishment.

and gave a short talk. Judge w. L.
