AGAAki1xA1V i " ~ - AV 4EEAAG
r. NJ Gassman was chairman for
1 the day at Rotary Tuesday and his
program was very well worth listen
ing to. DR.. A. j. Mackey, vice-presi-
dent, in opening the meeting, had DR..
Mart F'ronske announce the illness
at home of President Ed Miller, who
just after the meeting Of the week
before came down with flu and had
been pretty sick; but last Tuesday
morning was a lot better and would
be out in a few days.
At Mr.. Gassman's request, John @.
Thomas introduced DR.. Lewis Terman
of Stanford university, saying a lot
of good things about him, and when
DR.. Terman got to his feet he re-
ciprocated. John and another pres
ent-Dr. Fenton of Tempe-had been
pupils under DR.. Terman. DIR. V. M.
! Slipher had missed being his class
mate by graduating from Indiana
university too soon, though Mrs.
| Slipher had been his classmate.
Across the county line from him back
there lived Dr. F. A. Cotton, presi-
dent Flagstaff Teachers college, then
'boy state superintendent of schools" +"
DR.. Terman spoke of business as
one not a business man sees it. There
! has been a tremendous improvement
in business methods and practices in
the last 30 years, and especially in
the last 10 or II years, he said, and
he believes much of this improve
ment is due to the teaching of bet
ter business ideals by Rotary and 9TH
er service clubs. He mentioned al
so the contrast between advertising
now and a few years ago. both in
the greater amount of advertising
now and its greater truthfulness.
Advertising, he said, is responsible
| for many of the modern conveniences
by making their sale great enough
for quantity production and corre-
spondingly reasonable prices.
Abiding to the large amount of
money annually spent for education,
DR.. Terman said that it is large; still
1 it is smaller than the amount annu-
! ally spent for tobacco, also than the
| amount spent for cosmetics. He said
that he disapproves of neither tobac-
co nor cosmetics, using the illustra-
tions simply to show that after all
when we compare with other expen-
ditures education isn't costing us very
much.
Tom Bellwood led the gang in a
| song, Miss Elsa Myers playing the
piano accompaniment.
Tom Mccullough gave an interest
! ing talk on the need for new state
game code, advising all to vote for
/ it in November. IF it is endorsed by
the people in the November election,
the governor will declare a closed
season from December 10, this year,
until the new code is adopted by the
new legislature conyening in Janu-
airy.
The code the State Game Protec-
tive association hopes to have adopt
ed by the next legislature has the
best and most practicable provisions
of the game codes of other states as
adapted to our own needs and condl-
tions. 1t provides numerous small re-
fuges and breeding grounds and in
other ways provides for conservation
of our wild game and its natural in
crease.
| Tom spoke of the commercial val
ue of wild game. Colorado, he said
values each trout at a dollar, because
it is estimated that much is spent
in the state by fishermen for each
trout caught. By proper conserva-
ton, Tom said, Arizona, the north
part of which is in every way fitted
to be a hunters paradise, will have
an abundance of deer, wild turkey
etc. Without conservation before
Hong they practically will be a thing
of the past so far as our woods are
concerned
/ Secretary Art Riordan read note
from Gus Pearson, in which Gus
amiably protested against the state
ment made last week in The Sun that
he is a native of Sweden, when, Gus
said, he'd plainly stated that he was
born in Nebraska. 1t was an mex
! cusable blunder. Now. if Gus had
said he was born in Minnesota, that
would have made him a native OF
! Sweden, all right.
