WILL TO SERVE IS
 SPIRIT 0F KIWANIS
E. H. Kean Delivers Inspiring
 Talk at Club Banquet

Jesus was a sportsman, whose message was one of a square deal. He had nothing to do with modern narrow ideals of theology. according to Franklin H. Kean, international representative of Kiwanis clubs and for 20 years headmaster in the Uni versity school at St. Louis Mo. MT. Kean spoke last evening at the fourth annual banquet of the Xii wanis club. at the Elks' hall. He took as his theme Paul's oration on love, and analysed the interpreta- ton, applying his analysis to the spirit of Kiwanis.
 He said the Council of Vienna predicted the World War almost to the date, 100 years previous. He pointed out that the wave of senti- ment as opposed to war resulted during the war in the birth of civic clubs, which he said was the great est constructive force In America.
 When St. Paul said Love thy neighbor' he did not mean some- thing saccarine or sentimental. he spoke of love as that of the high est respect in whom he held other men and tolerance for their thoughts and views" the speaker said.
 He said Kiwanis does not exist In it's orators, adding: "The true serv- Ice man Is the man with not 30 much utterance but who is willing to hear with an effective ear.
 Tt Is a mistake to think that in dustrial or commercial success makes Kiwanian. Often the superior man in the bank Is the cashier and not the president"
 The speaker severely criticised men and women of blunt speech, who tell the truth to their friends without regard for the injury to their feelings. as almost coward" "A man of that type IS man of magnificent bluff. He covers his own coWardice in a certain brus- fqueness," he said.
 "One of life's greatest trials is the self made man who makes him. self generally disliked. In time of diversity he cries Look what has been done to me; when he is pros- porous he says Look what l have done.'
 Sinclair Lewis in his 'Babbitt' found some evidences of danger. We sit around a table batting our selves on the back and think we are the salt of the earth.
 "A large part of the scandal in the world Is because of that trait of destructiveness and meanness in all of us who like to pull down greatness to our own standards.
 There is always a way to achieve .the ends of law and de- cency without being in the least incompatible with mercy and jus tice.
 You are not a clothier if you simply confine yourself to selling clothes as long as there is naked ness in the word. You are not a baker if you confine yourself to selling bread as long as someone is hungry"
 A diamond watch fob with Kiwanis emblem was presented to President J. M. Ward by Rev. Dr. A. A. Ahlquist on behalf of the club. Arthur Berg and William R. Fenn were presented with Kiwanis buttons for not having missed meeting in a year. Harry c. Bill tngs was presented with pen knife mounted with 8 kiwanis em- blem in gold, for not having miss ed a meeting since the club was organized. Gold compacts with Xii wanis emblems were presented to the women guests.
 Stanton Ashley, Dwight Latham and Paul F. Lucas furnished en- tertainment. Dancing followed,

NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. l.-tHl
The world consumption Of Ameri-
can cotton during the season ended

Of Secretary Henry q. Hester cf the
New Orleans cotton exchange soday.
The world consumption revealed
by the figures was stated to be the
greatest ever recorded.
The worlds consumption. Mr.. Hes
ter said. had never before reached
seventeen million bales. Correspond
ingly. cotton consumption in the
southern states, including lInters.
was the largest ever known. South
ein consumption was fixed AZ SAIL
39l bales. 6g2.i65 more than was con-
cumed last year and 1901 ,2T3 more
than the previous year.
Secretary Hester said the enorm-
Gus cotton consumption was largely
due to the use Of relatively cheap,
low grade cotton which 70 a consid-
cradle extent was substituted for
other growths by the mills and other
consuming estimates.
He added that TIE world had TAX
en- virtually all the American cotton
it could get. Exports amount 20
eleven ard quarter million bales,
and the takings by American mills
north and south. totalled about

were produced.
