prospered before. It is on the up grade, and in New Britain. as in the whole of New England. I believe that the pendulum is swinging fa- vorably. It will continue on the up grade. New Britain and New Eng land has future.
 Youth, it seems to me, has been grossly maligned. Those people of today who continually harp about the immoralities of youth. and how things were different when I was young, are nothing short of fool- ish They forget that when they were youngsters instead of parking they wrapped the reigns about the buggy whip and let old Dobbin wander where he would.
 Youth and World Move Faster
 Youth of today is living at a faster pace: the whole world is faster, and youth will keep up. l have nothing but the most profound respect for youth. They have their eyes set on an objective, and they are going to carry through until they gain their goal. may say in passing that every young man who enters the employ of the Security First National Bank of Los Angeles. where I am assistant cashier. must pass under my eyes before they get their jobs. In this way. believe that I have come to know youth in- tlmately, and l repeat again that l respect them and love them.
 Endorses Airport Project
 "In New Britain, l understand. you have just started another move- ment for an airport, a municipal air. port. That is fine. It shows that the city has the right idea; that they see that the expansion in the future will only be as great as the airport facilities of the city. Air travel will play vastly great part in the de- velopment of future America. l am glad you believe in it, and l am glad to see that the citizens are sup porting the project.
 Perhaps the people of New Britain would again like to know just what the Exchange club is. The purpose of the Exchange club is to adapt ourselves by right thinking that We may merge individual abil- ity and advantages into public good, and thus achieve that happiness of soul always a result of unselfish- ness, and only acquired through the benefits we give others.
 "The interpretation of the word Exchange in business life is that of parting with something in return for its equivalent. Our interpreta- tion of Exchange Is the giving of self for the privilege, in return, of serving others: of parting with self ishness and receiving in return the satisaction of discharging our duty to our fellowmen, to our community and to our nation. Primarily we plan to serve the community. and through serving the community We serve the state and the nation.
