we have built great organization,
and we are anxious to use it in the
simple way to foster and encourage
acquaintance, friendship and con-
fidence. Perhaps to all of us, re-
gardless of our interest in other Ro-
tary activities, the thing that most
intrigues us is the potentialities of
Rotary, of Rotary clubs and of Ro-
tary International in international
service.
Desire for Peace
i have visited Rotary in many
countries and everywhere l have
found a great desire, not only for
that peace which all men desire, but
for the development of our great
organization as one of the instru-
mentalities for international under
standing, good will and peace.
If we understand other peoples,
if we know their habits and their
psychology and their customs, if we
can lead ourselves to look through
their eyes, then we will have good
will, and good WI is the only pos
.sible and sure Lasis for lasting
peace. Here in this convention we
nave thousands of business and pro-
fessionaf men from many differ
Cnt countries, and in their presence
at this gathering we have a. great
adventure in International under
standing and good will"

the association, yesterday in a
letter from Hardie Meekin,
manager of Keith's Theater, in
closing a check for $120 from
the management so as to assure
that two children chosen as the
beneficiaries may be taken at
once to camp and thus to avoid
the trouble and delay Of having
tickets sold by the association.
A large number of distin-

around the high-finance career
of the late Jim FiSke during the
"gilded age" period following
the Civil War, and starring Ed

To help "gilded age" the man

utanteS dressed in the costumes
of that bygone period, who will
arrive at the theater just before
the performance in a horse
drawn coach. accompanied by
their escorts, and take their seats
in a reserved section of the
