Reports Success Of C'_ot_r_,zvention

Interesting Report Of Rotary Inter- rlational Convention Submitted i By Rotarian J- WI Boulter.

l The flollowing. address was de- flvered recently at Rotary Conven- mn by Mr. J. W. Boulter, Presid- pn-t of the looalRotaz-y Club.

A5 your representative to the lwtarry International Convention, held in Bosionthe last week in June. I am pleased to give s. re- port on the proceedings. This was without question the most wonder- ml meeting I have ever attended. and was looked upon by those in charge ss one of the nvoet success- ml conventions ever held in Rot- dry.

The convention was held in Old

‘Mechanics Building, which was beautifully decorated, and never appeared more attractive than it did during convention week. The conventional blue and gold of Rot- ary Inbeflmtionlal emblem. was the general color scheme, except on the stage in the main auditorium,

[which was decorated in alternat-

l .3 arches oi blue and silver, with a silver baiclcground, which gave an exaggerated vastness to the stage. from which such outstand- ing men as Woodrow Wilson had expounded the national issues of the times. r I Monday morning, June 26th, was liven over to registration, after which the delegates wandered s.- Iound. principally in the House of Friendship in Exhibition Hall, the clearing house of information, mail, and other practical services. It had s. doze-n or so latch strings. Ind Rotarians were sure of quick service no matter what informa- tion they required. A ticker. flwwing the changing prices on the stock market. wa installed. '1'here here rest rooms, stationary facilit- les, and a. place to meet acquaint- snces. Taken altogether, it was s. teal social centre.

The total registration was prac- tically eight thousand. five hund- red, and represented fifty or more

ions of the world. President

t had wonderful executive civility, and there was not a single hitch in the proceedings.

At the first meeting on Monday afternoon addresses ofwelcomewezo given by Governor Ely, Aching Mayor Joseph MoGrnth, the Pres- ldent 0f the Rotary Club of Bos- ton, and Mr. Dunbar, Governor of Ihe 31st Rotary District.

The response was by Mr. Fang l". Sec, of Shanghai, China, who gznlphaslred the friendship that ex- hts between Rntarians-that on ht way to the convention he trav- slled through Japan, and although his country and Japan are at war, he was shown every courtesy by the Japanese Iootarians.

. The rest of the afternoon was given over to addressee. The first was by Wilfred Andrews, of Sitt- lng-bourne, England, on "Why We lire Hera." Rotarlan Andrews spoke at length, summing up his sub- floct in these words: "We are here

consider Rotary‘: progranune;

'e are here to consider the legis- lative side oi our work; We 85¢ bare to meet our old friends and to make new ones; we are here to present a true picture to the world h! what Rotary is and ymat it Ines. We are here to elect our of- rims.» pi

Then cams the message trom the founder of Botaryr-Peul H. Harris,—tlle President Emeritus of Chicago. He stated the year of 1933 is of “tramcendant interest." Events of vast importance are tak- ing place. He claimed we worship- ped two gods, one professed, and one real. We have devoted ourselves to business, not so much because we loved it, as because of what it brought lLip-l/hlllflfl. We permitted buslnes to obscure life. The craze for things was so pressins. that men even took their own lives when denied them. The god of things, is a. fool's god, and not worthy of the worship of man. Ac- cording to the new theory, busi- nm was created for man, and man was not created for business. Harris said, “children must not be brought up as drones or loat- ers. There will be no slums in the cities which our children will build. Our chitdren will lead nature gen- erations out into the sweet. out- doors, and artists will arise from among them."

Concluding he said: “The friend- ships oi men of many countries made me more than a. millionaire. My stock has always mid. rich div- idends; it has always been above pair. Life is nme than steels, mot- ors and rails, more than business. Business is s. means to an end, ‘not an end.

“What have thwe thoughts to do with Rotary? They have every- thing to do with Rotary. This new life which men are looking forward to and talking about. is the Rotary life which we have summarized in the expression. ‘Service above self.‘ "

Another great event of the after- noon, was the introduction to the meeting of Rena- Admiral Byrd. Rotarlan. who was greeted with a. volume of applause. and was ap- pla/uded frequently as he bold of crossing the North and South Pol- es, carrying the Rotary Club Flag on. each occasion and declaring that he will have a Rotary Flag with him when he seeks a. new continent in the Antarctic. He later paid a. high tribute to the people of New Zealand, and when he discovers this new continent in the Antarctic, he told‘ them he would name it “Little New Zeal- and."

Tile address of the President. was full of information. it is im- posible for me to more than mere- iy refer to it, and to say that from his visits abroad, he has brought home with him a. strong conviction that we may look forward to the constant development of Rotary

and economic life of the northern countries. He emphasized the HD1115 of co-operation which is flowing. "Rot-axioms are in this conven- tion in greater nurnebrs than be- fore, because they are aware that this theory of co-opezlatioh within a nation and around the world hBS been a basic principle of their move- me-nt since its inception. The! are here because they have found that the philosophy to which they have pinned their faith, seems now to be gdven an opportunity to redeem the land that gave birth to Rot- ary. Small wonder that they have here determined to ket-‘P all" 5 force that can bring courage and faith into a nation, and a Shir"?

,that can produce in the hearts of 'men a. desire to live DQ899116? ‘m terms which mom the survival d 'a.11."

m the report made by Secretary Cheslcy n. Pen-v. he states that the year 1932-38 “will ion; be re- membered as an extremely signi- ficant one in Rotary history!‘

He went on, “Rotarims have met the challenge of these times by saving as never before, regardless as the cost of time and rnonei- It has been a trying year for Rotary. The income of the 0813mm"! h" declined appreciably. Numerous and surldry economies have been necessary. The buwet has been bolanced.

During the afternoon, there were discussions by different assemb- lies, the general theme being ‘The Individual Rotary Club Undu- Survey." Your representative sat with those representing club; mym fifty to one hundred members. The problem club was discussed, and it was pointed out that the club that is failing is one that has no object or incentive for whim t): work.

A discussion on "Attendance" was interesting. and it was sur- prising to learn that one club in California. had seventeen 100 per cent meetings in succession, Tm, brought out from some very wise Rotlarians. the Jaot that 100 per cent meetings were more of s, stumbling block than a. help, a4 1g antagonized officers wm w“. striving to gain this 100 per cent when anyone nailed to appear, m“; mflldhs Rotary s burden rather than a benefit. The ‘iscuasion my. ther disclosed the fact that when- ever a. club is carrying on in gush s- way, that its removal from m, community would not be missed, it is tune for it to turn in its chart- er. In other words, a Rotary Club cannot exist for itself, bruit rather for the service it renders others.
