RQTARIAN8 OF NEW LONDON
: ENTERTAIN NORWICH MEN
'- Some B5 members of the Rotary club
of New London and 25 invited guests
of this city gatsr.red at the Wauregan
house Thursday noon' for a dinner and
a get-to-getlKr where Norwich men
could be given an opportunity to see
what Rotary really stood for.
The New London men arrived at the
New Haven depot shortly after 12 o'
clock Thursday noon and were met by
a delegation of men from this city.
From 'there they were escorted to the
hotel where covers had been laid for
eighty. Cornelius C.' Costelkv president of
the New London-Rotary club as toast
master, welcomed the Norwich men
and expressed a desire to see members
of a Rotary club of this city joining
with them in the near future. In in
troducing the virious members of the
organization he stated that perhaps it
mignc De well it every person intro
duced himself, and he called upon His,
nonor Mayor Jeremiah J. Desmond, of The resignation of assistant treas
Norwiclv to start the ball rolling. ; urer. A. S. Comstock was read and ac
Mayor Desmond responded in his untui with . .
pleasing way and welcomed the men
irom our sister city at the other end
t J,elrlver m words that were sec-
His Honor Mayor E. Frank Morgan
of New London was also called upon
for a brief address and he was hearti
ly applauded.
The meeting then resolved itself into
a regular good time, "Jim" Hammond,
secretary of the New London Cham
ber of Commerce in his capacity as
"Chief Howler" keeping things hum
ming with his several surprises and
various bits of humor that caused
laughter on every occasion. The sing
ing of songs composed especially for
the occasion mingled in with the var
rious song hits of the season sung
first by the New London men and then
by the Norwich delegation bringing
forth an abundance of applause.
At the conclusion of the dinner, Mr.
Costello gave a brief history of Ro
tary, stating that it was started by
Lawyer Harris of Chicago in 1905, or
' 'J racnu.u boiq. m presenting tne monev Mr
just fifteen years ago this month, and
! that at the present time iti member-
club ' he said that it was formed for
six reasons, namely: -. , .
To promote the recognition of the
worthiness of all legitimate occupa
tions - and to dignify each member's
occupation as affording him' an op
portunity to serve society.
To encourage high ethical standards
in business and professions.
, To increase - the efficiency of each
member to be of service to his fellow
men and society in general.
To promote the scientiaing of ac
quaintance as an opportunity for ser
vice and an aid to success.
To quicken the interest of each
member in the public welfare of his
community . and to co-operate with
others in civic, 'social, commercial and
industrial development.
Following the address of Mr. Cos
tello the next speaker was "Jim" Ham.
mond, . secretary . of the New London
Chamber of Commerce, who told of the
spirit of co-operation between these
two - groat organisations. He' said
that the motto of the Rotarians was,
"Service above Self."
Mr. Costello next called, upon Rev.
J. Romsyn Danforth, pastor of the
Congregational church of New London,
who- explained that the membership
of the Rotary club was composed of
one man from every type of business,
this man being chosen to represent the
present tense of - the business, or that
man who could be said to occupy the
saddle. These men would continue to
be - Rotarians until they stepped out,
and what is now the future tense
Btepped into the business ' to fill their
places. He told of how Rotarians got
out of their organization just what
they, had put "into it, plus the num
ber of things put into it by other
members. It brought out the best in
every man, and could properly, be
called "The Key That Unlocks the
World."
-.Rev. Mr. Danforth was followed by
O. E. Templeton of Maine, who told
of his. experiences while engaged in
trapping in the Maine woods. His
descriptions of a winter in the woods,
miles away from any human being, of
how the hunters built their cabins and
of several -experiences he had had with
bears while in the woods, was most
interesting to his listeners, ajid it was
with .regret that they learned that his
talk would be cut short because of the
teick of time before the New London
men must return to their homes. Mr.
Templeton had. spent most of. his life
in the woods and during recent years
has been teaching the Boy Scouts of
Main ai few camping . and hunting
Banquets Employes
man to have friends must show-him
self friendly: Friendship. means
much to both parties and the lack of
it makes all the difference in the
world. True friendship is like sound
health its value Is seldom, known
unt.l it is - lost. This old , world Is
craving'for friendship. -and this is the,
element of sociability. The third ele
ment is the forgetfulness- of self and
the thoughtfulness - for others. What
would happen if .we all" lived out this
principle? There would be no strikes,
'the employe would think of tjie em
ployer and the -employer of his em
ploye. There would be no need of
jails, no, trouble in the homes and ev
erybody' would be showing kindness
i to his fellowman. . Sociability- is one
, of the first things to be considered, in
.,ha i ,.i . tt. i
friendship and good- feeling there Is

no narmony ana no. proauction
Mr. Bergstresser ; then introduced
WV W. Schmitt of West - Hobokeit,
who is supervisor of human relations
at the ma.n plant m that place., Mr.
Schmitt in a few words outlined the
plan of this welfare work, saying that
a few years ago before . the' large
manufacturing plants . were . 'estab
lished every, employer knew all his
employes ,by name and knew the con
ditions is the home.. That time has
passed but is now being revived and
will do much to settle labor unrest
It is practically impossible to bridge
the gap between . employer and em
ploye but. with co-operation this
breach may be closed. Here Mr.
Schmitt sprang a surprise by telling
the employes that a rest and recrea
tion room was being fitted up at -the
mill and that witn,in a short time, It
would be open. : It is to be equipped
with p.ano, victrola. chairs, sewing
machine and a kitchenette is to be
built for the use of . the employes.
There will also be a pool table for the
men and the women are to be in
structed in dressmaking and milli
nery. We have the plans, said Mr.
Schmitt and now it is up to you. Co
operate with Mr. Bergstresser - and
he will cooperate' with you. ;
L. M. Crandall of the chamber of
commerce was the last speaker of the
evening and his topic was Produc
tion. Mr. Crandall said that canac-
ity production meant the reduced cst
or living ana mat little production
meant the reducing of the value of
money, for if- there -was no prod
tlon there money was worthless.. He
said it was the loafer on the job thai
was causing much hardship and that
the loafer aestrovs nrodiiction.- Kr
ery man. should produce as much as
possible and this should be-.1 done
through the cooperation of the em-
plove with the employer.- ;:,
The evening closed with' the sing
ing of Keep the Home Fires Burning
and a rising vote of thanks -: was
given Mr. Bergstresser and the
speakers of the evening. : .

ventive so far discovered.. . ,.

son lias; an opportunity to lodge it
self in the body if a good, laxative is
