The Centennial Celebration
The discussion of the Centennial Celebration two weeks ago was very
valuable.
Several suggestions were made in the meeting which will
be
of much value to the committee but the greatest benefit
came from
suggestions later made by members.
No enterprise of that character can be worked out successfully withcut the friction of many minds.
The skeleton plan can be determined
upon by a few men in a committee meeting..
That plan is not enough,
however.
The whole program must be enriched by ideas that are
the
product of general discussion.
The Ed had a valuable object lesson along that line during
the War.
Frequently demands
were made- upon. the County
War
Board which
seemed impossible of realization, but it was the war.
They did not come
in the form cf requests.
They were peremptory orders.
The County
War Board shook its collective neads and said “ impossible”,
but always
a meeting of the’ Township War Boards of the county was
called.
Many
of the members of those boards were men of a high order
of intellect.
Some were not as good thinkers..
Such a meeting started at ten o’clock
in the morning.
The Proposition was presented.
Someone made a suggestion.
Usually it was very impractical.
Others discussed it.
After a
time another suggestion was made and was discussed.
Tris process was
continued until four or five in the afternoon.
In the meantime
the
thinking of everyone in the group was advanced by the
ideas of the
other members.
At the close of the meeting it never failed to develop a
practical answer to the situation.
In every instance the county met the
requ‘rements of the general organization.
The result could not have been
accomplished
by the same
individuals or twice their number
acting
Separately.
Even though the individuals had been of much _ superior
mentality it could not have been done.
It was the composite action of
forty minds which accomplished the object,
The Board of Managers of the celebration is under obligation
to
Kenny Olmsted for being willing to dedicate a program
to the purpose,
even though Ken did it only because he failed of another program.
x
The strike in the Homer
Furnaceplant
is a regrettable incident
from all standpoints.
In saying this we do not attempt to pass upon the
merits of any question which may be at issue.
Out of such a controversy,
however, grows suffering for veeryone involved.
The men suffer, temporarily
at least.
Many
of them
will
suffer
permanently
because
it
cannot
but
result
in
a
sharp
curtailment
of
the
company’s
volume.
The plant will suffer and the city will suffer.
It is greatly to
be hoped that cooler counsels will result in a speedy agreemen
t which will
m‘nimize the damage as much as possible.

on boys’

and
crippled children’s work.
2. Assist in the formation and extension of institutes of international relations.
3. Provide for Rotarian speakers to del:v_r in counti:s other than

their practical application in their respective countries.
The naming and emphasizing of these three objectives is not exclusive nor permanent.
The purposes of the foundation are broad and
inclusive and insure ever increasing opportunities for service.

The Voice of Sturgis Rotary complains of the condition of Rotary
signs at the approaches of the city.
The club is planning to fix them
up to create a better impression of the club. Belding is also talking about
signs.

A Suggestion On Ex-Members

Every Rotary club has an interest in its ex-members who take up
residence in another town where this is a Rotary club.
If this interest
does

not

exist,

it

means

that

many

gocd

men

are

to

movement

even though they may still be Retarians at heart and would appreciate
an opportunity to continue enjoying the contacts and privileges of Rotary.
It is natural that the individual would feel that he should wait until
he is appreached.
In instances, then, where a Rotarian of good standing
leaves the club and takes up rezidence in another town, where there ‘s
a Rotary club, it is in the interest of the progress and development of
the Rotary movement that you do what you can to establish a contact for
him by writing to that club and informing them that Rotarian So-and-So
is now a member of their community, and suggesting that: some member
call on him and that he be invited to attend a meeting of the club.
Many
times. of course, his classification will be filled in the town where the
Rotarian goes as a new resident.
It may nevertheless eventually prove
helpful to the club and to the ex-member if you make it possible for him
to continue his contact with Rotary.

Under new rulings the city would be required to furnish $5,000

This additonal requirement leaves it questionable whether the council will be able to comply.

June

5, 1936,

‘Dear ‘Hugh:

We read excerpts from your “Razzberry” to our club members yesterday and passed it around for them to see.
They were. very much
taken with it and asked me to inquire if you might spare us about a dozen
copies.
The bulletin was so newsy and complete and complimentary in its
reference to the Muskegon confe-ence that many of the boys would like
to have a copy to keep among their souvenirs.
We think the report of the conference was excellent.
Several said
“We did not realize it was so good.”
Appreciating your generous cooperation, I am
Sincerely and Rotarily yours,
CHESTER C. WELLS,
President, Muskegon Club.
Dear

Glenn:
I seldom write to “the Editor” but since reading the latest edition of
Razzberry I am moved to write you an essay entitled “Give Me Back
My Baby”.
On page 1 you say, “There has been a net gain of 111 members and
a new club at Belding”, etc.
Now I have no quarrel with the “gain of
111 members”, but that NEW club at Belding is MY second baby, birth of
which was announced at last year’s Conference at Battle Creek, and
whose charter night was on June 15 last year, two whole weeks before
my successor took office.
Greenville was the mama and I was the papa
or vice versa or something, and we have the records to prove it.
Now
you come along and try to Razzberry our baby away from us, and, Glenn,
it ain’t fair.
I’m
sure
Ray
Dresser
ani-ycu
together,
with
all
your . legal
training can’t prove that Belding is Ray’s baby.
Why we can even prove
that Lowell (our first baby) gave a nice rattle and scme other baby things
to little Belding the night she was born and you should have s:en how
tickled she was.
Not cnly that, she is having a birthday party next
Monday, to celebrate rer 1st anniversary, so Glenn, how could you be so
cruel as to claim that Ray is her papa?
That is all of the essay, so I will close by saying again, “Please,
Glenn, give me back my baby.”
Sincerely,
BILL OTTO.

Outcome

As this issue of the Razzberry reaches its readers the Homer Furnace plant wili again be in operation.
This outcome of ihe recent troukle is very welcome to every citizen.
There is no cne in ihe commun_ty
who does not directly or indirectly benefit from the fayroll of that
institution.
The company still has pending a petition for its dissolution.
‘That
petition was filed because its finances are not in a condition to stand
the strain of a long contest.
The assets are sufficient at present so iaat
creditors could be paid in full and the land and buildings remain to the
stockholders.
After a prolonged shut-down, that would rot ke true.
'Th2
creditors might receive only a portion of their claims and Mr. Strong
be entirely wiped cut of any return fcr his lifetime cf effort in build rg
the institution.
A dissolution proceeding requires a considerable time for jts completion.
Hence it was considered wise to start the machinery at once
and complete it if necessary.
The reason the proceeding is not dismissed with the opening cf
the plant is merely the possibility that something might happen to make
it necessary for the company still to avail itself of it. There seems now,
however, to be little Likelihood that such a contingency will ari-e. Enou h
of the men have signified their des‘re to re‘urn to work, co theze is little
question that the plant will be adequately manned.
The men whe are
willing to return are in a mood to fight for their jobs.
If a small m‘nority
rfhould undertake violence, it will be met so vigorcusly ky coth.the company and the men that there is little danger of its success.
The fight to get back vclume prceduction will be a Jong one.
The
company’s furnace game has nct badly been ‘nterruvted. 'Trat is :ts own
production.
There it is dealing with the nublic. Its furnace buziness
however, is but a small part of its total volume.
In the custom foundry
game considerable volume has been lost, in that it is -bliged to pive
daily service.
Its customers must have regular production.
Many
cf
them have recaptured their patterns from the plant and placed them
elsewhere, The process in getting them back will be a slo-v ove.
The company was employing approximately one hundred eighty-‘*ive
men prior to the shut-down.
It will be a long time before all of thece
men are back at work”
Mr. Marcks, the organizer for the Internaticnal Moulders
Union,
maintains stoutly that the local moulders are inadequately paid.
That
is a question which requires comparison with other plants for de*e“minition.

received by the balance of the moulders is anproximately $540 per day
of from six to nine hours.
Many of the moulders have been deve'op7d 'n
a few months from local men with no exneriencs.
Under local living
conditions that would seem to be a reisonable wage.
During all the difficulty there was no conference b2tween the company and Mr. Marcks or other union repres2ntatives and no talk of terms
of settlement.

that the employment

In the general shying away
from the work of Rotary programs it is refreshing to feel that some of

The Ed could not stay to hear George Vail last Tuesday but left it
with Red McKnight to write it up for the Razzberry because George always makes good copy.

Possibly one big contribution Rctary can make during the coming

Honorary Members

The question has been asked whether honorary members of Rotary
clubs are welccmed at meetings of other Rotary clubs.
The answer is,
Yes, indeed.
Any Rotary club will welccme the visits within reason of
either active or honorary members of other Rotary clubs.
An honorary

resides in a city other than that of the club in which he has his honorary
membership.
In such a case it might not be reasonable for the Rotarian
to undertake to attend regularly the meetings of the club in the city
in which he resides unless invited to do so by the club.
The difference
between the position of an active member and an honorary member is that
the active member has a constitutional right to attend a meeting of another Rotary club while the honcrary member
hasn’t any such constitutional right.
However, the honorary memker may be sure that when
he is traveling of he goes to any Rotary club meeting and identifies
himself he will receive a cordial invitation to attend the meeting.
In the earlier years of Rotary the position of active members with

What Really Counts

It is net the size of a community which determines whether or not a
Rotary club can be maintained in a community.
Here is an. illustration:
A Rotary club just eight menths old, in a town of 4,000 reported its
activities as follows:
The children’s playground was established and outfitted with necessary swings, etc.
An outdoor skating rink was established for children.
:
Glasses were furnished for children whose parents were unable to
provide them (in cooperation with the local B.P.O.E.)
Midget hockey teams were backed.
A gymkhana was staged and the outfits were provided for the boys.
(Again assisted by the B. P. O. E.)
A community Christmas tree was provided.
Yet,
This seems to indicate a very active and resultful ten months,

exists between the Rotary Club and other organizations and the public
in general.
In the Jubilee celebration here we were represented by a
handsome fleat our president renrezenting John Bull.
We have been welcomed into the community and feel that now we
have established ourselves, we can do more and better work.

A Suggestion

From Quincy

The Ed received a suggestion from the Quincy Club last week which
well be paszed cn to Rotary Internaticnal.
It is this.
Both Qu.ncy and Bronson organized Lions C.ubs a few years ago
but they were not very successful. In a short time the Bronson Club surrendered its charter.
Some time later the Quincy Club did the same.
In both towns, however, there was a field for a luncheon club.
In Quincy
the club was continued and now funciions successfully as an independent.
The trouble was the financial requirements of affiliation with a general organization.
In both towns it is recognized that such affiliation is
des'rable.
The fellows in Quincy feel that there should be some concession in financial requirements in small towns.
Doubtless this matter has been given thorough cons‘d:ration by the
Board of Directors of R. I. There are obvious objections to it but there
are also cogent reasons why it should be done.
The suggestion at Quincy was that in towns of 2,000 or under, Rotary
units be permitted as affiliating with a nearby Rotary Club but without
the requirement of a charter fee and with reduced requirement of contribution to the general fund of R. I. The affiliate club would be considered as' belonging to the parent club, wou!d no doubt meet with it on
unusual occasions, such as Ladies’ Nights, but the regular weekly lunchecns would be held separately.
Perhaps there should be but one Board of
Directors for the entire organization.
If that were true, members of
affiliate clubs should be eligible to membership on the Board of Directors.
Such a plan would work out wonderfully well in Branch County.
If
Bronson, Quincy and Union were to organize clubs of that character, it
would result in much closer contacts among representative men of the
four centers of population in the county than has ever been true in the
past.
A solidarity of interest and unity of action would be encouraged
which would mean much in its development.
Rotary teaches such solidarity of interest.
A good Rotarian realizes
that instead of profiting by the misfortunes of our neighbors, we are
injured by them. Anything which benefits our neighbors redounds to our
advantage.
The same thing is true of communities.
A county is never
advantaged by rivalry and distrust among its communities.
Ili is impossible to sit at table with men from another community without realizing that they are the same kind of good fellows and actuated by the same
motives that you find in your community.
Rotary has for years keen pressing development in small towns put
with indifferent success.
A relaxation of the requirements along the
lines indicated would tremendously increase its infiuence and its usefulness.
;
It is a well known fact that clubs in small communities develop a
better Rotary spirit than in large cities.
The same would be true to a
still greater degree if the rules were so liberalized as to permit of the
general extension of Rotary! into still smaller communities.
Such an e%tens’ ‘on would doubtless involve a slight relaxation in the classification
requirements.
There are many angles to consider and many things to
work out. It seems to me, however, that the result to be ga’ned thoroughI svg~ect that the
ly justifies a caveful consideration of the nrorosal.
Ccldwater Club advance the idea at the District Conference and undertake to ebtain district endorsement for it.

The Coming District Conference
A recent issue of the St. Johns Rotary Spirit states that Muskegon
is making unusual effort to assure the success of the coming District
Conference.
It is spending about three times as much as has ever been
spent before in arrangements for it.
It will unquestionably be an enjoyable and worth while event.
The entertainment features of a conference are all right.
It is important that the Rotary-Anns be provided with entertainment which
makes it attractive to them to go.
The responsibility for Rotary work
is not on them but it is fine for them to become acquainted with RotaryAnns from all over the District.
Fellowship among Rotarians themselves
is promoted by a reasonable amount of entertainment.
It must not be forgotten, however, that the District Conference has
a more serious purpose than mere entertainment.
A factor wh'ch has
ccntributed as much as anything to the success of Rotary International
is its well work out scheme of meetings. It starts with the weekly meeting of the club and goes on through the various steps of directors meeting, club assembly, district conference, district assembly, international
convention, international assembiy with side lines of regional conferences.
- All of these meetings have a function in the organization.
They result
in-a cohesiveness and centralization of energy which gives Rotary ah
important and well recognized world influence.
At the District Conference time is usually given for a boat ride, golf
game or such entertainment as the members desire.
The entertainment,
however, should not be allowed to interfere with the time devoted to
meetings.

Band Uniforms Needed
The Voice of Sturgis Rotary says that money is being raised to send
the lccal high school band to Cleveland to the national band contest. Their
band went to St. Louis one year.
The fact that it is striving for national
honors must be a tremendous stimulus to good work.
The Coldwater band is in bad shape now so far as uniforms are
ecncerned.
Mrs. J. A. Thomas, President of the Parent-Teachers Association, is inaugurating a campaign to raise the expense of procuring new
uniforms.
The cost is estimated to be approximately $1000.00.
It is a
worth while project.
The high school band is the best solution of the
problem we have ever had.
It supplies band music much more cheaply
and it is more easily available than any adult civic organization.
The
Chamber
of Commerce
and lccal civic crgen zations. like the Rotary
Club, should fal! in line and give this project every assistance.

Dedicated To The Pheasant

—

This edition of the Razzberry is dedicated to the Pheasant—an honor
which no other game bird enjoys.
Last year one meeting was delegated to the pheasant, at which time
all kinds of tall stories were related.
This year some of the finer points
of pheasant hunting have been compiled to furnish educational as well
as practical enjoyment.
Seriously, the pheasant is a very wonderful game bird, not only as a
table delicacy but’as a smart individual always trying to outguess the
hunter, which incidentally he usually does.
I believe that the ratio of the number of pheasants shot at and missed,
Personally
in comparison to the number of pheasants bagged is 6 to 1.
my own average is about 25 to 1.

THE

TRAINING OF BIRD DOGS
(W. J. Bien)
The first essential is to have a thoroughbred dog of the pointer or
setter type.
I am not mentioning cocker and other spaniels because they
are not true bird dogs, although they can be used very successfully on
birds as far as bag limits go.
We will therefore think of pointers and

setters

and

my

remarks

will

refer

ee

the common

herd,

4Y

to setters because my own experience has been only with setter dogs.
Bird dogs are just like people in
their program of life.
They. must
have certain things in their makeup and certain requisites if they are
going to bloom out into some kind
of a finished product.
You can’t
make industrialists or business men,
doctors or lawyers out of all people.
Most. haven’t the many requisites to

lift them

beyond

\%

no matter how much or what train3}
ing is put on or into them.
So it is with bird dogs.
Many of them
never round out into finished hunting dogs.
I will therefore mention some
of the requisites necessary that bird dogs must have to make them worthwhile for training and developing.
First: gcod breeding.
Second: courage.
Third: bird sense (common sense).
Fourth: well developed hunting instinct.
Next: a well developed pointing instinct.
Next: the dog
can’t be gun or man shy.
Next: Your dog must like and respect you 5o
that he will enjoy doing things fer you.
Many lesser things such as
balance, poise, etc, go to make a better dog.
The training of a young
dog or pup consists of two divisions: first, yard training or home training, and secend: field training.
The yard training consists of teaching a dog certain commands and
to retrieve.
It takes lots of time and patience to accomplish these things,
and they should be accomplished in such a way so that a dog really likes
to do them for you.
He must “whoa”, “drop” or “charge” on command
and be steady.
He must fetch or retrieve on command
unless the
dog is a natural retriever.
Then he may fetch on command, or without
ccmmand, or he may not fetch at all.
Forced retrieving dogs are better
therefore because when once instilled into the dogs it is a duty performed
on command.
You can depend upon the dog retrieving at any time or
under any conditions.
Field training consis*s of taking a young dog into the field where ‘he
can begin to see and find game, and at first run and chase at will, and
have a grand and glorious unrestricted life.
Before the dog can advance
further we must wait for two things to happen: the hunting instinct to
show itself and along with it the pointing instinct.
These instincts coming to light vary in young dogs.
They may come early, or be delayed,
but until they are manifest, we must wait for them.
When the huntine
instinct begins to develop, the deg will at once act differently.
He will
mcre and more go about the hunting with some definite plan and 1
businesslike attitute.
He will study his game and ccever, how and why
birds act under different conditions.
He will feel hurt and cheap when
birds fool h*‘m and as he develcps, he will more and more love to hunt,
but it will be a real business with him.
Then the pointing instinct comes to light.
He immediately adopts a
different attitude.
He becomes hesitant on finding birds where before
he would rush into them, flush end chase them.
But now, he begins ito
held a point.
He begins to work birds with some carefulness.
He will
drift with the wind and circle and swing in against the wind unless he is
ground scenting entirely.

�THE

BRAZZBERRY

The next and big thing is bird sense, which requires real understanding and intelligence on the part of a dog.
He will now know more about
the game he is hunting and the why and wherefore.
He will know why
birds will like to do different things under different conditions and he
will work just as differently under these different conditions as to handle
them properly.
He will know where birds are likely to be and will work
that territory thoroughly and systematically.
Other less likely territory
he will cover hurriedly, and others pass up entirely.
He will just seem
to know where to go.and what to do.
He will save himself unnecessary
hunting through his eyes, ears, nose and brain his, bird sense.
The field
training is full of disappointments in the early stages, but later very interesting and full of lots of thrills and beauty, as a good dog develops.
The yard breaking comes into the picture in the field training.
If the
‘yard breaking is proper it dovetails so simply and nicely in the field
training work.
When the dog swings into the hunting instinct picture,
the command “Steady” will slow him down and especially if you have
him on a long rope at this stage.
When he begins to point birds the
command.
“Whoa” holds him to his point, and further the command
“Whoa” or “drop” when the birds flush, so he wi'l no longer chase them,
The commands “Fetch”, “find” and “Dead Bird” come into the picture
in the actual hunting of game.
If a dog is right there is very little you
can teach him.
The commands mentioned are just very helpful in the
control and guiding of a dcg toward what he is supposed to do.
If this
ecntrol is right and exercised, he will swing into the picture very fast,
but after that a “hands off” policy in the actual hunting of game is
best.
He will know much about the game he is hunting and how it ‘s
handled.
He will show you plenty of bird sens, skill in handling, and
beautiful performance.
It will be best for you to believe in what your
dog is doing and that he is right.
If you yourself, the big “wise hunter”,
simply know the bird is here or there, and that the dog is all wrong,
you are on the spot for your dog to humiliate you badly and show you
how really Jittle vou kn-w.
You can’t teach him anything about hunting, he has forgotten. more than you will ever know about it.
Our local pheasants are grand birds to hunt.
They are very hard
on our bird dogs because they are so crafty, elusive and fast that it takes
a lot of exper‘ence on the part of a dog before he can even handle them
half way good.

THE

RAZZBERRY

An Exchange of Greetings
The Honolulu Rotogram has a department of correspondence.
In the
last issue it quotes a letter from the Rotary Club of St. Joseph, Missouri,
to the effect that a charter member of the St. Joseph Club has recently

returned

from

an

extended

vacation

trip in which

he

visited

Honolulu.

It also states that he gave an interesting lecture on his return home about
the beautiful and interesting sights of Hawaii, the charming reception
and courteous treatment. extended to him by the Honolulu Club.
It also runs a letter from the Rotary Club of Alpena, Michigan, extending club greetings and stating that Don Lake of the Alpena Club had
given his impressions of Hawaii-in a talk to the club.
It strikes us that such exchange of greetings is well worth while and
that the Coldwater Club might well enlarge its activities along that line.
Sky Marshall in the St. Johns Rotary Spirit says:
“Nineteen years ago this week Wednesday this whole
country went into a wild celebration.
THE WAR, WAS OVER.”
The Belding Ratt’e says the war was.over eighteen years ago.
Not wishing tc fatigue the editorial, brain with mathematical
lations, we leave it to you.
It is‘evident, somebody was wrong.

ENTERPRISE

The London Rotary Club has acquired a&gt;home.
With the simplicity
of English practice it is named Rotary House.
It was dedicated on the
night of October 13th by Bill Manier, President of R. I. At the door of
the house President Byers. of the London Club handed him a silver key
as a personal souvenir with the affectionate greetings of the Retary Club
of London.
Manier replied in aj graceful speech, concluding that he was
“now opening the threshold of the:material home cf the Rotary ideals
of London and the culmination of twenty-five years of devoted London
Rotary effort.”
The home is acquired, by the way, in celebration of the
silver

anniversary

of

the

London

Club,

which

is

No.

17

in

the

chrono-

logical numbering of clubs.
So far as we know this is the only club which has a home of its own.
Practically all the large club&amp; meet-in hotels.
A club house is a nice
thing, however, and makes for coherence and fellowship in the organization.
We extend our congratulations to the Londen Club on its fine achievement.

INTERNATIONAL

SPEAKER

AT

MARSHALL

ON

OCT.

30th

As a new member of Rotary. I was creatly benefited bv goine to
Marshall to hear Dr. Bil! Copeland, President of Linccln Co'lege Lincoln.
Illinois. Dr. Copeland being one of thosre quiet, well spoken persons whose
sincerity holds the attention of all without effort. His talk gave me the
first real concrete idea of what a Rotarian can do and what is. exnected
of a Rotarian.
He cited a number of s»ecific services a Rotary Club may
perform, for its own locality. jts own immed’a‘e neighbors, and the part
it can take nationally and jnternationally.
I left this meeting with a

feeling.

that

a

good

Rotarian

must

not

only

be

a

good

citizen

but

.n

active citizen, and that Rotary can act as a guide for his efforts in b&gt;ing of service. If Dr. Bill’s talk is representative of others sponsored by
Rotary International, I hope to attend all within reach.

Belding adopts a suggestion from the News Letters from the Secretariat which seems a good one.
It is the dessimination of the Rotarian
by placing it in libraries, schools and neighboring towns.
Many of our fellows (including the Ed) fail to make the most of that
useful magazine.
It is, however, indexed in “Readers’ Guide to periodical
Literature” and bound volumes in the local library would be valuatle.

A copy sent to the schools in all of the towns of the county would also be
valuable.

RAZZBERRY

Thank You, Mr. Kellogg
The Kellogg. foundation has’ now been in Branch County a year.
We
have had the opportunity: to observe its workings and to measure its
usefulness.
We realize-more vividly than- we did a year ago the intelligence with which this fine’philanthrophy’ is planned, the generosity with
which it is financed, and the executive ability with which it is managed.
There is always danger that such an institution will be taken Zor
granted:
that’a community will fail to appreciate its benefactors.
We
cannot afford to make that mistake—not because of its effect on the
benefactor but because of its influence on ourselves.
Gratitude is classed among the unpleasant emotions.
But in the
building of character, either in an individual or a community, proper
appreciation of favors cannot be overlooked.
Although the Rotary club doesnot represent the community
officially yet as it originated the idea of the Branch County Health Unit
and prompted the organization which secured it, we probably would not
be assuming too much to express the gratitude of the City of Coldwater
and the-whole County of Branch to Mr. W. K. Kellogg for ‘his wonderful
service te the county.
The Razzberry believes itself authorizd to act as
the mouthpiece of -the club in that exprssion.
We thank you sincerely Mr. Kellogg.
We hope that from your ben2faction you..experience the pleasure and gratification which is the reward of a‘good deed.
Although you do ‘not belong to Rotary you are a good Rotarian.

“T was very much interested in the copy of “The Razzberry”, which
I received from you a few days ago.
I had seen some reference to this
correspondence in your bulletin, but am glad to see copies of both c-mmunications.
However, my pleasure in the contents of these letters was
spoiled by Secretary Glenn of The Razzberry being so rude as to refer
to Rotary Club Secretaries as “Rough Necks”.
I am sure this must have
hurt your dignity.
Some are good band-leaders and possibly some might
be crooners for all I know, but I am shocked to learn that, if they are
really good secretaries, they qualify for the Order of Rotary Rough ‘Necks.

WHAT

ONE

ROTARY

CLUB

HAS

DONE

As a practical youth service activity: the Rotary Club of Mani‘a,
Philippine Islands, through the ‘untiring efforts of a committee headed
by Chairman E. L. Hall recently issued ‘sixteen book'tets on the various
professions written by club members and published by the club as a
contribution to the Phillippine Vocaticnal Guidance Association..
These booklets have been placed .in the libraries of 400 high sehcols
and colleges in the Islands and are now being used in twenty-four ..different ways.
The cost of the booklets was reduced by using type. which
had already been set up in the Journal of Education in. which the text
first appeared.
The Philippine Free Press, the largest weekly. magazine
in the Philippine Islands secured the privilege of reprinting all of the
booklets on its students page.
As a result of three years’ efforts by Ro-

tarian

Hall the Government

of the Commonwealth

will make

vocational

guidance an integral part of the new educational system.
It has called
upon Rotarian’ Hall to draft plans for adult education for illiterates. _
Did you know that the French veterans’ organizations recently sent
to the war veterans of Germany this message:
“We say to you German
comrades that the hour has sounded for our reconciliation.
We must
teach our peoples to understand and to agree.”

What Is Your Hobby?
The London~ Rotarian: has* been running a series of articles by its
members entitled “My Hobby”.
The following is worthy of. reprint.
Since the Hobby series has been started I have asked myself, “What
is my hobby?”
Consciously, I do not think I have one, as I am interested
in so many. aspects-of life. Sub-consciously, I think it is “keeping youthful,” mentally, rather than physically.
Generally I take the attitude of
youth (at any rate, my youth as far as I can remember it) as keing trat
of rebellion.
Why, I ask myself, should anyone be dammed eternally?
Why. should there be extremes cf poverty and-riches?
Why should most
people always be living in fear?
‘Why shou'd pleasant. leisure be so

sparsely spread?

I believe, that these conditions can and mvst ke a‘tered.

I have seen some progress during my life, though !ittle enough.
‘Another aspect ‘of youth is (or rather was) not to be bored but to
enjoy the simple things of life and simple people.
Youth can also adapt
itself to varying environments, and I still try to do. this.
On the other hand. youth thinks it knows everything, and there I
fail to. carry out my. sub-conscious hobby. . Politically, economically, and

socially I am. still.a rebel, I am glad to say, but now

I lack some

of the

courage of youth in proclaiming the fact and pursuing. rebellious rims.
Now, Mr. Editor, you have, if not a hokby, a confession, and that, I kelieve, is what you are really after.
-Tt is rather interesting to note how: one’s physical exertions. have to
change with added years.
I ran on the cinder track as a young man,
then I took up cycling, then hockey and the river, and now golf. and I
suppose bowls. will follow.
Anyway, I am glad to have always prefe rei
to do things rather than watch others do. them, and I am sure many
more- would have the same preference if they had the same. opportunities.

I wonder if Rotary
