LOUIS i?iIP Tells About Fine Spirit He' En countered Everywhere And Things He Saw M AMMOUTH CAVE WAS MOST INTERESTING Mr. S. G. Hawfield, superintendent of the city schools, was sent by the Monroe Rotarians to the internation al convention at St. Louis. On Tues day he told the club of his trip, as follows: In making a report as your dele gate to the 14th Rotary International convention, I wish in the very begin ning to express my very great ap preciation to my home crab for giv ing me this opportunity to take this very delightful trip." Without your doing this it would have been impos sible for me to go. There is only one regrettable feature about it for me and that is the fact that it will be impossible for me to make a good enough report to repay the club for this expenditure. I shall always hold the Rotary club of Monroe and all of its members in the kindest remem brance for this great favor. I re member that Dr. Burrell in his last appearance before our club remark ed that he would have to do his best in his talk before the club to . pay for the dinner that he had eaten and that expresses the sentiment of how I feel at this time. This same senti ment is embraced in a remark by President Havens when he said in speaking of what business really is: "Business is the principle that I am willing to pay you a fair price, for your service to me if you will pay me a fair price for my: service to you." - Incidental Pleasures v As I enter upon this report I can not refrain from indulging myself in sortie of the incidental pleasures of the trip. I speak of them as mere ly incidental for the simple reason that the prime object of the trip was in the benefits and pleasures of the convention program itself. Never theless one cannot attend a meeting of this kind without at the same time forming friendships and encountering situations which go a long ways to wards making the trip as a whole complete. In fact, without the good fellowship the convention program would not mean much to any one. A special car had been provided for all RotarianS in and around Char lotte and it was aboard this car that the trip was begun . on Saturday morning at 8:30, June 16th, Three Rotarians went from Charlotte,- Bill Thompson, Guion Griffin and Boots Andrews. Bill Thompson is what one would call a true Rotarian, judging from my association with him. In surance is his cl i .o'JU ' .n. Tvo wt re on from Gastonia.' We juined the Dixie special at Stat--viile. Here we were met by Frank Lenz, who had charge of the Rotarians and provid ed us with identification badges. Six men went from Concord and they re marked that they didn't expect to beat Charlotte, but that they consid ered Gastonia as "easy pickings.'' Our train arrived at Asheville at 8 p. m. Here we were entertained by the Asheville Rotarians who gave us an automobile ride over the city and out through Biltmore where we were served ice cream at the famous Bilt more dairy. On the drive I had the privilege of being with Prof. R. L. flowers of Trinity College. In Mammouth Cave We left Asheville at 6 p. m. and soon had dinner 'on the train. The night was spent in traveling and we arrived at Louisville, Ky., at 9 o'clock Sunday morning. We left there atr 9:30 a. m. for Mammouth cave and arrived at Glasgow Junction at about noon. We caught a narraw-guaged dinkey train for the journey to the cave, arriving there at about 1 p. m. Here we had lunch before going into the cave. Being long-legged' I was of the first party to lunch and also to enter the cave. This brings me to the most interesting part of my jour ney, the cave itself. s We regaled our selves in a suit of overalls, using p red bandanna handkerchief lor our. head gear. There are four trips through the, cave,,' each requiring from four to ten hours. Our journed through took about live hours. ; : We had devotional exercises about one half a mile inside the cave. Some of the interesting features of the . cave are: - ; : V . Wooden bowl room, bottomless pit, valley of humidity, fat man's misery, dead sea, river Styx, purgatory, ,Echp river, Scotchman's . tra'p, corkscrew, and Mammouth dome. . ' ' . After the trip through the cave we returned to the Dixie special and spent the night en route to St. Louis, arriving there at 9 a. m. Monday. Here we were met bythe Rotarians of St. Louis with their own cars. Their cars were - labeled ' "Rotarian, Hop In." We were carried, to the Overland display rooms ,'to register and from there to the Colesium to the committee on credentials who gave delegates their identification badges, which permitted them to occupy the most desirable seats. The delegates had a blue ribbon for a badge. It was one of the thrills of my life to look inside the Coliseum before go ing to my hotel I was placed at the Albemarle ho tel with O. Joe Howard of Hickory, N. C. He was a most delightful com panion for me. , We were together most of the time. We attended a baseball game Monday afternoon. Convention Opens On Monday night the convention opened with a pageant, "Rotary Gar den of Nations. The Boy Scouts car ried 'flags representing the twenty seven nations embraced in Rotary. These flags were stationed among the I U'Lt I . - i I." t t, have tct.i j ; .. L; s cLf - i in EgypUi.i r curtained the convention v ',. a t ...n v-. Herman Spo ' -r, president of the St Louis club, t a f ave the address of welcome in which he said that St. Loirs was a city of homes and al ways at his house when company came in the .best places were given to the company and the homefolks had to. take what was left. This he said was to be the sentiment of ,St. Louis during the convention. Every body was delighted with th hospital ity of the city while we were there. Even "the street car- conductors did not hesitate to go out of their way to do a kind deed for vou; They seem ed to have the true Rotary spirit themselves. , f I desire most of all in this report to tell you in a general way 'about the convention as a whole and in ad dition something about the address given by Ray Havens.,- I feel like apologizing to the speakers ' on the program for giving the report that you will hear, for they put , so much pep into it that it-was made so in teresting that you wanted to really be the best Rotarian possible. What I shall give you will be like warm-: ed-over rations. You know pretty well what that means. Once, I heard of a girl who declined the attentions of a widower because she said that it would be like eating warmed-over things, and this she did not like to do. And I am reminded to say that jn comparing this report with -what Charlie Weaver gave last year you rnust remember that I am not as ac customed to broadcasting as he is and therefore my report must differ from his. :" - - V'.-- ' . :' v The . Teachings of Rotary Back of the whole program one could very easily determine that the central idea was to emphasize the principles of Hotary, what they, are and how they should affect the indi vidual Rotarian. I was glad to hear the speakers dwell upon the fact thai the results of the teaching of Rotarv depend entirely upon the individual Rotarian. This , was just the thing with which I tried to impress the club when I spoke briefly a few meetings ago. Good singing is a part of Ro tary, good fellowship is a part of Ro tary, good business success is part of Rotary, but the main thing in it all as I see it after hearing the high est authorities in Rotary speak is the question as to whether or not we are willing to actually practice what we know true Rotarians should do, in business and in profession. Roy Ha vens says that Rotary is not a beau tiful cloud of ideals floating' above our heads to look at and think about, but that it is something that must be come apart of the individual Rota rian if it is to accomplish its mission. Also. he said that true Rotarians are not only not afraid to learn what the ideals of Rotary are, but that he is also not afraid to learn what the 'ideals of Rotary are, but that he is daily work among his fellowmen. To the merchant it might mean to miss a sale; to the lawyer it might mean K--': r t-j (,.;-.:. v t.: . su.t to c ;,. c, t ) l. -i 1 ti-acher it rii-ht mean t. .-e - of criticism to follow a 1.. .j it but that is what liotary c. 1 Just here I should like to t(-i. Rotarian who had jjona to ths venticn with the idea of induls; drinking as his greatest pk He met a very cold shoulder so many Rotarians that he cl; his mind. When once he did st the point of indulging r.nd w proached for it it no replied:' you see I have removed my b He was not willing to drag J down to the point where he h would-go. The lesson we get that is that: If we. are not i to practice the teachings ; of 1 as we know it to be, then we get out of the club and not let dividual Rotarian be responsib dragging the fair name - of . 1 into the crookedness of the whether it is arquestion of m or business practice. - ' On speaker in commenting our business method should 1 marked that he was astonishei the people of America have as respWt for the laws of the e as they do when one sees hov are administered.' He told of w; ing an incident in court at on when two lawyers and a judg sumed a whole day in court ai what a complete oil well is. It have-been settled"in ten minut the" same time lawyers and witnesses ln.i another importan were waiting" for their case to This kind of stuff is a violation true spirit of Rotary. , ' ; r - The President's Vision Among other things Ray I said: "I "have caught a ,visi President of Rotary Internatio although on tomorrow I snail o a Rotarian in the ranks, my shall be the same. This is a vii what will'' be when all mei friends. ' Rotary is an organi of men who have discovered wh true meaning of the relations manity is and that the limit possibility of this discovery entire world.- Rotary is sona that grows while you talk.abot : "President Harding said he understand why Rotary had j how Rotary had become to e: a great influence.
