KORNER
“WE BUILD”
Edited by Publicity Committee of
Clinton Kiwanis Club.
Visiting Kiwanians Always Welcome
At the regular meeting last Thurs
day evening, the attendance was al
most perfect and The Korner was de-
after which a motion was unanimous
ly adopted endorsing the local ca|m-
paign.
Ralph Blakely, well known young
man who is giving his life to trying
to make people's feet comfortable,
was received and welcomed as a new
member. John McSweep especially
was delighted by Ralph’s induction
into the organization since it afford
ed him, he said, an opportunity to as
sociate witii a real man in the club
and one that he can Ibolc squarely in
the face.
At the meeting plans were com
pleted for the trip to Columbia Fri
day to join with Kiwanians from all
over the state in welcoming 0. Sam
Cummings of Dallas, Texas, president
of Kiwanis International. Eighteen
members made the trip and with the
hidden talents and realization of the
fact that human beings must serve as
well as make a living.
Next, he said, service clubs build
better business. The other fellow is
a contemporary, rather than a com
petitor. Co-operation is the keynote,
and through the service clubs men
learn how to co-operate with fellow
business men. “We build one another,”
he said.
And better communities! The word
“service club” was earned during the
war. Before J that, these organizations
were known as luncheon clubs. But
in 1917-1918 the test was met, and the
best was brought out. Outstanding
men were already organized for ser
vice, and through these clubs great
good was done. In those years the

on the timely topic, “Does America
Need the Service Clubs?” His answer
most emphatically, was “Yes.”

ever a club gets so it cannot serve,
when it gets to be a man’s sewing cir

then it has ceased to fill its purpose
in the community. It must serve oth

And better society!

Oil Magnate Surrenders In Washing

Washington, May 6.—Harry F. Sin
clair entered jail tonight to serve
three months for contempt of the
United States senate.
Word of the oil man’s arrival at the
jail came shortly after a conference
between EMgar C. Snyder, United
States marshal, and Major William L.
Peaki superintendent of the Washing
ton asylum and jail.
Tension about the jail had been at
a high pitch for several hours before
the oil man finally surrendered him
self.
His whereabouts had not been
known all during the day, and it was
a matter of speculation as to whether
he would surrender tonight or wait a
day or so.
The automobile that brought Sin
clair to jail was preceded by one and
followed by another. His machine was
driven up in front of the district jail
and the chauffeur quickly unloaded

Mr. Cummings urged his hearers to

he spoke briefly, of some Kiwartls
aims. Of more enlightened citizenship.

This calculation, based upon checks'
of the senate membership by both ad
ministration supporters and the de-1
' benture group, presupposed that all
!members not paired would be present'
I for the vote and would cast their bal-'
lot as expected.
The checks showed a coalition of al
most all the Democrats with twelve
I Republican independents standing
; against the administration group,
which is seeking to eliminate the de
benture section. While the others stood
at 46 to 45 against them with one
senator considered doubtful and one
still not paired, advocates of the de
benture plan professed confidence that
they would gain strength rather than
lose within the next two days.
The debenture section will be voted
upon probably late Wednesday. An
agreement was reached to limit fur-
jther debate on the proposal after 2
;p. m. Wednesday and under the usual
procedure a vote generally is taken
within a few hours after the limita
tion goes into effect. A final vote on
the farm bill itself, however, probab
ly will not be reached until late this
I week or perhaps next Monday.
