Thus, the golden years of Ki wanis indicates service to others. As a phrase, it does not take long to say. but as an idea it persists for centuries. With this idea be hind it and with the motto “We Build” as its byword Kiwanis In ternational expanded from an obscure local benevolent dub in to a respected international or ganization. The record of Ki wanis growth in the past five de cades reveals the story of ever expanding Influence, ever in creasing concern for the pro blems of our time. Kiwanis was born in January, 1915, In the city of Detroit and a few months la- Once again it is time in Kiwahfs. It is the steeped in good cheer, delight ful fellowship, enduring friend ships. noble accomplishments, and hope for the achievement of greater things. As each year passes, addition al evidence is given proving the extent to which Kiwanis is iden tified with selfless service. In dividual Kiwanians in over 5,000 communities are joining day-to- day effort, fostering activities for the betterment of theri fel- lowman. Evidence of past ac complishment compels Kiwan ians to continue and to extend their participation in all types KEPOKT OF CONDITION OP Bank of Clinton of Clfotan, hi the State of South Carolina, at flh SI, 1994 Cash, balances with other banks, and process of cpUection items in United States Government obligations, direct and guaranteed Obligations of States and politcial subdivisions Other bonds, notes, and debentures (including m,- 908.75 securities of Federal agencies and tions not guaranteed by U. 8.)

In 1916, these t«ro clubs grew into sixteen, one being organized in Hamilton, Ontario. The first convention was held in Cleveland, Ohio, at which time a constitution was drawn up and international of ficers selected. , Delegates to the Detroit, Mich, igan convention chose as their emblem the words “Kiwanis Club’* enclosed in a double cir- c'e. A two^room Kiwanis Head quarters was established iif Chlf,; cago with a full time internation al secretary in 1918. In 1620, the Kiwanis motto “We Build” was prosposed and adopted. Hence, building for civic betterment has been the big outstanding feature movement everywhere. Today there are more than 285,000 men in over 5,000 communities con cerned with the accomplishment of the noble and high ideals of Kiwanis International. We are confident that the ex pression of this ideal, “We build through community sendee*' is not a formula but the concrete expression of a wonderful prin- J ciple. A principle has perman ent validity, thus, hi this golden anniversary year all Kiwanians and the general public, with the knowledge of this great institu tion, win be thinking about tha great accomplishments of Ki wanis in agriculture and conser vation. in rural-urban coopera tion. in public life and business affairs, in health and sanitation, in safety programs, in the sup port of churches and their spiri tual aims, in boys and girls work, in the organization of Key Chibs and Circle K. groups to gether with outstanding pro grams of vocational guidance vounseling and underprivileged child work. AO of which and many other categories of action are embodied in the total func tional activities of Kiwanis In ternational. U is an ideal time to inventory as a Kiwanian your personal strengths and wsakiwtsr How opportune a period for one to evaluate what you have done in Kiwanis and what you want to accomplish in this year of 1965. No organization succeeds with out a periodic survey. Kiwanis membership is never sold for money. It is earned by the kind of life that a man Uvea. The sentiments, the objectives in our program, like underprivi leged child work, our work with boys and girls, our scout pro grams, better understanding be tween Ur farmer and the city man, our work in promoting tha best interest of churches and hundreds of other noble ideals are ao> eminently worthwhile that they canont be purchased in the mart of trade. When we think of the Clinton Kiwanis Club we are reminded , Mg the oldest civic organi- CUnton and ranks first to be formed in South Carolina. As Kiwanis In ternational this week celebrates its 56th anniversary, the Clinton Kiwanis Club looks back on more than forty years Trf service to this community. It was on July 17, 1923, that the Clinton Club received its charter through presentation by the Columbia group. At that time there were only four Ki wanis Clubs in the state and the was £ A faeortt* msetteg plana the aariy yam was la the CUn- ton Hotel room which eras oc cupied prior to the tsarlng; down' of this building by Mason’s Bar ber Shop. From there the place shifted to the Hotel’s central din ing room then to the P. C. din ing hail during and immediately after World War n, and finally to the Mary Musgrove Hotel, the site where Ctinton Ki- win to 8hy Not one of the twenty charter members is living today but the spirit of service embodied in this wonderful organization continues to abide. Through the yean Clinton has provided five lieu tenant governors of divisioa .9. John H. Hunter, Sr., W. W. Har. Young, and more recently J. C. only eight years old. The first meeting of the Clin ton Club was held in the base- metat of Slmpeon’s Furniture Store with twenty charter mem- ben present They elected But ler H. Boyd the first president. T Let us make (his, our golden anniversary year, the time for an energetic effo$ to prepare for what lies ahead of us rather than for only a nostalgic review of what lies behind. The pro blems that lie ahead for Kiwanis in its next 90 yean will be larger and more complex than we today can even imagine. Sonihvof them will be wi Jwot Iwittvw history i cend even the nothing of the kind has relied upon in the pact But we«will have one unchanging principle to guide no that of our dedication to the spirit of service. Being built upon a strong foundation of service, Ki wanis Clubs under wise and in telligent laadfnhlp have always been a powerful Influence for good and their many contrlbu- tions to the welfare and pro gress of grateful communities enhance the splendid reputation Kiwanis International enjoys' and so richly deserves. —M.
