Kotarians To Meet
In Cleveland, Ohio
Fifteen thousand jtotnrtans will
gather In Cleveland. Ohio. June U>23.
for the tTitrtietvi animal convention
of Kotary International. Hy airplane,
by train, by auto, by ship; from
Japan, from China, from India, from j
South Africa, from SoOth America,
from almost every country of the
world, Kotarians will gather to elect,
Kotury'a International officers, to
vote on legislation, to renew old
friendships and create new ones.
In view of the strife and disputes
which for many mouths have threatened
to split the world Into a series
of armed camps, this gathering comes,
as something unique, not without In-1
splratlon and cause for much rotlec-'
tion. Scattered throughout the world,
serving as lines of demarcation be-J
tween nationalities, are rivers, mountains,
oceans, or Just Imaginary lines !
It is true that such geographical barriers
do serve to separate the many
nations, and many of us have come to
believe that they comprise much more
than that?that the people who live
on this side of the mountain or river
or ocean are fundamentally different
from those who live on the other side.
Thus, Kotarians from both sides of
the mountain or rlvVr or ocean, from
fifty countries of the world, representing
almost every known political
and religious belief and speaking
more than a score of tongues, will
gather for notary's International convention.
They'll meet on the basis of
friendship and goodfellowshlp, not to
discuss the political problems of the
world, but rather the more personal
things; their vocations, their hobbles,
the activities of their own Kotary
clubs such as work for crippled children,
community projects, Hoy Scouts,
student exchange, and so on the
things which are discussed friend to
friend and man to man.
Because the Rotary Club has been
used by novelists as a symbol ofj
America, the tnternatlonallty of Ro-(
tary Is often overlooked. It is true
that Kotary was founded In Chicago,,
but since its origin In the organization
has grown to world-wide proportions
with almost 5.000 clubs with
a membership of more than 205,000 in
wo countries or geographical regions,
of the world. Rotary numbers in itsranks
not only business and professional
men in every vocation but also j
royalty, government officials, stateB-^
men. authors, journalists and editors,
men who exert great influence In
, their countries.
Kotary's work is of a quiet nature,
conducted with a minimum of publicity.
Its greatest efforts are toward
training its members for service and
instilling jn them a consciousness of
individual responsibility toward their
customers or clients, their community,
and their nation.
The thirtieth annual convention ot
Kotary comes as a crowning event t<?
another year of progress and achievement
of an organization young ip
years but already a potential factor
in t lie promotion of international
peace, friendship, understanding and
good will. .
Garden Hints For June
Spring blooming flowers are now
over and should be pulled out. Shake
the dead stalks of California and shirley
poppies to insure a supply of
plants next season. New seeds of
cornflower and larkspur should be
planted In the fall. Save the finest
stalks of foxgloves, hollyhocks and
sweet Williams and let the seed fall
under the plants. Keep columbines
growing by cutting off the dead flower
stalks. Pinch off the dying flowers
of day lilies each morning. Keep
verbenas and petunias clipped and
feed them w^th small portions of Yigc?ro.
Camellias and azaleas and newly
transplanted shrubs should be {
mulched and protected from the heat}
by screens of narrow slats of wood.
The best mulch Is peat moss do not
uso grass clippings because they
cause heat. When watering do not
depend on sprinkling but soak the
ground well.
Spray with Bordeaux mixture for
mildew, rust and black spot. I se
i Bda< k-l-eaf 4u for sue king insects and
i nursery vob-k for scale \V hen using
an all-purpose spray, only one sprayting
is needed for all diseases and insects,
The best of these is Triogen
Always spray in the late afternoon
and be sure the whole plant is covered
over and under the leaves.

victory in Spain as a triumph for j

If our country is to endure, it must
have it sound financial system. The,
vagaries of some of the hard-pressed
European countries may do very well'
over there, but they don't accord with
the American tradition of soundness
and sense. The House vote the other
day on the Townsend bill Is an evl-j
dence of returning sanity, let It be
hoped. It would be grand and entrancing,
If the old people of the country
could have $200 per month handed

of taxes and taxes have to be paid by |
the sweat of the brow, or words to
that effect, by President Roosevelt, it)
is simply Impossible to provide such
a sum. Hocus pocus and slelght-of-l
hand methods work wonders some-,
times to the eye, but so far as known
they don't produce cold cash.?Chester
