October 50, 1945. Mr. Justin Hill, Chairman, Rotaryann Committee, Lawrence, F ansase Dear Jus: Governor Homer Kingsley Ebright of our 123rd District will pay his official visit on Monday, Nov- ember 8, and as is the custom each chairman is supposed to present a written report of his committee's activi- ties, plans and purposes. This report is to be filed in duplicate. I am writing Governor Ebright to find what time he will arrive for the Rotary Assembly, but I presume it will be about 10:30 in the morning. The chairmen are supposed to be present to read their written ree ports. While we depend on Margaret to put over the program for the Rotaryann Committee, we count on you to make a fulsome report. Will you kindly be prepared ta give the same and be present in person? If you cannot be present, have your report ready and have some member of your committee make the report for you.

LAWRENCE ROTARY CLUB BULLETIN LAWRENCE, KANSAS OCTOBER 15, 1943 a ee ee ee MONDAY'S PROGRAM — NEW DIRECTORY - ROTARYANN PARTY - GOVERNOR VISITS - PERSONALS - TALK -- WORK —-- Dillon S. Myer, director of the War Relocation Authority, will talk about handling the Japs in America. We get lir. Myer through the good offices of Verl Bratton. Verl is a former associate and close friend of Leland Barrows, who is second in command of the WR A. Barrows, Myer, and Milton Eisenhower, former WR A chairman, were all close friends in Washington. The Board voted to get out a new directory of the club, and it seems high time. We have 62 members now not count— ing the 6 military honorary members. Nineteen of us have joined Rotary in the last year. The much discussed Rotaryann party has been postponed un- til November 1. Margaret Hill has charge, and Margaret is a ball of fire on getting up interesting parties. Don't forget to be ready with definite reservations when the call comes. Be ready to say "Yes" or "No." Governor Homer Kingsley Ebright visits us November 8. We will have club assembly when he comes with the reports from all committeemen. Col. Lyle Powell is in town. Doubtless he will be on hand Monday ..... Here is a hand to a’former member, Cliff Cal- vin. He misses Rotary more than anything in the world. His new job makes it impossible to continue membership and stay out every Monday until 2 o'clock. It was thoughtful of Phog to invite him as a guest last week....incidentally, wasn't that an enjoyable program of good music?.... Dolph Simons is state publicity chairman for the United War Loan Fund under Lieutenant Governor Jess Denious from Dodge City..... Ted Aszman is away this week getting elected Moderator for the Presbyterian Church in Kansas...... Ike Meade went through a major operation. The best of luck to you, Ike. FOR AMERICA. a a AMERICA SHARE S. Around the Rotary World in Wartime Fellowship Thought Those appearing on our pro- grams often go to considerable trouble, often spending several hours in preparing their ad- ' dress. It only takes you a mo- ment or two to thank him after the meeting. This makes the speaker think that his efforts have been appreciated, that per- haps his work has meant some- thing to you and your club. He is due that courtesy. The above paragraph was taken from THe GATEWaAy GEAR, publication of the Rotary Club of Laredo, Texas; but it may do us no harm to think about this in our club. Team Work The Rotary Club of Portales, New Mexico, divided the mem- bers into two teams, made a total of 462 contacts, and sold War Bonds to the value of $130,- 830, while the members alone purchased $25,825 worth of bonds. This club also sponsored the county drive, for over a half million dollars. To VICTORY With WAR BONDS and STAMPS Over a MILLION Dollars The Rotary Club of Minot, North Dakota, .together with the local Kiwanis club, spon- sored a War Bond Drive in which over a million dollars was raised. 10B-43 FERNANDO CARBAJAL, DIRECTOR, ROTARY INTERNATIONAL, 1943.44. Fernando Carbajal is vice- president of the Peruvian Tele- phone Company in Lima, Peru, director of the Industrial Bank of Peru, and vice-president of the Crandall Engineering Com- pany of Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A. Mr. Carbajal was born in Lima, Peru. For two years, fol- lowing his graduation from the Peruvian School of Engineering and Mining, he was an engineer on the construction of the Pana- ma Canal. In 1921 he organized the Ro- tary Club of Lima, Peru, and is a past president of that club. He has been active in Rotary Inter- national as district governor, committee chairman and mem- ber, vice-president, and as presi- dent (in 1942-43). For 1943-44 he is serving as a director of Rotary International and as a member of the committee on participation of Rotarians in the post-war world. During his year as Rotary president, Mr. Carbajal visited every country in the western hemisphere, and was decorated with high honors by the govern- ments of Bolivia, Chile, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Peru. Boston University gave him the honorary degree of Doctor of Science because of his accomplishments in the field of international good will and understanding. Should We Complain? Things are getting a bit tough- er for us, but we should not complain. In Norway, for in- stance, they live on gray bread of mixed flour; poor margarine; cod’s roe; occasional sardines; ersatz coffee, or tea substitute, with saccharine; one-fourth litre of milk per adult per day so devoid of fat as to be popularly called “doubly purified”; salt fish five or six times a week. (All fresh fish go to German troops.) In a restaurant, to get a boiled potato, you have to hand in a raw one of equal size. Lemon- ade without sugar—made with crystal lozenges. Some work- men thought themselves lucky to have mustard on their bread. Should we complain? —THE ARC Adams, N. Y. As we make strong units we make strong Rotary. —President Charles L. Wheeler Work Pile Project The Rotary Club of Black River Falls, Wisconsin, has ini- tiated a Work Pile Project. The members of this club are now conducting a survey of work that can be done during the post-war period. Kid Salvage seen: | s Read THE ROTARIAN Osteber 21, 19435.

Mr. Stanley Schwahn, Granada Theatre, Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Stan: I trust that wheat I did Monday caused no enbarragsment to you, when I gaid “You and I are — beth ready now to sit dow." The main idea you got across, namely that when anyone had more than one guest at Rotary they are supposed to call Mike Getto and notify him. I elaborated on that definitely, so I am sure that your talk was very constructive and called attention to the fact that very few members in the club knew that Mike was rumiing close on ration points and needing the cooperation of all ef us. I thank you for being a joyful animated cartoon. : Rotarily yours, — FCA:An : President. October 5, 1945. Mr. Eugene Brune, 601 Mississippi St., Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Gene: Yesterday at Rotary I announced that you were perking up as I caught you moving around the house on your way to the dinner table. I also told the Rotarians that Corlett Cotton had called on you Saturday, so doubtless you will hear from other members of Rotary real soon. We are hoping a good book will fill some of your epare moments. Your wife is taking sare of the spare tire around your waistline. I know, because I amelled that good food when I was there yesterday. Here's hoping you have en early recovery. — With all good wishes, I an Rotarily yours, PCA: AH ' President. I want you to know how happy we were to have you back with us at Rotary.

And too, it is too bad that this long eleven or twelve year stretch of conseautive attendance record might be broken by your injury.
