I wonder if it will not be possible for us to have one or two inter-ocity groups here during the year? I know you had bad luck with the golfers when you were rained out, too, wo have some fine meetings about on us and I think it would pep it up if we could have the out-siders a time or two. We have Frank Brittain on the. 29th of December who will speak on “Let's Save America's Business". He is a very interesting speaker and we have had very fine reports from Topeka and Chilicothe where he spoke. That, of course, is after Christmas. | Next Monday we have Rev. L.H. Griffith, Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, who will speak on “The Business of Douyas County", and on December 1 Doctor Powell will speak. 4 Dolph Simons is going to have some very interesting movie views soon. On December 8 Chancellor Malott is entertaining the Rotarians — on the campus. On the 15th and 22nd are our Christmas meetings. I am giving you these dates so that you may look about. Of course, you are the boss, but we hope that you can bring in one or two of these out-side groups. . Rotarily yours, | Chairman, Program Committee .
