PAGE TWO WILL CRESSY AT THE CONVENTION BY WILL M CRESSY ( Well, I lived through my first' war anyway. The Battle of Clev e land left many bottle-scarred hero. •j dead on the field. But I pulled through, and am now among those present at the Siege of Itork-towr.. If I get through this I will probably last until the Armistice, March Fourth. And this one looks more like a real war. There is none of that “preparedness” about it that was so apparent at Cleveland. There are more unbranded mavericks among the delegates. Sort of. Now here 1 am, a stout, healthy delegate, sound in limb, wind and voting power. What am I offered? Even the music here is different. At Cleveland it was all “Happy Cal, the Merry Monarch.” H< re up to date, it seems to be “The Mikado.” (Only they spell it “Mc- Adoo.”) At Cleveland it was “Favorite Son.” Here it is a “Favorite Son in-Law.” Not that the Mikado has it all his own way. There are at least four other strong contenders, to say nothing of THIRTY-TWO “Favorite Sons” from all over America willir g to offer themselves as a com promise. There is a certain very moist party by the suspicious name of Al (I think his middle name is K-holt Smith of New York, who might be persuaded to listen to his country’s call, if it called loud enough and wet enough. personally I like Mr. Mickie-Doo’a chances the best.

He had tried practically everything for the relief of constipation. All had failed. But Kellogg’s Bran brought him perma nent relief, just as it has done for thousands of others. Read his letter: Gentlemen: | I am 43 years old, and have been tor years a great sufferer from constipation. I had to resign a clerical position because of rushes of blood to my head, some of which caused me to fall to the ground. I took an outdoor laboring job and tried for the first time, skeptically A I admit, your Krumbled Bran. The I, result has been wonderful.

I have got it yet. But he told me to hang on to it. He said that some time it would be a great watering place. Well if it ever is I shall be sitting easy; for I have the place and I have the water. And if the Atlantic Ocean ever lowers three feet I shall have some land. , Mister Smith seems to be very strong all up and down the Atlantic coast—and still stronger out about 12 miles. He will not do very well down Texas way where the favorite brand just at present seems to be the 3-K mark. But the “Casey Family” will be with him to a man. And then he will have a great family following, too. There will be the Coughdrop Brother, and L. C. Smith Brother, and the Sm'lh- Premiers, and the Smithsonian Mu seum Employes, and the Black smiths’ Union, and the Silversmiths, and the O’Smiths of Ireland, and the Mac Smiths of Scotland, and tr.e Schmitts of Germany, and the Srn't ovittz of Russia. I guess it will be quite a Donnie brook Affair. NEW BAUXITE MINE TO BE DEVELOPED DAWSON, June 20.

ROTARIANS ADVANCE ETHICAL PRACTICES Many Organizations Have Adopted Standard Codes During Past Year TORONTO June 20.--Thirty-six national, international ana state <.r provincial trade and professional or ganizations have adopted codes of standard ethical practices for their members during the past year Ro tarians were told by Raymond M. Havens of Kansas City during the course of the second day’s session of their international convention here today. There are 53 great nation al trade and professional organiza tions now operating with ethi al codes binding their members to dis card the old ‘let the buyer be ware” and “business is business” idea and adopting the ideal that a business ‘s only truly productive of profits to its owner as it gives ser vice to the community in which it is establirhed. As Chairman of the International Committee on Business Methods, Mr. Havens, former international president of Rotary, told his fellow members from all over the world of tile progress that had been made with the Rotary idea of unselfish service in business. Reports were presented from England New Zea land Japan- Cuba and other sections of the world. In England business ethics formed the basis of a course of lectures at one of its great uni versities and in this country mem bers of the faculties of both Har vard and Yale have interested themselves in the matter. High schools in different sections of the country have encouraged stu dents to adopt codes of ethics and a study of business practices the convention was told. This is “The Rotary Idea” day at the convention and the entire pro gram is designed to show the pro gress that has been made in de veloping ethical practices in the bus! ness and professional world. John R. Williams of Long Beach. Calif, chairman of the International com mittee on Rotary Education told the convention of the work of his com mittee in developing an undersand ing of the Rotary idea of service in individual Rotarians so that they could best act as missionaries to their business and professional asso ciates. ~ Harry Bert Craddick of Minnea polis chairman of the committee on Classifications told of the work of classifying professions and business es so that each individual member I of Rotary would have a clear cut classification in his club. He said a Rotary Club is really a cross sec tion of the business and profession al community with but one man from each business or profession who is selected solely as being rep resentative of his classification and represent Rotary to his classifica tion Edward J. Cattell of Philadel pia Pa. made a stirring address on friendship and Rotary’s idea in de veloping it. This afternoon three special as sembles are being held to discuss club administrative problems and tonight the annual reception and ball by the international president | will be given. GERTRUDE WRYE AND BROTHER DROWNED WAYCROSS, June 20.
