They asked no help, but relied on their courage and their own efforts to build the foundations of a great nation. Today, may we give thanks for the blessings we have enjoyed and for the fruits of our labors, just as did the Pilgrims. But today, we should do more than merely give thanks. We should re-appraise our system of free enterprise which has given us individual liberty, progress and strength. Let us not only give thanks » l e t us resolve to protect and strengthen our liberty and our freedom. .X The Montana Power Company N tJ the outstanding exhibits it is im possible to rate them in order of ability.

Awards will be judged by number as names will be taken off of entry blanks. try like India, or any other of dif ferent color and speech, it is de sired that the clubs be made up of native of the country and not by resident Americans or English men. The ensuing diversity creates complications, for thoughts vary with the languages. The slogan formerly used on Rotary station ery, “He profits most who serves best,” has been dropped because it is not possible to .express the thought concisely in some lan guages. It illustrates the diffi culties of understanding among divisions of people. Davis’ closing thought was to the effect that though humanity has had a hard time ironing its' difficulties, peoplei are smart and are trying. They may have to do much talking, but they are bet ter equipped and have a better chance now than heretofore.— Laurel Outlook. Dr. and Mrs. George L.

General rummage—in good condition and many unusual articles District Governor Is Laurel Visitor The Laurel Rotary club was host Tuesday to Dr. Sheldon Davis of Dillon, governor of the Mon tana Rotary district who had come to make an official visit. Monday evening he conducted a club assembly of officers and committee chairmen. He occupied the program time at the general meeting Tuesday noon to review the work of the Rotary organization throughout the world. Aifter saying that most of the labors of humanity are preceded and accompanied by extensive discussions, such as mark the United Nations sessions, he observed that exchange of thought is an essential in the per formance of work and that such exchanges are being employed in ! the endeavor to establish lasting ‘ world peace. This reflects the Rotary attitude 'that acquaint anceship and fellowship contrib ute to good will among individ uals and nations. A part of his address was de voted to a description of the Ro tary structure and functions. Of structure, he said there are two major divisions assemblies that are work groups without author ity to enact legislation, and con ventions with voting authority. The system operates on the vari ous levels—in the local clubs, on a district basis, and internation ally. The secretariat of Rotary International, which serves clubs throughout the world, is located in Chicago. Chicago is also the home of Ro tary club No. 1, and only one in the city. New York City has eight, while London, England, a large city of comparable size, has 80. The English take the position that when all the business and professional classifications of a club are occupied, there are still many men in the community who should be included but are barred because all the membership posi tions have been filled. They go around the classification restric tion by dividing their large cities into districts and establishing new clubs. The International governing heads wish native clubs in the re spective nations.
