' New Haven. Conn..
January 1, 1924.
Members or the Kiwanis Club of
l
V
the New England Kiwanis District
has come to an end. I wish that 1
might. in some way express my
grateful appreciation of the loyal
support given me by each of the
Kiwanis clubs in the District. 1
have been thrilled all through the
year by this friendly loyalty. Given
as it was to one who was a. stranger
to most. of you, I tell: that this loy-
alty must be something better and
bigger than regard for any one man.
that. it was loyalty to the office. born
or a desire to stand by the Governor
whoever he might be. It Is. I think.
evidence of a. growing unity in our
New England District.
And now we enter upon a new
y r under a. new Governor. I do
not need to ask your support for
Walter Campbell, he has already
won it. for himself. We can best
express it not in words but in each
one of us doing what he can during
the coming year for his oWn club
and for the District as well—indeed
one of the best ways of working for
the District is .to work for ouc's own
club.
Thinking back over the past year
and drawing upon my knowledge of
Kiwanis Clubs in New England. I
am convinced that the three most
important essentials for a. good lil-
wanls club are hard work. strong.
wise leadership and a high type of
club spirit. I have found these cs-
scntials for the most part in those
clubs which keep in touch with oth~
cr clubs through inter-club meet-
ings. charter nights, and com-cm
ilous. If there is any one message
which I should like above all othcrs
to leave with you. It is this: Let .
each member get all the Inspiration ,
he can from fellowship with mom-
bers of his own club and from con-
tact. with members of other clubs.
Life today demands. as it always has
demanded, courage and the will to
do. Both of these qualities are kcpti
alive and strong by the lnspiratinn'
which comes from contact with oth-
ers. This is true not only of indi-v
“duals but of groups of individuals:
like Kiwanis Clubs. 5
“’0 often speak of the Kiwanis:
spirit. but it would be narrow and;
presumptious to think of it as any-5i
thing peculiar to Kiwanis alcnrq;
rather it is 1h cspiril. of fellowship!
and service which right thinking:
men are trying to cultivate every-2
where. And 50. men of Klwanis.‘
drink deep or this spirit. take it’
with you as inspiration and ('nconr—i
agcmcnt throughout the now your?
and all the years to conic—this is:
the sincere wish of one to whnmi
Kiwanis has given more than I
can ever give in return.
Your fellow Kiwnnian.
