FRED IlIORAN IITS IIIWANIS
LADIES’ NIGHT IN GOOD HUMOR
SWI'I'IYADDRESS
Fred Moran, vice president of the Norwalk Kiwanis club,
He has an irrestible sense of humor.
ted in the address he delivered
at the Ladies’ Night dinner held at the Norwalk Country club
Mr. Moran’s address was as follows:
we're going to give you a. surprise."
So this is something more than a.
few friendly ..words of greeting to
the ladies, it's a. surprise for the
committee.
It may seem strange to you ladies
that a. club like Kiwanis that is
supposed to possess so many vir-
tues hould need a VICE President.
tI isn't nearly so terrible as it
sounds, but. the responsibilities or
the office are tremendous. Once a
week, our president. in the exercise
of the power vested in him by the
constitution, rises at. his place and
with a mighty crash of the gavel
announces to an expectant audience
that we will now have the roll call.
And _thcn——it is up to the vice presl-
dent to see if each member knows
his name.
Tonight I thought it might be of
interest to the ladies to introduce
a few personal notes gathered from
our Thursday noon meetings, but
I’m not going to do it, for I am
aware that most of our members
are married men so. of course.
ladies, your husbands have already
told you everything. You have
heard what the spirit of Kiwanis is.
you know how the membership of
our club is made up. “’0 are for
the most part business men. with
a generous sprinkling of the pro-
fessional brethren. who prescribe
for us legally. medically and spiri-
tually. This is generally administer-
ed in 15 minute doses. after meals.
in cigar smoke. To the credit of
the clcrgymen must it be said. they
seldom miss the meetings, and very
rarely are all of them away at the
some time. but it did happen once.
That day the president had to call
upon one of the business men to
offer grace. Saying grace was a
new role for the business man, but
The president is wondering when
I am going to get down to my sub-
ject. Well. you know how it is
when you have been waiting a. long
time fer a. chance to get. in a. few
words. Right here. before I go an-
other word further, let me repeat
what the president has already said:
Ladies. we are mighty glad to have
you for dinner with us. We hope
-you will make yourselves at. home,
only please do not. take away with
you the impression that Kiwanis
lives merely to eat. Some of our
members say they “could not live
on what Kiwanis gives them to est.
“he have almost. everything in the
way of food. but we have no (that's
right) bananas. These men pro-
bably would not kick so much about
our meals if you ladies did not. feed
them so well at. home. Let me tell
you about one Kiwanian whose wife
was taken ill and had to go to the
hospital for two Weeks. During that
time this man got his own meals
at home. Later some one asked his
wife how he got along. if he on-
joyed it. The wife said: Well, he
says he did but I notice the parrot
learned to swear while I was away.
M1111 made 111mm generally have
a kick in them. In Kiwanis. happily,
we have no chronic kickers. or
knockers. \Ve believe that continual
knocking, in an individual is just
as much evidence of lack of power
as it is in an automobile. The
country “011m be much better off
if we l1a\c fewer people throwing
bricks and more laying them. “It:
build. that's our motto, but not with
bricks. “'0 deal less with the ma-
tcrial and more with the human
element. “’0 build co-operatively
for—tile civic welfare: we build for
the intellectual and physical ad-
vancement of the under-privileged;
we build friendships among our-
selves. “'0 want to broaden those
friendships to include our families;
we want you to know us better.
You, as housekeepers and we. as
stow-keepers and shopkeepers. have
much in common. There's the help
problem for example. And I’ll let
you into a secret when I tell you
that this meeting was held on \Vcd-
nesday evening instead of our
regular day. Thursday, so you could
get a night off. Next summer take
a week of! and go with us to the
Kiwanis convention at Denver.
You'll got five times as much fun
there as we can give you here.
Some or our ladies already know
this. There was a fine delegation
with us at Atlanta last summer. and
me of a. story. It was there I heard
it. (Englishman’s story).
Now ladies. I want to conclude
with a serious note. and I never was
more sincere. Kiwanis is toundedo
upon the Golden Rule. That may
be interpretted in different ways.
I like to think of it this way. The
Kiwanis rule is a two foot rule, one
foot of which represents honesty
and fair dealing, the other foot co-
operation and mutual respect. We;
stand squarely on both feet. That
is the rule we follow. but the rule
is only one-half of it. The other
half, which comes first. the better
hair, which is called Golden, our
better halves. that's you. our wives
whose influence directs us. And so
tonight, ladies, on behalf of the
Norwnlk Kiwanis Club, I am de-
lighted, Just delighted. to welcome
you.
KIWANIANS
PREPARING '
FOR NEW YEAR
To Take Up Budget for
1924 - 1924 at Next
Meeting —;— A Christ-
mas Tree?
Mombcrs of the Board of Directors
of the Norwalk Kiwanis Club are
toduv giving serious consideration
to the budget for 1924-4925 which
will be acted upon at a. meeting of
the board to be held next Thursday.
incorporated in this budget will be
funds for the projects which Kiwan-
is hope to accomplish during ‘he
year.
One of the. most important pro—
Jects which the Kiwanisclub will
undertake is the conducting of a
prize essay contest among the stu-
dents of the Senior High upon a
subject which has not been chosen
as yet. Last year this essay contest
attracted much attention and de-
veloped into something worth while.
The students at the school took a
real interest in it and worked hard
to win the prize which was a trip to
\i'nshington. D. C.. at the expense of
the Kiwanis club.
it is probably. too, that when the
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
walk has a municipal tree.
President Arthur C. \V heeler has
I. lot. of good ideas up his sleeve.
For instance. he is greatly desirous
of increasing inter-club relations.
He wants members of one club visit-
ing another club. For instance he
feels that Norwalk should -visit
Stamford. Bridgeport. and other
clubs throughout the state; and these
clubs should return these visits. He
believes the Kiwanis motto "“‘e
build" may be greatly exemplified
through increased Inter-club rela-
tions.
Mr. Wheeler believes that the use
of nick-names is an aid to the suc-
cess of any organization. There is
an interesting editorial on this sub-
ject in the January issue of The Ki-
wants Magazine. This editorial
reads:
ltJ’m9I

thus he is unknown. “JT’ <m1th

The best human organization is
the family. Among the deepest of
instincts is the family instinct. In
the family each works for the other.
not against the other. The weak
member is not always helped, not
crushed to the wall.
In the family it is the joy of the
strong and the wealthy to support
the weak and pcnnilcss. In the

one member of a family needs verb-
al or financial support it is forth-
coming as a matter of course.
The most perfect organization
must of necessity be an imitation of
the family. If a Kiwanis club
make a. big success lot. it take its
lessons from the family organiza-
tion. as the model from which to
work.
