CONVENTION
Dr.
C.
II.
Hanklnson
Tells
Rotary
About
Big
Gathering
at
San
Francisco
A
very
interesting
description
of
the
recent
Rotary
International
convention
at
San
Francisco
which
he
attended
as
one
of
the
ten
thousand
delegates
was
given
by
Dr.
C.
H.
Hanklnson
at
the
Prince
Rupert
Rotary
Club
luncheon
yei-terday
afternoon.
The
convention
was
held
in
the
huge
civic
auditorium
and
was
attended
by
delegates
from
almost
'every
country
in
the
world.
On
the
walls
were
the
flags
of
all
nations
arid
the
presiding
officer
was
a
Frenchman
with
an
excellent
command
of
English.
A
picture
of
those
attending
the
British
Commonwealth
dinner
showed
Mr.
and
Mrs.
T.
H.
Johnson
of
Victoria
and
formerly
of
Prince
Rupert.
Among
the
outstanding
speakers
was
Harold
W.
Burton,
mayor
of
Cleveland,
who
spoke
on
"New
:Horlzoas"
in
which
he
recounted
the
work
done
in
his
city
by
the
Rotary
Club
through
an
organlra-
Uon
known
as
the
Boys'
Improvement
League
by
which
infractors
of
the
law
had
been
reduced
fifty
percent.
He
also
told
of
the
youth
guidance
work
done
in
other
places.
The
question
of
the
equitable
.
distribution
of
the
necessities
of
life
was
also
studied
by
the
dele
gates
at
the
convention.
The
speaker
told
of
the
"House
of
Friendship"
which
was
set
up
In
the
same
auditorium
where
the
big
gatherings
were
held.
Very
rapidly
the
hall
was
cleared
and
taken
in
charge
by.lorists.-who
rapidly,
con-,
verted
It
into
a
bower
of
flowers
with
thousands
of
roses
growing,
trees
in
bloom,
trimmed
hedges,
islands
of
flowers
and
the
usua'
garden
furniture
such
as
swings,
hammocks,
garden
chairs,
and
oarasols,
all
in
the
most
delightful
color
schemes,
each
island
being
the
meeting
place
of
people
from
one
or
more
nations.
The
hall
was
cleared
several
times
during
the
convention
and
each
time
was
quickly
reconverted
Into
a
garden.
Summing
up
his
observations,
Dr.
Hanklnson
said
he
felt
there
was
something
really
big
about
Rotary.
Here
were
these
thousands
ot
delegates
assembled
from
all
parts
of
the
world,
paying
their
own
expenses
and
all
for
the
purpose
of
trying
to
help
in
the
solution
of
the
big
problems
of
mankind.
