Association of Great Britain and Ireland at Folkestone thirteenth annual
conference of the Rotary International We are glad to note that Prince George opened the on Saturday. For this movement, designed to promote fellowship among business and professional men, has unquestionably done an immense amount of good, and not least in the smaller towns. The weekly lunch, followed by a short address from some guest on a question of the day, has brought men of different trades and callings together in a friendly and non-political atmosphere, and made them conscious of their duty to the community. Rotary was invented in America, but it has spread rapidly throughout the English-speaking world because its aims are essentially unselfish. Prince George, in his admirable speech, stressed the world-wide value of Rotary and its confidence in the advancement of international under- standing, good will and peace. Never were such efforts more needed than to-day.
