AMERICAN CHARACTER, UNFIXED, DEPENDS ON US, ROTARIANS TOLD I "Civilization of nations Is exemplified by their type of national dog. The dog of each country has been taken at a plastc stage and molded, kicked and cuffed into the type of dog desired, the type exemplary of the civilization itself," Rev. Emil Baumann, pastor of the Forrest Avenue Presbyterian church at Dayton, Ohio, declared at the noon luncheon of the Rotary club, Tuesday. Rev. Baumann's subject was "The' Future of "America." in his effort to foretell the future of our country, he pointed to the effects of the various influences which effect our civilization. Rev. Baumann pointed to tiie deter
mination of the British which i typified in the English bulldog, the placid calm demeanor of the Scotch collie as exemplary of the Scotch ' people, the ferret-like Dachshund of Germany, the plquacy of the French poodle, the fight of the Irish terrier, all exemplifying particular types of people. "Xow, what is the national dog of America?" nsked Rev. Bauman. "You'll agree with me that his name is 'Perp.' He represents no one particular type or, characteristic of mind. But nevertheless he is exemplary of our type of people. We are a mixed people and our national type is in the making. We Will Make Race "The fact that the offspring of foreign people coming to America change their national characteristics within a period of two generations is remarkable. It is an indication of the advancement of a new race, the American race. That race will be what we of today do to shape its destihy," he said. Rev. Baumann appealed to the successful and wealthy men of America to give to good charities and institutions which stood for the advancement
of our American civilization. - Ki-Ro Activity. Arthur Curme, v chairman of the committee to care for the clean-up work nt Camp Ki-Ro, reported that the Kiwanis club had agreed to aid the Rotarians in the work of cleaning up the boys' camp before the camp sessions begin. It was decided that the Rotary club will do its work on Tuesday, June 27, leaving Richmond at 6 o'clock Tuesday morning from the First Presbyterian church and staying on the job until the preliminary clean-up is finished. The Rotarians will do all the work of cleaning up the camp except the graveling of the road running down to the camp Horn the main road. This work of - M-eling will be taken care f by the nnis club- later. ' --: ' '" ests at the meeting were MnlH. Dill, son of Howard A. Dill, and V. E. Hart of Indianapolis. The one birthtday announcement was for Ed Wilson.

All he received per board meeting was a dollar, and he generally lost half of that beforehand, for dirty cuffs. According to advertisements, the Independent and Middlesex had now branches in Dublin and Glasgow. Its agents were to be found all over the United Kingdom. And results showed that it was getting the bulk of the country's insurances. Still, no other insurance establishment took the trouble to show that a company could not pay what the
Independent and Middlesex under

of doubt was heard against it, and
people came with their money, lured by its promise of a good income for life and a cash sum for their dependents at death.

"I believe that the use of liquor is an evil," Senator Reed said, "and have always considered that the consumption of intoxicants should be reduced to a minimum. I have stood on the principle that if the people of a community want liquor kept out they have ?. right to rule it out by law." He declared his opposition to national prohibition was a constitutional objection. "I believe prohibition was a matter for local communities and states." He said the eighteenth amendment should be respected and obeyed until "three fourths of the states vote to do away with it."
