Jeff Williams Is Past District Gov-
ernor of the 124th District of Rotary
International—and in 1939-40 was a
member of the Constitution and By-

tional. For two years he was chair-

rector of Rotary International. Mr.
Williams is now a member of the

his time, effort and ability to the
stimulation of War Bond Purchase,
Red Cross Drives, U.S.O. activities,
and to the very important work of
“Civilian Morale.”
Over the past five years, he has
traveled approximately 150,000 miles

all over America and in some of the
over-seas countries, and is consid-

philosophy and brings a message that
will inspire, entertain and encourage
every human that hears him. He has
a broad experience and wholsome
outlook—is in very great demand
from coast to coast by groups of
every kind—and says that he expects
to do his part,and more, to sustain
the spirit that made America the
greatest nation under the sun.

ARE YOU A TRUE FRIEND?
Just what is a friend?
That, perhaps is a good, sensible
question to consider—not just lightly
on the surface, but really give it a
work-out through and through. This
business of having a friend is certain-
ly a rather important factor in life.
To have at least one honest-to-good-
oess true friend whom you could
pick out from all others as the one on
whom you could depend and trust
■o natter what might happen should
fct every person's wish.
Of course, you will choose your
own characteristics or qualities that
you would want this friend to pos-
sess—lines and lines of good quali-
ties. Look them over carefully. Take
tSch quality separately and concen-
trate upon it, keeping in mind that
you are about to select a friend con-
taining some or most of these quali-
ties.
Don’t let it be a one-sided affaii
either. Again take a look at those
qualities and see if you possess them.
After all, what good would your
JMendship be if only one of you were
ipMBng to co-operate. Just remem-
: >' bet that to have a good friend, you’ve
got to be a good friend.—Ex
