Rotary’s hatrack / Alfred Jones - page 7.

The Rotary Balita no. 759 (December 9, 1954).

When Rotarians get together in the friendly dining hall, There's a wise and kindly custom that's observed by one and all; Foolish hates and petty grudges and all gripes and politics Must be left upon the hatrack with the coats and walking sticks. Thus Rotarians get together in a clean, unhampered way, Free to work and plan together, free to eat and laugh and play; And the wheel is kept a-turning with a strong and hearty stride, For the members check their grudges in the cloak-room just outside. And a funny thing about it, then the pleasant meal is o'er And the members take their top-coats. from the hatrack by the door, All the bitterness and grudges that were left a-waiting, too Seem to somehow sort of vanish, like the early morning dew. – Alfred Jones, THE KERNEL Farmington, Missouri, U.S.A
