H. A. Fesperman Tells Part Organization Plays in Community "The Place of a Service Club in a Community" was the subject ol a talk by ROY H. A. Fesperman, pastor of Christ Reformed Church, to bis fellow Lions at their luncheon at the Alexander yesterday noon.

"That a service club has a very definite place in the community is very evident." he said, "for if it didn't it would cease to exist. Civic organizations are not very old, the oldest, Rotary, having been organized in 1910 with kiwanis and Lions following, the latter in 1917." Mr. Fesperman prefaced his remarks by stating that while he was addressing the members of the Lions Club, his remarks would be based on Lionism. but. that they could just as well be applied to any of the other service clubs.

The minister ther proceeded to present in a most forceful manner the place of Lionism in the community. First, Rev. Mr. Fesperman said, means such as the local club has been in providing thousands of quarts of milk to the children of poor and needy families here for -he past 13 years. Secondly, the speaker declared.

I jlouism means I promotion of friendliness among business men of the community. In the third place, it means public pride and an active interest in tlie betterment of the community. And fourthly, Lionism means the opportunity to meet with and learn to know men whom you otherwise might not meet. It means participating in the privelege of an organization to do something for the community that otherwise would not be done. And, in concluding, Rev.

Mr. Fesperman said Lionism promotes tolerance and brotherhood in a day when these are most needed.
