4 Message from Irene our past Exchange Student..two weeks ago I was off to the Netherlands in order to do a test to get accepted at Varsity and they have just let me know that I passed. I will study Hospitality Management in The Hague. I really cant wait to start. I am so grateful for the experience that I had in South Africa and I wouldn't be the same person that I am now so thank you again for everything that you have done for me while I was there XXX

5 Each of us is a Single Cog in the Wheel Of Rotary. Ed How magically are we placed! Each one is a bump no larger than the other, differing only in intensity of action and purpose. TO be efficient we must be frictionless by keeping our faces smeared with that Rotary Oil, the cheery smile; we must be strong, virile, red-blooded so as not to weaken our infinitesimal support to the great Wheel; we must mesh correctly, co-operate and co-work with all, so as not to clog or stop the grand movements of this machinery of Rotary. Through the magic of Rotary, each Cog is given power, some of ordinary strength, others very powerful, so in reality this colossal Wheel of Rotary is a selfpropelling machine. We have discovered perpetual motion. It turns slowly but surely, like the mills of the gods. A thousand years hence will see this mammoth Wheel still rotating and gaining strength and power and momentum. Each Single Cog carries a different revelation of Rotary. It is interesting to review a few different specimen cogs of which every club is proud and to note how the power and spark in each particular case is derived from different sources. That after all is the magic of Rotary, the apothecaries mystery that welds a club into a unit and pushes it to carry out marvellous work. We will make this a real Bundle of Joy
