Sound system 
 
Will members who are meeting a visiting speaker explain to them that they must speak into the end of the microphone as all singers and entertainers do with that type of Mic. (watch the TV). Would members who go up to speak please take the Mic out of the holder and hold it up to their chin because it will not work if it is left some distance from the speaker in the holder when the head is turned away. It was also unfortunate last week that somehow the volume had been turned down and nobody had checked.

He went home that night and his wife asked if he talked to the club? he said yes? she asked what his subject was? He thought he had better not tell her what he talked about so he said that he spoke on sailing. Next day his wife met one of the Rotary men at the store and he told her what a wonderful talk her husband had made, and told her that he sure was an expert on the subject.
 
I was trying to pay my way through college, so I started a laundry service. One day, a man came in and picked up his stuff and asked, “What is the usual tip around here?” I answered, “I don’t know, but looking at you, I doubt I’ll get a quarter!” He took out a 10 dollar bill and said, “Keep the whole thing.
