                    TRIBUTE TO THE CLARE ROTARY CLUB

                                 ______


                             HON. DAVE CAMP

                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, February 8, 1995
  Mr. CAMP. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Rotary Club of 
Clare, MI. On February 11, 1995, members and friends will gather to 
celebrate the Clare Rotary's 50th golden anniversary. The Clare Rotary 
Club has enjoyed a long and distinguished history during which they 
helped and improved many lives. They may proudly look back on their 
history and take pride in the many events they have sponsored and the 
assistance they have provided.
  The Rotary Club plays a vital role in the development of our families 
and communities. By selflessly giving of themselves, members have 
demonstrated the rewards we reap when we help others in need. The time 
and effort the members have devoted to improving the community 
illustrates the sensitivity and caring that makes the Rotary Club of 
Clare the wonderful organization it is.
  Their work and accomplishments provide a sterling example of what 
deeds can be performed with dedication and contribution. Everyone 
involved with their efforts lives by the motto, ``He Who Profits Most * 
* * Serves Best'' and more recently, ``Service Before Self.'' These are 
words that, when taken to heart, can help raise people, families, and 
communities to new levels of achievement. The Rotary Club members have 
not only embraced these words but acted to help others and inspired us 
all to help our fellow citizens.
  Mr. Speaker, I know you will join my colleagues and I in commending 
the work of the Rotary members and their 50 years of giving. It is this 
sense of philanthropy, the cornerstone of our Nation, which has made 
this Nation and community such an exceptional place to live. I wish 
them continued success and look forward to another 50 years of service.
