21 February 1935 newspaper story on the 30th anniversary of Rotary	Life Magazine photo of Harris giving autographs at the 1937 Nice, France convention of Rotary	When PH was in Brazil in April 1936, he was hosted by fellow Rotarian Jose Fernandes in Petropolis, a town close to Rio de Janeiro where he visited the President of Brazil, Getulio Vargas. Jose Fernandes was by then President Elect of RC Rio de Janeiro. In 1937 PH sent Jose Fernandes his book Peregrinations III with a small message. I've just found this book in the library of the Brazilian Regional Magazine, Brasil Rotário. Enclosed is Paul's message to Jose Fernandes, with his signature. As you can see, it says, "To my friend Jose M. Fernandes Caixa Postal 983 (or maybe 883; Caixa Postal means PO Box) Rio de Janeiro With kind regards and best wishes Sincerely Paul Harris Dec 30 - 37" Best regards, RGHF member Eduardo Werneck
