ROTARY
THE FOUR WAY TEST
of the things we think, say or do:
1. Is it the TRUTH?
2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3. Will it build GOOD WILL and
BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all
concerned?
THE OBJECT OF ROTARY
The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal
of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular,
to encourage and foster:
FIRST: The development of acquaintance as an opportunity
for service;
SECOND: High ethical standards in business and professions;
the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations,
and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an
opportunity to serve society.
THIRD: The application of the ideal of service in each
Rotarian’s personal, business, and community life;
FOURTH: The advancement of international understanding,
goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business
and professional persons united in the ideal of service.
