X THE ROTARY CLUB A Short Outline of the New; Organization of Sumter Business and Profes sional Men "Will) the organization of the - Sumier Rotary club this tsity l e- j eornes affiliated with an organiza- ! rion that embraces in its member ship more thnn ninety thousand I representative business and profes-! sional men of the world, for Rotary is international in scone and was i never stronger nor growing as rap | idly as at present. The growth of I the organization in seventeen years j is all the more remarkable 1 e ' cause of the fact that r?o organ izers or solicitors have been se?u ; out and not one cent has ever been I paid to organize new clubs. Ro j tary has spread around the work' j from the original club organized in i Chicago seventeen years a^o sole ' ly by reason of the driving force o> 1 the basic principles upon which j the organization was founded. The ; idea of service for the sake of ser ; vice and disinterested friendship ; between busy business and profes sional men. who are. in a great i measure, cut off by their duties and I responsibilities from association j with other men engaged in differ i ent linos of business, has an ap ! peal that the average man is quick I to realize and grasp. The organ i ization has grown and is growing : by one town after another passing j the good thing along to the next I neighbor. For instance: Columbia 1 has had a Rotary for a few years ! only, but the Orangeburg club and I the Sumter club have been organ ; ized by Columbia Rotarians. who ' felt that Orangeburg and Sumter j would be the better for having Ro j tary clubs. '. The membership of Rotary clubs ; is based upon classification?that j is to say. one man for each business ! or profession in a town is eligible i for membership?there may be one banker or trust company execu I tive, one lawyer, one doctor, one j dry goods merchant, one grocer, j and so on. The members must be I the proprietor or executive officer j of the business he represents, it be ing the idea that the roll of the j club shall contain the names of the I ? representative business and profes ' sional men of the community, j When a (dub is organized the mem : bership is limited to a maximum j of twenty-five and thereafter the ; membership is increased by the I election of a maximum of three ? members a month. So much for ; the personnel of the Rotary club. Rotary is not a secret order and i the whole idea of the organization t is summarized in th^ slogan of Fn [ ternational Rotary; "He profits [ most who serves host." and this j means that the service is in the in | terest of improvement and netter j ment in all lines, city, state and na ; tion. I The Rotary idea is fully, but : c oncisely, slated as follows: Objects of The Rotary Club, j To encourage and foster: ! (a) High ethical standards in ; business and professions. I (b) The ideal of Service as the j basis of all worthy enterprise, (e) The active interest of every Rctarian in tin- e?vie. commercial, [social and moral welfare of his community. (d) The development of aj broad acc|iiaintance-!)ij) as an op-j ' port unity for service as wall a? an! aid to success. (e) The interchange of ideas j and business methods as a means of increasing the efficiency and usefulness of Rotariaru. (f) The recog n i t i o n of the worthiness of all legitimate occu pations and the dignity of the occu- j pation of each Rotarian as afford- ? , ing him an opportunity to serve; society. Objects of The International As-1 sociation of Rotary (Tubs. 1. To encourage, promote and supervise the' organization of Ro tary Clubs in all commercial cen ters throughout the world. 2. To co-ordinate, standardize and generally direct the work and activities, other than local activi ties, of all affiliating Rotary clubs. The Rotary Code of Ethics.
