TRANSCRIPT OF THE SPEECH IN THE VIDEO:
Friends of the air. It is a real privilege to address you. We are gathered together in Boston from almost every civilized country of the world. We come from the British Isles, China, Japan, European and South American countries, Australia, New Zealand, and many others.
More than forty nations are represented and some of the delegates will have circled the globe on the return to their native countries. It is a most inspiring occasion.
In the present to this gathering, my mind very naturally reverts to that first meeting which was held in Chicago 28 years ago. Four of us were in attendance: Mighty Oaks, from Little Acorns Grow.
Perhaps there are 2 features of Rotary which more than any others challenge the attention of those who are not Rotarians.
One is what we call our classification plan by virtual bridge. Membership in Rotary is limited to one representative of each line of trade or profession.
The other is the provision that neither riches, political nor religious standings shall constitute barriers to membership.
To these two provisions, Rotary is thrown open to representatives of all walks of life.
To representatives of all countries and all forms of religion.
Would this mean to open the door to all manner of discord? One might think so. In fact many have said that human ingenuity could hardly divide a plan of organization more fraught with peril. Here in lies the genious and the Rotary, the glory of Rotary.]
The formula of procedure is indeed simple. Why Rotarians differ in many respects – in two respects they are in perfect accord.
First they believe that all nations are respectable and desire to be honorable in their dealings with other nations. That it is the privilege of all men to worship God according to the dictates of their own conscience. In other words Rotary stands for TOLERANCE.
Second they believe, that all honorable vocations are entitled to recognition if they are used in the service of society.
With these signs of agreement firmly established, disagreement is almost unknown. read more ...

The Four-Way Test
of the things we think, say or do
The Four-Way Test is a self guidance tool more than a tool to apply to others. We can only control and manage our own behavior for every desirable outcome that we may seek.

The Four-Way Test
of the things we think, say or do
- Is it the TRUTH?
- Is it FAIR to all concerned?
- Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
- Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

Avenues of Service:
We channel our commitment to service at home and abroad through five Avenues of Service, which are the foundation of club activity.
- Club Service focuses on making clubs strong. A thriving club is anchored by strong relationships and an active membership development plan.
- Vocational Service calls on every Rotarian to work with integrity and contribute their expertise to the problems and needs of society.
- Community Service encourages every Rotarian to find ways to improve the quality of life for people in their communities and to serve the public interest.
- International Service exemplifies our global reach in promoting peace and understanding. We support this service avenue by sponsoring or volunteering on international projects, seeking partners abroad, and more.
- Youth Service recognizes the importance of empowering youth and young professionals through leadership development programs such as Rotaract, Interact, Rotary Youth Leadership Awards(RYLA) and Rotary Youth Exchange.
