Story of Rotary Told at Meeting (Continued from page two) been adopted as the latter part of the official slogan, whicliereads: “Service Above Self—He Profits Most. Who Serves Best.' The "Rotary Code of Ethics’’ wriß adopted by the organization in 1915. lit sets forth the principles and practices which should exist not only between Rotarians but all business and professional men everywhere. To rend this code of ethics is to realize one of the reasons why this relatively new movement has gone forward by leaps and bounds. Men had been waiting for this very thing. It became a "living i force" in the lives of men who had been obsessed with the one idea that business Is simply the means of enabling men to make money, transforming them into men who chose for their inotto, "He profits most who serves best.” instead of the old standard of “He profits most who accumulates most in material things.” To these I men life became an investment, not I measured in terms of dollars, but in terms of the faithful discharge of man’s highest duties to those with whom he has any kind of association. The governor of one of the greatest states in the- United States has said that "Rotary is able to catch the heartbeat —the harmony of life—and put it into action." Members Must Attend.

Members of Rotary clubs must attend the meetings regularly or eliminate themselves from their connection with the club and make room for others who will represent their classications. Practically every club has a clause in Its constitution whereby a .member is automatically dropped from membership if he misses four meetings in succession. Sickness and death are about the only excuses which will be accepted. Absence from the city is becoming less of an excuse than formerly, as the member may attend an outside Rotary club session and receive credit for attendance the same as if he were present at th? home club meeting. Rotary clubs thus hold an enviable record for high percentage of attendance. Clubs with a membership of two and three hundred have as high as 80 per cent, meeting after meeting. The Chicago Headquarters. The headquarters of International Rotary are located in Chicago at No. 910 South Michigan avenue, in a modern suite of offices overlooking Grant park and Lake Michigan. Here is hanidled the voluminous business connect|ed with the operation of over 800 clubs.

C . • — I The Decatur Rotary club was organized on August 7, 1916, with sixteen men who met at the J. T. Merry- : j man’s law office. In June, 1917, tho charter was received. The first coupe of years was spent in organization and in’ creating an interest in the meetings, and in keeping up the attendance. Now it is no trick, to have practically every member of the club present at the most Wonderful meetings ever held. Every meeting is full of “pep” and of interest to everyone. Rev. A. H. Saunders, John Speaker of Huntington, a guest of Fred Ashbaucher and David Studabaker, a guest of A. D. Suttles were also present at the birthday party. I The meeting was one of the most enjoyable of the year and every member was glad to listen to the speakers tell of the birth of Rotary and thankful that Paul Harris of Chicago conceived the idea that evenI tually resulted in forming one of the ' greatest, unselfish organizations In i the world.
