LIONS CLUB ENDORSE
THE 10 POINTS

I'LL ~ IUINIO
There seems to be quite some talk
around town as to what this LIONS
CLUB is and what its real purpose is.
First we will explain to the world just
what and who a REAL LIVE LION is:
WHO is A LION?
He has achieved success who has
lived well, laughed often and loved
much; who has gained the respect of
intelligent men and the love of little
children; who has filled his niche and
accomplished his task; who has left
the world better than he found it,
whether by an improved poppy, a per-
feet poem or a rescued soul; who has
never lacked appreciation of earth's
beauty or failed to express it; who has
always looked for the best in others
and given the best he has; whose life
was an inspiration, whose memory a
benediction-HE is A LION!
THE LIONS CODE OF ETHICS
l. To show my faith in the WORTH
ness of my vocation by Industrious APP
%plication to the end that l may merit
a reputation for quality of service.
2. To seek and to demand all fair
remuneration or profit as my just due,
but to accept no profit or success at
the price of my own self-respect lost
because of unfair advantage taken or
because of questionable acts on my
part.
3. To remember that in building up
my business it is not necessary to tear
down another's; to be loyal to my
clients or customers and true to my
self.
4. Whenever a doubt arises as to
action towards my fellow men, to re-
solve such doubt against myself.
5, To hold friendship as an end and
not a can To hold that true friend
ship exists not on account of the SER
vice performed by one to another, but
that true friendship demands nothing
but accepts service in the spirit in
which it is given.
6. Always bear in mind my obliga-
lions as a citizen to my nation, my
to them my answering loyalty in
word, act and deed. To give them
freely of my time, labor and means.
d To aid my fellow men by giving
my sympathy to those in distress, my
aid to the weak, and my substance tc
the needy.
