Broadcasting the Message
(From the Rotarian.)
Meadows & Co., Inc , of Waco, Tex
as, recently issued the following mes
sage to their associates and employe:
"This company holds membership in
Rotary International, therefore each
of you is expected to carry this ban
ner", representing as you do one unit
or link in our organization. As our
organization can boast of no greater
strength than its weakest link, we
are trmnK you bt'low the Rotary Code
of Ethics. I'lease study the jrreatest
business principles propounded since
thf beginning of the commercial life
cf this country to the end that our
business can boast of a real Rotary
organization." (Here followed th.
code. In this morning cf th? twen'.ie'h
century there is considerable study of
business and professional ethics.
Practically every business and pro-1
fessional association has commit- j
tet s drawing up codes, and al-;
ready the results have been appar i
en: in various fields. But ethical I
cc Its are not confined to individual
or even association aifairs. They are :
merely guides to a:i ot cur social ana
business relations and as such must
tv h'oudcasted to be effective.
Tl:o hermit crab may be sufficient
un: itself but it has little effect on
the world's "roress. Rotary member
ship has b.vi tiecessRrily limited but
tlu r.ota'-y spirit knows neither geo
"ti!hical no. classification liini's.
There are plenty of good Rotanan
whj hnvv never been inside a Rotary
li'.i'e. Tlviv is nl.-o much Rotary 111:1
t.'rlsl that only needs guidance to be
of aid in supplementing the work of
liuiM' who may be meniWrs. That
Rotary may be of the fullest us t
itself and to the world, each Iio
..in'an nv.ist be an operator broad
casting the Rotary message far and
wide. The static of misunderstanding
nay occasionally interrupt the tn l
itg. but if the operators have suprenr.'
faith and serenity of soul the world
:s aiv:i rcaily to "listen in."
A Better Understanding
Many years ago, and yet not so
long ago, either, a great lawyer In
Europe resigned from his profession
and gave up the practice of law be-.-ause
he said that it was impossible
for a man to remain in business and
tave his soul.
In those days, as unfortunately too
often in these days, a man's idea of
business was circumvention. That is
to say, to succeed one had to be a
cleverer cheater than his neighbor.
The"-e were of course exceptions.
We have seen, all of us, many of
the beautiful things made by people
in the past who weap exceptions; but
in business men haa usually lorgot
ten the Golden Rule.
Kiwanis has proven to the world
that a man can succeed in business
and not only save his souL but im
prove the quality of his soul by the
way he succeeded.
The ancient grudge between the
"rube" and the city "slicker" has got
to come to an end. All the wealth is
built on the fruits of the earth, only
great cities can give sufficient mar
kets for the agricultural produce of
;he land. The farmer and the merchant
must work together for the prosper
ity of all. Kiwanis, in its work of
bringing the merchant and the farmer
together, is working to the salvation
of our economic civilization. The
breach between industry and agri
culture has threatened certain trou
ble. It is not impossible for the coun
try to rise up and destroy the city,
for the city is built by men; but the
c.ty cannot destroy the country, which
was made by God.
Announcement
At 7:.10 o'clock the Monroe Kivan;
Club will meet at Weddington with
the men of the community. Supper
will be provided by the club aivi a
general good time will be enjoyed by
all.
Each Friday during August the
week'y meetings will be held at com
munity centers in the County.

THERE are always tome
motorists who think
that the cheaper they buy
a tire the better the bargain.
Then there are the regular
G & J Tire users who have
found that tiro economy
can only be reckoned up
months after the tire is
put on.
If you are looking for the
genuine value the kind
that makes every dollar
