Harris, an attorney in the City of Chicagdi was tormented with nn unmitigated obsession to achieve something of benefit fo humanity. The lonesomeness of the large j-ity, the dull rou tine of business, and the ear nest desire to enlarge his circle of acquaintances spurred him into decisive action. He invited three friends to his office a coal dealer, a mining operator, and u merchant tailor to whom he deliberately elucidat ed his Idea of forming a club a unique club, that woud be wholly different from any other existing organiaztion; a club that would promulgate the spirit of service, make business men better business men, de velop a wide acquaintanceship, and afford its members an op portunity to serve society. Tills meeting occurred on February 23, 1905, and was the actual arrival of baby Rotary into a world that received her with open arms. Members con sisted of one man from each business or profession, who met in rotation at their places of business to discuss various questions that might arise frofn time to time, and to offer sug gestions concerning the welfare of the community. In order to strengthen fellowship, it was unanimously agreed that each member should call the other by his first name or by his nickname. ' Membership in the Chicago Itotary Club Increased very rapidly and just three years after Its inception, the second Kotary Club was organized in Sun Francisco. The worthy movement spread along the Pa citic Coast, crossed the con tinent, and crept north and south on the Atlantic Coast. At the close of the year 1910, nix- teen clubs hud been organized in the United States. The Initial Convention of Ho tary Clubs was held In Chica go in 1910. The "National As sociation" was formed at this Convention. Hut, two years Inter at the Iutluth Convention in 191:', Itotary evolved from a national organization to un in ternutlonal organization. Kotary has grown more rap Idly since 1812 than during tho first seven yeurs. Today there are more than one-thousand llotary Clubs in the world with approximately eighty thousand members. Although the greater number are in the Cnlted States, the land of Its birth, there are now Itotary Clubs in Canuda, Newfound land, Mexico, Great ISrittiln, Spain, France, Ireland, Cuba, South Americu, South Africa, the Kepubllc of Punumn, Ja pan, China, India, Australia New Zealand, the Philippine Islands and many other coun tries, inquiries have been re ceived from Holland, Norway Den murk, Sweden, the Falkland Islanrs nnd llrltish East Afrlcn which clearly manifests the far reaching fume of Itotary. 1905 -- 1922 111 "He Profits Most Who Serves Best" Rotary Acheivements WHATEVER achievement marks the history of the past seventeen years of Rotary activity is due entirely to, and its ultimate worth is marked by, the manner in which each individual club has lived up to the creed that "HE PROFITS MOST WHO SERVES BEST." The real achievement of Rotary lies in the way this spirit of service is reflected in the commun ity in which a club has been established. Its ac tivities are varied and numerous and are usually confined to those things which no other organi zation is formed to accomplish,, although some of its greatest achievements, and necessarily its least known activities, have been in promoting work for and with other organizations along the lines which these other organizations are given public recognition of accomplishment. Thus dur ing the great war, Rotarians, nominated by In ternational Headquarters or the local club, at the request of government departments or war wrork organizations like the Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., etc., formed the nucleus groups about which were built many most active and efficient local orga nizations. ; j , a j Taking the achievements of all Rotary Clubs in the eastern and western hemispheres, they touch every phase of community life. Governing Bodv of Rotary The International Associa- ion of Kotary Clubs, embrac ing more than one thousand individual Rotary Clubs, func ons through a Ilourd of Hi- rectors which Is elected each ear at the' annual Convention. The Directors of the Associa- ion are a president, three vice- presidents, and a fifth member who is the outgoing president and who remains as one of tho Directors for a year after the expiration of iiis term as presi dent. The heudquarters or central office of the International As sociation is locatedvin Chicago, and departments are organized here for rendering efficient and individual service to all Rotary Clubs. Constant contact is maintained with district gover nors and committees as well as with each individual Kotary Club through its officials. "The Rotariun," a large ma gazine devoted to Rotary, Is published every month. Ver batim proceedings of the Inter national Convention -are print ed each year In book form. The fact that more than one million, :opies of reports, bulletins and , publications are printed annu ally will, suggest a fair idea of the enormous amount of work handled at the central office of the Association. ' ; ' Objects of Rqtary To encourage and' tfj.stcr: High ethical standards in business and professions. ' Tho ideal of SERVICE as the ' basis of all worthy enterprise. The active Interest of every Rotarian in the civic, commer cial, social and moral welfare of the community. , The development ,of a broad acquaintanceship as an oppor tunity for service as well as an aid to success. The Interchange of ideas and of business methods as a means of increasing the efficiency and usefulness of Rotarians. The recognition of the worth Iness Of all legitimate occupa- tions and the dignifying of tho '' occupation of each Rotariun as affording him Wopportunlty to serve society."' 1 ' '-3'1fff Twenty-five thousand boys and girls who had quit school were influenced to return last Sep tember through the activity of 114 Rotary Clubs in the "back-to-school" movement which began with the Blackwell, Oklahoma, Rotary Club three years ago. This is just one of the phases of what is termed Boys Work one of the several special agencies through which practically every club in the international organization has been active. The principal branches of Boys Work, in addi tion to the Boy Scout Movement, are: Providing or organizing the community to provide boys' camps, playgrounds and swimming pools; provid ing surgical treatment for crippled children; giv ing boys vocational counsel; big brothering under-privileged and delinquent boys; establishing dental clinics, etc. Literally millions of dollars have been expend ed in boys work activities initiated or pushed to a successful issue by Rotary Clubs and by Rotary Clubs in association with other organizations. For instance, in Buffalo, New York, the sum of $500,000 was raised for a high school stadium; in Minneapolis a transportation line for crippled children was established so these children could" go to school and the Minnesota legislature ack nowledged Rotary as the author and vigorous proponent of its legislation providing for ade quate schools for such children. These are but two specific instances of thousands of actual un dertakings. Even an approximation of the am ount of money involved would be a wild guess, but the monetary value pales to insignificance in com parison with the community service rendered in the development of these activities. But Boys' Work, as stated before, is only one of the many achievements. Second to none in Rotary activities comes community service. Ro tary Clubs in many cities have been instrumental in arousing a civic pride and consciousness that has resulted in the preparation and adoption of city-beautiful plans; erection of club houses for soldiers and community settlement houses; the providing of night schools for aliens, and their instruction in the fundamentals of Americanism, Better public highways, "get-to-gether" meetings of fanners and business men, community singing, employment of visiting nurses, safety-first cam paigns; in fact, a complete list of the various ac tivities of Rotary Clubs would include nearly every phase of man's endeavor toward making his city, his state, and his country a better place in which to live. t There are innumerable instances where Rotary ' Clubs have been called upon for service in times of great stress. Probably the most striking ex ample was at the time of the influenza epidemic ' in the United States and Canada, when many clubs were suddenly called upon to make surveys . of hospital facilities, organize available local re sources for fighting th epidemic, and securing nurses from less-afflicted communities.
