- Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The Four-Way Test has been translated into
more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways. It asks the following four questions:
- “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?
|
|
21
|
- The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as

- Rotary’s early emblem was a simple wagon wheel in motion with dust. It was designed in 1905 by Montague M.
Bear, an engraver who was a member of the Rotary Club of Chicago.
- In 1922, the organization created the present emblem, a gearwheel with
24 cogs and six spokes. A keyway
was added to signify the usefulness of the gearwheel.
- In 1922, royal blue and gold were chosen as the official Rotary colors,
and the flag of Rotary was designated as a white field with the emblem
emblazoned in its center.
- The emblem is now worn as a lapel pin to identify Rotarians around the
world.
