Four Way Test: Michael Flint, in his usual knock-out style, put together a most thought-provoking program, asking members what THEY would do and how THEY would apply the Four Way Test to some tough situations. About the only thing we all agreed upon was that personal safety considerations probably trump the Four Way Test when dealing with an armed bank robber.

There's no fellowship in an empty chair.
Your guests and visiting Rotarians help kindle the flame of fellowship.

Liz de Nesnera, Pompton Lakes NJ.

"Can personal friendships grow into national friendships in such manner as to promote the interests of peace?...
Yes, but it is a dream that we can make come true. Our confidence must never falter. I believe that there is justification for our faith, in the lives of great men such as these, who were faithful to their trusts, who could be friendly, and who were "what they seemed."

Paul Harris The Rotarian 1925
