CHARTER NIGHT FOR
EXETER LIONS
(Continued from page one)
ning of an era of development of our
citizens. We appreciate that clubs
make cities, cities makes states and
states make nations. If we, through
Lionism, can typify our Association’s
motto of L-I-O-N-.S Liberty, Intelli
gence, Oux* Nation’s Safety, we will
have found for ourselves a niche
which none other could ever hope
to occupy.
In accepting this Charter, and in
establishing a completed and recog
nized unit of the International As
sociation of Lions Clubs, our hopes,
our faith, and our petition may best
be set f.orth in the words of that
ancient philosopher Marcus Aurelius
whose advice is yet so modern.
“Forward as occasion offers, never
look around to see whether any
shall note it, be satisfied with suc
cess in even the smallest matter and
think that even such a result is no
trifle.”
As first President of the Exeter
Lions Club, and in behalf of our
membership, I pledge to the citizens
of this community:
That the Lions .Club is founded
to perpetuate in men’s hearts a love
of our native land, and to talk of,
and strive for honesty, reciprocity
and co-operation in business, com
munity betterment and municipal
growth;
That we are organized that there
may flow from good fellowship, mu
tual help and profit, and that our
combined influence may be system
atized, directed and utilized toward
the welfare and upbuilding of our
own community;
That we are free from political
entanglements and sectarianisms;
we are a brotherhood without secrets
definitely do we aim to practice
concretely the Golden Rule;
, That we will always conscient
iously and loyally, set about to make
a better place jn which to live, and
we will willingly and earnestly join
hands with all citizens, or groups of
citizens, in all worthy undertakings;
we are here to serve;
That we cordially invite them,
and at the Same time extend to all
organizations
ahd purpose,
achieving the
Lions stand.
To an honest realization of
such aims the
