OUR CODE
To, show my faith in the worthiness
of my vocation by industrious applica-
tion to the end that J may merit a reputa-
tion At quality of service.
To seek success and to demand all
fair remuneration or profit as my just
due, but to accept no -profit or 'success
at the price of my self-respect—lost be-
cause of unfair advantage taken or be-
cause of queeionable• acts on any part.
To remember that in building up any
business it is not necessary to tear down
another's; to be loyal to my clients or
customers and true to self.
Whenever a doubt ariscs as to the
right of ethics of my position • or action
towards my fellow men, to resolve such
doubt against myself.
OF ETHICS
To hold friendship as -an end and not
a means; to hold that true friendship
exists not on account of the service per-
' formed by one to another, but that true
friendship demands nothing but accepts
service in the spirit in which it is given.
Always to bear in mind an3 obliga-
tion as a citizen to any nation, my state
and my community, and to give them my
Unswerving loyalty in word, act and deed.
To give them freely of my time, labor and
0
means.
To aid my fellow men by giving my
sympathy to those in distress, my aid to
the weak and my substance to the needy.
To be careful with my criticisms and
liberal. with. my praise; to build up and
not destroy.
IN SINCERE
APPRECIATION
The imp'ressive record of
achievement which we proudly
cite on our twentieth annivers-
ary could not have been amain-
plished withbut the generous
support of the people of Exeter
and. cOmmunity.
Exeter Lions wish to express
their sincere appreciation to
-everyone who through contribu-
tions of time and money have
assisted us in all our projects,
We hope we may count upon
