PAUL P. HARRISThe Founder of Rotary(1868-1947)
Paul P. Harris, a lawyer, was the founder of Rotary, the world’s first and most international service club. Rotary is an organization of business and professional leaders united world-wide to provide humanitarian service, promote high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.
Born in Racine, Wisconsin on 19 April 1868, Paul was the second of six children born to George N. Harris and Cornelia Brian Harris. At age 3 he moved to Wallingford, Vermont where he grew up in the care of his paternal grandparents. Married to Jean Thomas Harris (1881-1963), they had no children. He received an LL.B. from the University of Iowa and received an honorary LL.D. from the University of Ver-mont.
In 1896, he went to Chicago to practice law. One evening Paul went with a professional friend to his suburban home. After dinner, as they strolled through the neighborhood, Paul’s friend introduced him to various tradesmen in their stores. This reminded Paul of his New England village and it occurred to him, “Why not have a fellowship composed of businessmen from different occupations, without restrictions of politics or religion?”
On 23 February 1905, Paul Harris formed the first Rotary Club with three other businessmen: Silvester Schiele, a coal merchant, Gustavus Loehr, a mining engineer, and Hiram Shorey, a merchant tailor. Paul Harris named the new club “Rotary” because members met in rotation at their various places of business. When Paul Harris became president of the club in its third year, he was convinced that the Rotary club could be developed into an important service movement and strove to extend Rotary to other cities.
When President emeritus Paul Harris passed away on 27 January 1947, his dream had grown from an informal meet-ing of four men to some 6,000 Rotary clubs developed for the purpose of service and fellowship.

John Germ 2016-17 Rotary International PresidentRotary Club of Chattanooga, TN
John F. Germ, a member of the Rotary Club of Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA, and chair of the International PolioPlus Committee.
For Rotary to thrive, Germ says, members must face current and future challenges and opportunities with "passion, enthusiasm, perseverance, and above all, integrity."
"I envision Rotary boldly and creatively engaging the suc-cess of polio eradication, membership and identity issues, strengthening clubs, work with youth – our future lifeblood, and the creation of critical, strategic partnerships," says Germ. “The 2016-17 Rotary year offers a tremendous oppor-tunity for Rotary International and the Foundation partner-ship unified and thriving, on all levels, via the six areas of focus.”
In 1965, after four years in the U.S. Air Force, Germ, an en-gineer, joined Campbell and Associates Inc., an engineering consulting firm. He now serves as the company's board chair and chief executive officer.
He also serves on the boards of several organizations includ-ing the Public Education Foundation, Orange Grove Center Inc., and the Blood Assurance Inc. He is the founder and treasurer of the Chattanooga State Technical Community College Foundation and is president of the Tennessee Jaycee Foundation.
A Rotary member since 1976, Germ has served Rotary as vice president, director, Foundation trustee and vice chair, chair of Rotary's US$200 Million Challenge, and RI presi-dent's aide. He is a recipient of Rotary's Service Above Self Award and The Rotary Foundation's Citation for Meritorious Service and Distinguished Service Award.

The Object of RotaryThe Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:
1. FIRST. The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service;
2. SECOND. High ethical standards in business and profes-sions, the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupa-tions, and the dignifying of each Rotarian's occupation as an opportunity to serve society;
3. THIRD. The application of the ideal of service in each Rotar-ian's personal, business, and community life;
4. FOURTH. The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.
The Four-Way TestFrom the earliest days of the organization, Rotarians were
concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their profes-sional lives. One of the world’s most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The Four-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as RI President in 1955).
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:1. Is it the TRUTH?2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

Rotary’s Avenues of Service
Throughout Rotary’s rich history, Rotarians have strived to achieve the ideal of Service Above Self. Rotary’s Avenues of Service form the foun-dation on which all club activity is based.
• Through Club Service, we have fun, build last-ing friendships, and make sure that our club functions well.
• Through Vocational Service, we volunteer our professional skills to serve others and promote integrity in everything we do.
• Through Community Service, we address lo-cal needs and work with our community to bring lasting improvements.
• Through International Service, we meet hu-manitarian needs around the globe and promote world understanding and peace.
• Through Youth Service, we work with young people to help them become the next generation of leaders, visionaries, and peacemakers.
