To show my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by industrious application to the end that I may merit a reputation for 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 own self respect lost
because of unfair advantage taken or because of questionable acts on my part.
To remember that in building up my
business it is not necessary to tear down another's; to be loyal to my clients
or customers and true to myself.
Whenever a doubt arises as to the right
or ethics of my position or action towards my fellow men, to resolve such doubt
against myself.
To hold friendship as an end and not a
means. To hold that true friendship exists not on account of the service performed
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 my obligations
as a citizen to my nation, my state and my community,
and to give to them my unswerving loyalty in word, act and deed. To give them freely of my time, labor and
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.
