"Why did Rotary come into being in the year of our Lord
1905? Social movements, like individuals, are subject to the laws of heredity
and environment. Rotary inherited the growing spirit of
tolerance and the “I WILL” spirit of Chicago, the
incorporeal hereditaments of many generations. No president
or officer of Rotary International, no district governor, no
club president has failed to leave his imprint, and as the
individual member is in turn the product of heredity as well
as environment, it is necessary to look far back into
history to find the Why of the rise of Rotary in Chicago in
1905." Page 254 "This
Rotarian Age" 1935, Paul P. Harris. |
