Rotary's Power for World Peace

MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT EMERITUS

Paul P. Harris

“To my Rotarian friends in convention assembled in the beautiful and hospitable city of Cleveland, Greetings:

“Twenty never to be forgotten years have given Rotary standing as one of the impressive movements of the age. And yet we are not deeply concerned with what we have left behind us.

 “The question is: ‘What lies out yonder, beyond the distant horizon?’

“Where sight fails faith begins and upon faith empires have been builded.

“I have no fear. He who has thus far sustained our cause will never fail us.

“Success to the Cleveland Convention and health, happiness and prosperity to all assembled there.

“Sincerely yours,

“Paul P. Harris”

[1925 Cleveland Convention]
