I believe that truth and justice are fundamental to an enduring social order.
I believe in the sacredness of a promise,that a man's word should be asgood as his bond,that character-not wealth or power or position-is of supremeworth.
I believe that the rendering of useful service is the common duty of mankind and that only in the purifying fire of sacrifice is the dross of selfishnessconsumed and the greatness of the human soul set free.
