By Beck im CHRISTMAS MORNING >» oe wa ON WATCH Perhaps those people who bougit their Christmas turkey at thirty cents a pound will enjoy it the more when they know that their neighbor paid £ity cents a pound for a similar bird, It is not any comfort to the artistic a om ay tions of another man's wife and be- ing with her too much to suit the complainant.

"~ N earth peace, good will toward O-~ will be a fact when the men who carry on the business of the world accept the responsibility which mod- ern civilization squarely puts upon them. For the contacts of business are beyond calculation; they touch the ambitious and the humble, the dissatisfied and the satis- fied." Business contact and influence are the very warp and woof of organized society. For all civilized men buy and sell something in order to live and to im- prove. One of those bloodless revolutions, which steal over us unaware, has made the work and livelihood of civilization a sci- ence and a profession. Once we talked of loyalty to religion, to party principles; now we must have loyalty to business ideals. It has taken twenty centuries since Bethlehem, but at last there is an ethical concept of buying and selling and dealing. At is now as useless to deny that business . is a social profession, as it was really use- less, some years back, to deny that the worker should have a voice in determining his wages, The hour has struck when the conduct of business is no longer the individual af. fair of the business man for the better, or worse, of his personal repute or his private fortune. Rotary International calls upon the men of the great social profession of trade and commerce around the globe to exercise their vast contact power for peace and good will by harmonizing with it, by living it, to the glorious end that there shall be among all men an interna- tional conscience. As a harbinger of business ethics Rot- ary sends its message around the world that true service means personal responsi. bility for 'peace on earth and good will to- / ward men."
