CHARGE TO THE PRESIDENT
        When  one  becomes  President  of  the  Plymouth  Rotary  Club  he  should  not
        receive  his  elevation  to  its  highest  office  by  perfunctorily  agreeing  to
        'perform  the  duties  of  the  presidency.   He  must  accept  his  new
        responsibility  as  one  of trust.  Upon  your  judgment  and  knowledge  of men
        will  rest  the  success  or  failure  of this  Club  as  an  instrument  of service  to
        t his community,  which is the basic function of Rotary.
        We  trust  that  throughout  your  rotary  life  you  have  acquired  sufficient
        knowledge  of  Rot ary  and  its  usages  to  place  you  in  a  position  to  impart
        this  knowledge  to  your  fellow  members.   This  your  Club  believes  by
        offering  you  the  opportunity  to  serve  as  its  president  and  leader.  In  the
        administration of this  Club's  affairs you  should exhibit the  best in  business
        tact  and energy; possessed with  dignity of carriage and evenness  of mind;
        promptness  in  business  procedures;  firmness  in  decision.   Courtesy  of
        manner and kindness of heart should characterize your every act.
        Rotary  in  this  community  will  be  largely  judged  by  your  qualit y  of
         leadership and  the  efforts of the  men  whom  you now have the opportunity
         to inspire.  During  your  year  as President  of Plymouth Rotary,  only matters
         of  t he  utmost  importance  should  be  allowed  to  detract  from  your
         opportunity for service as its President.
         I now present  and  entrust you with  the  gavel of this Club  as  the  symbol  of
         its highest authority.
