•  Be fair to my employer, employees, associates, competitors, customers, the public, and all those with whom I have a business or professional relationship;

•  Recognize the honor and respect due to all occupations which are useful to society;

•  Offer my vocational talents: to provide opportunities for young people, to work for the relief of the special needs of others, and to improve the quality of life in my community;

•  Adhere to honesty in my advertising and in all representations to the public concerning my business or profession;
