Cadence, Kaden, Payton and Leah Lovin, Rotary Vice President and chair of the Four-Way Test Essay contest.
The Devils Lake Rotary supports a variety of projects including the 4-way test essay contest that is open to juniors and seniors. The essay contest invites students to submit entries on a subject of interest to the student, specific or general and present the topic of the essay with the Four-Way Test criteria.
This year, three students from Devils Lake Public School were recognized for their essay entries. Cadence Jenssen was awarded first place and a check for $150; Kaden Wass earned second place and a check for $100; and third place was given to Payton Johnston with a check for $50. The awards were presented January 26th at Devils Lake High School.
Judging was based on utilization and application of the principles of the Four Way Test. The Four-Way test is a springboard to voluntary self-improvement. The Four-Way Test of the things we think, say or do is as follows:
- Is it the TRUTH?
- Is it FAIR to all concerned?
- Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
- Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
