ATO flashcardsThe Creed - answer To bind men together in a brotherhood based upon eternal and
immutable principles, with a bond as strong as right itself and as lasting as humanity; to

men the world over should stand together and contend for supremacy of good over evil;
to teach, not politics, but morals; to foster, not partisanship, but the recognition of true
