Choose the right

The letters CTR, a reference to this phrase, are incorporated into a shield logo designed by Joel Holbrook Izatt[1] Margery Cannon and Lurene Wilkinson[2] who were Primary General Board members in the 1960s.

Since then, both the phrase and symbol have been used in religious educational materials for LDS youth of Primary age.

[3] The symbol is also used in LDS culture by members of all ages, both as a reminder of the motto, as well as an indicator of religious affiliation.

[citation needed] A ring with the letters "CTR" on is often worn by members of the LDS Church as a reminder of the "Choose the Right" motto, and as a symbol of their religious affiliation.

[3] In connection with the children's Sunday School program, each LDS child in this age group is given an adjustable ring with a green escutcheon bearing the letters "CTR" in silver.
