Or are you satisfied to be the kind
that just belong?
There's quite O program scheduled
that we're sure you've heard about,
And we1l appreciate 1t II you'll come
and help us out;
Come out to the meetings-help with
hand and heart
Don't be just q member, but take an
active part.
Think this over. neighbor, you know
right from wrong,
Be an active rnember--instead OF just
belong.
