ATTENDANCE DOES INSPIRE ALL TO DO THEIR BEST

If you cannot at the meeting Speak with grace to move the heart,

You can come with cheer and greeting Helping in the social part.

Though you're timid in the forum, And command no powers rare,

You can help to make a quorum, You can occupy a chair.

GREETINGS

In presenting this program to our patrons, it is with your co-operation that I hope to make it a success. If it is impossible for you to take your part or find a substitute, please notify me at the earliest opportunity.

Fraternally yours, Daisy Ward, Lecturer
