THE LENOX TIME-TABLE LENOX IOWA IT IS YOUR COMMUNITY CLUB What Will You Do With It? Just now the membership committee of the Greater Community Club of Lenox is trying to collect membership dues for 1931 and at the same time secure new members. In the course of their Journeying from one business place to another they have picked up some queer reasons why certain individuals do not want to be members of the Community Club. Here are Some of Them With the Proper Answers. Read Them Over. Reason 1.

Can't afford it. that case you should be pitied. The dues being only $2.00 a year, your finances must be in bad condition if you can't afford that much of an expenditure to help make your town a better town. Reason 2. I belonged to the club once but I lost interest when the club didn't do anything.

what did you do while in the club? You say you were a member of the club and the club did nothing. You must have been a big help to the club while you were in it. Join now and make up your mind you are going to help DO SOMETHING. Reason 3. The club never did anything for me.

you ever do anything for the club? Did you expect a $2.00 investment would make you rich? It won't do that but if you invest $2 in something to make your town a better place you will have that much better chance of doing more business. Reason 4. The Community Club does nothing but try to raise money. It never does anything for the good of the community. ANSWEfr-When the membership of a club is small all its efforts must go toward maintaining itself.

If the membership could be increased enough to insure £he club an adequate income, more money could be spent in bringing entertainment to town at low cost. Reason 5. I don't live in town. is a reason for joining. The town is here for your convenience.

The club building happens to be in town because that is a central location As a matter of fact it is ho more a "town affair" than the churches or the schools are. Reason 6. The same gang always runs the club and I am getting tired of it. you attend the last meeting for the election of officers? You owe it to your business, your town and yourself to do things from a sense of public spirit Very little can be done by individuals working as such but where a lot of individuals get together mtehtv things can be accomplished. The Greater Communitv Club of Lenox is the organization through which voii can best work.
