VOL. 27, NO. 4

JULY, 1952

Communillj Service YEs, there is good news about our horrible habit of not voting. More people will vote this year than ever before-more people than ever before are working together on this great national non-partisan REGISTER AND VOTE Campaign coordinated by Th e American H eritage Foundation.

The news will get even better if everyone in your chapter will get on this team. Every member can do something effective and personally satisfying. People, not politicians, will be the decisive factor in this election.

It will be the family vote which will elect our next President.

LISTEN!

READ!

LOOK!

TALK!

ARGUE! THINK! then VOTE!

work, don't r un out and join any service organiza tiOn. Being a joiner is not the way to better one's community. Choo e a few activities fo r which you are well fitted and in which you are interested . You will be warmly received and your talents put to good use.

Sorority women ca n be of service both as individuals and as a group.

As a group, the nation al organiza tion supports the Penl and School and the Pine Mountain School. Chapters have their own local socia l se rv~ce p rojects in addition to contributing to the na tional funds.

As a group, we should p articipa te actively in such groups as the F ederation of Wom en' s Clubs, and the City Panhellenic Association.

By having delega tes to these organiza tion we are indirectly being of service to the crippled children, the blind, the aged, the n eedy and the sick.
