hatever be the occupation
You engage in for your pay,
Come join us in the celebration
Of this special holiday;
For labor made its contribution
To improve our status quo,
And brought about the evolution
Of the good life we all know
With work and faith our land progressed,
As lessons in your Church convey;
So give yourself a well-earned rest.
By celebrating Labor Day!

Square dancing is one of
the oldest forms of folk
dance in America. In our
country early settlers gath-
ered for a Bam Dance and
danced to the tune of the
fiddler-who was also call-

his fiddle and tapped his
feet. As part of our heritage
Square Dancing was good,
clean recreation and fel-
lowship
Today, square dancing is
making an explosive come-
back. It has moved from
the bam to the ballroom
Dancers of all ages are
learning the art of this
exciting form of dancing.
Not only is it fun but it is a
healthy way to exercise,
and is an experience which
can be shared by the entire
family.
Club members visit each
others dances and square
dancers know they can al-
ways find friends when
they travel.
