Focus on Fraternalism with Barbara A. House Really be a member & join us! I RECENTLY CAME ACROSS the item below. I know you may have read it before, but sometimes it needs to be repeated: Are You Really A Member? Are you really a member, the kind that would be missed? Or, are you just contented that your name is on the list? Do you attend the meetings and mingle with the flock? Or, do you stay at home and criticize and knock? Do you take an active part to help the work along? Or, are you satisfied to only just belong? Do you volunteer on committees to help the job go quick? Or, leave the work for a few and complain about the clique? Please come to our meetings and help with hand and heart. Don't be just a member but take an active part. Before I tell you about everything going on, 1 need to say a giant "Thank You" to the Home Office staff. We get more letters and phone calls than you can imagine, and we welcome them all. I hope you are happy with how quickly we get back to you. We welcome your suggestions. • At this writing, the 34th Annual WPA Golf Tournament & Scholarship Days are right around the corner.
