Reciprocation As you walk along the path of life, You'll find the saying true: "The way you teat the folks you meet Is the way that they'll treat you." If you give a smile you get a smile, A frown will make a frown too, • For what you give to other folks, Is what they give to you. If you want a friend, you must be a friend, Is a safe rule to pursue, To know how you treat other folks, Just watch how they treat you. There were approxi- mately 29 teams compet- ing.
