Professor Scott showed the relationship between people today and those in the time of the Romans who worked as slaves. "Today", he stated, "we are fortun- ate to live the way we are instead of being lashed and slugged to work". "Today we have three kinds of citizens, (1) Those who turn ort and vote every time there is an elec- tion. ,(2) Those who don't vote but are always finding fault with the government and local twp. and town councils. (3) Those who won't voice their opinion one way or another in case they make bad friends," stated Professor Scott. The speaker stress- ed that we are not being good citi- zens and not living up to our respon- sibilities if we don't get out and vote. "You are the ones to be good cit- izens and the time to prepare for that is right now when you are young", he stressed. In concluding, "Citizenship requires that you keep alert and be ready at all times", were the words of Professor Scott, Ann Haugh, on behalf of the club thanked the speaker for his impres- sive talk.
