CLUB SONG
Sung to tune of - "America The Beautiful."
Oh beautiful for Gardens Green For flowers bright and fair For faithful hearts and willing hands To deck the earth with care.
Oh Garden Club Oh Garden Club Let not your talents rust Put forth your efforts everyone We'll grow because we must.
Oh beautiful for Civic Pride Our cause must never wane We'll plant each barren spot to hide Until no blights remain.
Oh Garden Club Oh Garden Club With flowers of every hue We'll plant each seed with loving care And make our dreams come true.
Mary Drew Dalton.
