CONSERVE
Simon Kenton Council

Arrangement: Cub Scouts hold cutouts of cars made from poster board, with letters printed on back of each one to spell out the word: C-O-N-S-E-R-V-E.

C - Cars and buses and such were invented by men.
O - Oil fields were discovered also by them.
N - Nobody really worried about the amount of fuel this would take.
S - So on no transportation did they put on the brake.
E - Eventually the amount of fuel used grew astonishingly.
R - Raising on everyone's mind a great big doubt.
V - Very soon the world's traffic was put to the test.
E - Now, to conserve fuel, we must do our best.
