Conserve Opening

Eight Cub Scouts hold cutouts of cars made from poster board and painted in bright colors. As
each boy speaks his line, the car is turned over to show the large letter printed on the back to spell
out the word CONSERVE.
     
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 the brake.
E Eventually, the amount of fuel used grew astonishingly.
R Raising in everyone’s mind a great big doubt.
V Very soon the world’s traffic was put to the test
E Everybody to conserve fuel must now do their best!
