it’s known to all to be the law,
That interest should you wish to draw,
On something that you have within,
You first must put that something in.
For you, your business does not pay,
And you lament from day to day,
You have not to your business given,
That from which pay is deriven.
Your goose it lays a golden egg,
Marks up your interest just a peg,
But feed, you must, your goose of old,
If you would get your egg of gold.
If interest in your church has died,
It doesn’t revive although you’ve tried,
Just ask yourself and look within
To see what you are putting in.
If your home is not going right,
You stay out late most every night,
You have no longer interest there,
You’ve no investment worth the care.
If you have brothers in your lodge,
You now quite often try to dodge,
Then your interest’s growing slim,
You must put in if you would win.
All through life as taught by Him,
If you take out you must put in,
It’s things you do for all about,
You take your biggest interest out.
With motor cars it’s just the same,
What’s been put in comes out again.
Now you can make your own deduction,
From the Studebakers’ big production
— The Car with Character.
