You don't see no Chews in de Salvation Army it's too many emotions; de Chews got too much intellects, ve don't vant " "I rule you out of order!" shouted the Chair. "Sit down! Now for your question: The club will welcome the Salvationists as individual members. It does not recognize them as a body."
