The member who wishes to make the motion says: "Madam Chairman, I move
that--"
Another member who agrees to this says: "I second the motion."
If the motion is not seconded at once, the Chairman says: "Will anyone
second the motion?"
After the motion has been moved and seconded the Chairman immediately
states the question as, "It has been moved and seconded that the troop
have a Rally on May 2. Are you ready for the question?" or "The question
is now open for discussion." If no one rises, the Chairman proceeds to
put the question. "All those in favor say aye, opposed no."
Then the Chairman says, "The motion is carried," or "The motion is not
carried," as the case may be.
After the old business has been attended to, the Chairman calls for new
business, saying, "Is there any new business to be discussed?"
The Chairman then dismisses the meeting by calling for a motion for
adjournment.
Adjournment: "Will some one move that the meeting be adjourned?"
If this is moved and seconded it is not necessary to put it to a vote.
The Chairman says: "The meeting is adjourned."
