Missing Word

Our Missing Word Contest winner for May/June was Michael Link, who received a check for $25. The missing word was “hard,” and the song title was “It’s Been a Hard Day’s Night.” We have hidden another song title with a missing word in this issue. Read your AmeriClub newsletter carefully, looking for any words enclosed in [brackets] like this. Rearrange the words to form the title or extended title of a popular song. One word will be missing. Figure out the missing word, and write the missing word only on the Missing Word Contest form found below. All correct entries received prior to the deadline indicated on the form are entered into the $25 drawing. All entries received throughout the year are entered into a year-end drawing for a grand prize of $100! Good luck!
