GREATER NEED If there ever was. a period in the history of Hose burg and Douglas county for the peed of a sound, conserva tive, progressive and constructive Chamber of Commerce, the year of 1925 is jroinjr to -(Jrcds of thousands of dollars are being spent by the big rail -r-nds to bring people west, to get them interested in this vast -r-stern territory where room is available to accommodate '"millions of peoule. And thousands of them will soon direct their attention westward. Whether they locate in California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, -rests with the individual interest taken by each state. . What county they choose " he responsibility of your local .." -Tiur chamber is the hub for all activities that concerns the -traiigerthe new comer looking for a suitahle place to ; cast his, lot, The Chamber of Commerce is the first place that receives, the prospective settler. There is where he gets first-hand information concerning the many advantages to be offered by the city and county at large. If he is a nianuv facturer, or desires to engage in agricultural pursuits, or is looking for an ideal location for a future home, the Chamber ' of Commerce is. his legal advisor. ; Without a substantial and well supported chamber all ' efforts to bring new blood, into, the county is djssipated. i When the matter of leaving the program of well conducted J ..Chamber of Commerce to the public at large is considered ' ; Tthere is sure to be no consideration givenr-rsimply a. hapha- ." -ard method of disposing of a vital acquisition to every pro ! 'jiressive community.. : - At tha beginning of each year there invariably comes a "period of reconstruction work fa your local chamber. A w ' progressive citizens give their time and energy to the welfare ; "of the community. This responsibility falls upon the board ' tot directorsmen who are active during their entire term to .better conditions in a civic way to build a bigger and bet- - "ter city to help and assist in all possible ways each and ev- ery community in the county that their growth may be stantial and reach the highest degree 0 success. And, there is only one way to successfully carry out a constructive pro gram. We must all get behind the chamber, showing a per sonal interest in its program, and subscribing as liberally as possible in a financial way that its work may be carried for ward with greater energy than any previous year. You cannot expect a half-fed chamber to be doing con "'itructive work. H takes a man of more than ordinary abil l '. ity to successfully handle the affairs of the local Chamber of ! Commerce and without his services nothing constructive ' ; can bo accomplished. - The Hoseburg chamber is now planning its work for i ' 1925. It is a big program and far-reaching in its scope. ' ' The board of directors need your co-operation. They ". ', need subscriptions from all who can afford to make a pledge ; ; for the present year's work. They are giving freely of f ; their time and money for the growth of the city and county. Let's get behind them with more" vim and vigor than - ever and put over the financial end of the chamber's pro- gram with a bang. ' . 1 . o ' '. A real asset for a progressive community is a live Cham ' ; bef of Commerce, Roseburg, fortunately, has one of the best : conducted chambers in the state. The year 1925 is going to ; ; be a busy one. Business, generally, is showing improvement and many new people are already headed for the west to 1 ' seek new homes and engage in various enterprises. The lo cal chamber is meeting all requirements and doing a lot of ! constructive work for this old county, .' Cube Ruth, the noted baseball player, is being sued for a gambling debt totaling some seven thousand dollars. And, it has been found, after filing of the suit, that the "Babe" is short on funds, though his last season's work brought to him the tidy sura of $52,000. The old boy is probably as good a spender as he is hitter, if reports of his financial standing are correct, . o . ; As an advertising medium the Koseburg News-Keview has any paper in the stale-beat a mile population of city ami county considered.
