Now that the new board Is organized

Itlzcu to lend his assistance In furthering-
the Interests of this community.
A commercial club is a vehlclo for the
advancement of the city and country
just to the extent that the citizens de
sire it to be. No one man nor nine
men can absolutely bring about re
sults unless they liavo the united sup
port of the people, And this Is some
thing lo he remembered. Wo have an

pleo to respond not only with finance
but with their presence and counsel
