CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TO BEGIN NEW YEAR
The lj Grande chamber of conmicrce, with a year of sev
eral real accomplishments behind it, will embark upon an
other year with its 'annual banquet Mar. 13 a year which
promises to be one of the most active in the organization's
history.- With' the forces of depression on the retreat and
more 'activity becoming general thiounbout' the distiict,
there also will be increased work to be done by the cham
ber of commerce along many lines.
The annual banquet, marking as it does the beginning
of theyetir with installation of new officers and closing of
the records 'foi' the past 12-month period, 'is ejected to be
one of the best attended in many years and it should be.
The program will be of unusual interest with Chancellor
Wi' J. -Kerr, of the Oregon ; system of higher1 education as
tlie main speaker, and with State Highway Commissioner
E. B. Aldrich, of Pendleton, and Herman Oliver, member of
the state Iward of higher education fromi John Day, in at
tendance and likely to 'be called upon for talks. Also, it
will be an opportunity for the progressive citizens of this
community to "rally around" the chamber of commerce and
lend their -support to the year's tasks. ' ' ' ' ' '
With many large committees already at work on various i
community' lroects, including the U. P. semi-centennial
celebration to be held in July, there are indications that the
various interests of the city are already developing a teamwork-that
will come in good stead' not only for the Celebra
tion; but for other projects that will need community effort
to'bi'irig to a' successful culmination. It would seem; that the
year 193'! might bring many groups in 1m Grande in to a
harmony1 of effort and purpose that has not existed' go 'fully
lor' some years and if that comes true, it would bo. an
advancement in itself not to be minimized.
A united community enri-obtain much of value, where one
in which unity is not so noticeable often find;; itself among
the "also www."" It ' is time for La Grande to give more
through to community spirit of the type that must be had
if this City expects td continue to remain in the progressive
lists, and not slowly lose ground in the race with the future.
