The chamber is to be complimented on the selec tion of officers for the new year. They are all will ing workers for the development of the “Richest Val ley in the World," and if energy and ability will count in the coming year, the valley should go ahead re markably well with such a force behind it. The officers alone can do little without the whole hearted cooperation of the members of the chamber and the people of the valley. The chamber is not a local institution, it is for the entire valley and its en ergies in the past have been directed toward the val ley as a whole. The people should realize this and get behind this organization and give it every sup port. As it now stands, the Illinois Valley Chamber of Commerce is one of the strongest organizations of any small town in the state, and is in a position to do more work than ever for the development of tfois sec tion. This newspaper asks the residents of the valley to give the Chamber of Commerce all the cooperation in their power. If it receives this help, there is great prospects for development this coming year. I s L B. HALL FUNERAL HOME Mrs. L. B. Hall, Manager AMBULANCE SERVICE Phone 388 Cor. 5th & C Sts.
