JANUARY 19 NOW FOR A LIVE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE The Chamber of Commerce Meeting Friday night gave evidence of some existing tife in the organization and that spark should be nourished and fanned until the entire city and countryside is alive to the possibilities of this very nec essary body, Albany is woefully lagging in the matter of its Cham ber of Commerce. It is true that an efficient secretary is employed who looks after what details of business that vol untarily come in. But as far as a real, live "go-get'em" or ganization is concerned, we have to admit that we are hope lessly outclassed by Salem, Eugene and some other Oregon cities. There is much important work to be done. There is a world of immigration coming west. Albany should be up on her toes and looking for the newcomer who wants to set tle on our small tracts, to work in our mills and factories or engage in business enterprises. Our cannery and small fruit industry offers opportun ity tor thousands ot new people., with this nucleus we should build solidly around it. In this week's issue of the Saturday Evening Post you will see three advertisements occupying nearly two full pages advertising the Wittenburg KingCo., of Salem and Portland; the Phez jams and jellies made at Salem, andPaul's Jams, made by the Puyallup & Sumner Growers Association of Puyalluo. Wash., and Al bany, Ore. In this month's Vanity Fair is an advertisement for Phez "Appleju." A score of other Oregon industries, such as the Oregon City Woolen Mills and spending hund reds of thousands of dollars in national advertising, and this not only results in immediate profit to the manufacturers, but it directs attention to the state at large. Mr. W. R. Scott's suggestion for an Albany calendar for 1921 Is a sensible suggestion. Thousands of dollars are spent annually for expensive calendars which do not do the merchants a corresponding amount of good. The right kind of calendar would hot only be an expense saver for the business men, but it would serve as an educational subject for the residents of the city. There is a lot about our home town that most people do not know. Let them keep remind ed on some phase of it every month. . ' . . The Democrat under the present management is just a vear old. We are not ashamed of the record we have made this year and we are proud to know that so 'many of our fel-j low-townsmen share our pride with us. The Democrat wasj established in 1865 and has had an honorable record for; more than half a century. . " . o . ; j Are you ready for the Automobile Show?

The public is ready for our message: Let's shoot. It is not necessary to employ a high priced secretary or manager, although a good, live man to stir things up would be an asset. But much good can be done through publicity and there are several good agences handling national adver tising from their offices in Portland who could conduct our " campaign with success. . . - But outside of the matter of letting the world know about this wonderful country there are scores of things which the Chamber of Commerce can accomplish. More united effort; a more willing attitude on the part of the busi ness and professional men and farmers and closer coopera tion are necessary. Let's all knuckle down, get our toes on the scratch at the annual meeting and banquet which will be held on February sixth, and get away on a flying start and make 1920 the best year Albany has ever enjoyed. nn increasea population, more mills and factories, more IT S TO YOUR INTEREST To Bring Your CREAM, POULTRY and EGGS to HAZEL WOOD CREAM STATION H.
