Announcement hu lust been made by County Judge Paul
Jones that the State Game Commission has WJ? Pur'
tha.se a site at KeUy Prairie for fish impoundment This res
ervoir will be considerably larger than Bull Prairie as we
urrstand it, and bids to attract hundreds more to the area
lor remation. The Chamber has worked for several years to
wards such reservoir development, and is continuing.
The Chamber has been a leader in urging the Willow
Cr dam project, which is no-- authorized, and will active
ly continue to kp the proposal alive while the federal ap
propriation is held up during the pursuit of the Vietnam War
It is getting interested in the proposal for establishing
a nuclear energy plant in north Morrow county and investi
gating the possibility of irrigation from the water discharged
b If isupponng the Port Commission in projects it has in
mind, and it is concerned about developments of both public
and private irrigation projects in the county.
Again, these are just a few of the many developments
underway that occupy the attention of the Chamber of Com
merce. It is also trying to find ways to stimulate business
in Hppner and throughout the county.
Occasionally one hears someone say that "the Chamber
of Commerce never does anything." That person isn't very
well versed on its activities. ,
A check of the secretary's minutes of the years meetings
would bring out a good many specific items resolutions urg
ing various actions from Congress or the legislature, financial
help on certain projects, meetings held to promote some spe
cific enterprise of public interest, and others.
The Chamber works hand in glove with city, county and
other agencies as they press towards progress. Indeed, some
times it is difficult to tell whether a certain person is work
ing in his official capacity or his Chamber capacity since he
may serve both. Included in the membership of the organi
zation are many of the leading citizens of the county, and
this year it is hopd to include even more.
There is a place in the Chamber for anyone with interest
in business, agricultural commercial, industrial or communi
y dXloprnent here. The organization seeks to promote al
these things and in doing so reaches out to embrace other
phases that contribute to them, such as support of youth ac
tiVUif the county achieves significantly In this year of 1968
.r-A if some of the major projects in view reach fulfillment,
or cToLr to VealizitioA, one can be sure that the Cham
ber has helped.

sactions at the first of the year.
Prior to the repeal, stamps indi
cating the value of the property
were affixed to the deed. This
information was used by asses
