These noon luncheons were formerly conducted with great success and can be so again if business men will take that hour off in the interest of public welfare. Last year the community was donated a great vol ume of business but 1942 does not offer such a gift, without at least some public enterprise. The town is on its way forward and many things can be added to its growth and business development which in to tal sum will continue its prosperity. The efforts of the Commercial Club and its new officers should be supported by 100 or more business men who will be directly interested. This work should not be left to a few leaders. No citizen should lay off and trust to a few to do the work. This is no place for drones. No town ever just grows. It grows by the force and industry, and public enthusiasm of its citizens. Whatever its re sources and possibilities, they will perish without conceited work through such an organization as our Commercial Club. These few remarks are directed at you and you, who have a coffee shop or camp cabin, and those who have the biggest businesses in town. Whatever is done to advance the growth is directly or indirect ly for your good and it is your manly or womanly part to help boost things along. Any improvements in buildings, roadways, agriculture and industry pours water on your wheels. Again we must emphasize that there is a good 1942 ahead of us. It is up to each and all to make the best of the new opportunities in sight, and also keep an eye on the future. Whatever we do this year will contribute to that of next year, and the years to come. .2Mobt"5 251285 , AN o V 6 AAO FOR VICTORY .One to Fit Every Farm, Every Crop, Every Purpose! ance as a result of the long-lasting construction of John Deere Tractors.
