i Whv should Meill'oi'd have a Cham
ber of Commerce I
Every eitv needs an oruanizalion
of the character of a Chamber of
Commerce.. K.verv eitv needs an or
Kani.ation which will hrimr the men
and women together to do things that
the eitv needs to have done.
This yelling loircther , slimuhiles
discussion of the problems oL the
city, it discovers thimrs to do that
nobody had ever thomiht of: it puts
n united force behind the individual
who would like to have things done,
hut knows he cannot do them alone.
Discussion of u eilv's needs leads
naturally to the findiiiL' of ways and
means of doine thins.
This is what is meant bv the crea
tion of the spirit of enterprise in a
community. A city which has once
aeouired this spirit will not permit
it to die out.
A wfll-inanned. well-planned Cham
ber of Commerce provides that eitv
with an organization and the ma
chinery to make use of the best
thotieht and enenrv of the citizens.
A disorganized factory is a mennoe

ity is a liability to the nation. .

city and its people, 'fhe storekeeper,

cities which offer arcater advantages.
A well organized Chamber of Com
merce is such assurance.
'there is a verv wealthy man in
Des Moines who for a lomr time could
see no need for a Chamber of Com
merce. After lunch effort he was in
duced lo become a member. For the
past five years he has subscribed
$ 1(100 annually lo ils maintenance, his

2 MILL TAX LEVY
TO AID SCHOOLS
Whereas more than one-third of all
the school districts of Jackson county
have made provision for but $ii20 for
the purpose of maintaining their
schools for an entire- year, and be
cause of excessively low valuation of
the prc-perty in their dislriets will not
lie able to greatly increase their spec
ial tax levies for the coming year for
school purposes; and
Whereas, a two mill tax upon the
taxable property of Jackson county
will briiiK an additional :iaO or more
lo each district for each elementary
teacher employed, which sum will en
able those districts to secure teachers
and tc give the children In those dis
tricts an elementary education; and
Whereas, 1S,27!I school districts of
this stato and nation were on the
lath day of February, 1!i2U closed be
cause of !'jsuff!cient funds to pay
!euc!ic'.':i even a living wage, and thus
teachers vho have made preparation
lor the work are hcing forced into
oilier occupations for which they have

Whereas, our entire educational
system has reached a most critical
condition and Immediate financial aid
must be secured In order to maintain
Ihoso ideals so essential to the pre
servation of our union.
Therefore he it resolved, that this
bedy go on record as favoring the
passage of the proposed two mill tax
measure for common school purposes,
and that we do pledge ourselves to
support Ihe same and to induce oth
ers to support the same by yoling Hit
yes for the measure on electica day.
