community. Not only the busi
ness outlook should be treated
but literature giving a truthful
statement of faets should be pre
pared and if accurate would be
bcneticilI. The mailer was per
mitted to stand over in (inter tliat
it might be taken tip by Hie new
administ ration.
The newly elected oll'ieers were
called upon to address the cham
ber. President, Ilunuell thanked
the nienibers for the trust they
had imposed in him and said lie
fully realized the importance of i
the position which the chamber!
should hold in (lie community,
lie hoped the promise of the
bright future of the town would
be fulfilled and would do all in j
his power In bring Ibis abonl. lie
urged the necessity of the mem
bers being present at I lie meet
ings and hoped the new officers
would lia\$ loyal support in llieir
efforts.
Mr. Foster, in moving a vole of
thanks for the outgoing officers,
gave a brief synopsis of the
chamber during the past «few
months. Jlc said il had required
a mighty effort on Itie part of the
retiring officers to bring the
chamber to life last summer.
They had been faithful and even
when only "two or three were
gathered together" they had kept
up the work and had gone into
their own pockets for much of the
expense, lie hoped the new ad
ministration would be able to put
the chamber on a firm financial
basis and could induce the prop
erly owners to take a healthy in
terest in I tie organization. Mr.
James Fish, Mr. I. I). Flynn and
Mr. Ilemple had proved them
selves exceptions in Jhe past.
They lind appeared at every meet
ing and worked hard for I lie wel
fare of Hiy town.

member of the dyke cninmitlcc to
act in the place of Mr. Flynn, who
was confined to his bed through
