The trouble with Athens V.i the
past was lack of organized effort
In working for the upbuilding of
the city. A few leading men would
suggest something their city nee i
ed and after expending consider
able talk the project was allowed
to drop, and nothing done. It
seemed impossible to get our peo
ple together and concentrate on an
effort. They all realized that Ath
ens had certain needs but what
was everybody’s business was no
one’s business and so nothing was
done.

The Athens Chamber of Com- : organization was wounded in the
meree has organized a general ex- j shoulder,
nanslon campaign headquarters.
They aro in charge of trained men
who are prosecuting their work
with order and system. Their
motto is. ’The World Judges n
city by the Spirit of Its People.;’
Resigning Wednesday, a campaign
will be waged for Increasing the
membership of the Chamber of
Commerce; so aa to' enlist onr
•very citizen or>s many as possi
ble into the work. This body has
numbered about ISO members of
business men and a few enterpris
ing citlzenal That membership
must be Increased to at Jeast six
hundred add-It should be a thous
and, at least. To this organisation
thef city of Athens only contributes
about 1? cents per capita a year.
To show our lack of pdbllc spirited
liberality to tbe town of Greens
boro, gives about 80 cents per
capita. It takes money to finance
the development of a town aa any
line of buainess. But by all unit
ing the work we can win out
and no one will perceptible feel the
outlay.
What it Is proposed to do Is first
brig our people together and per
fect a- thorough organization, and
then go W work'ln unity and ac
cord. with a knowledge and under
standing of what our cltjr most
needs, for its upbuilding.
The first step taken by the gon-
tlemen engineering this movement
Is to get the views or onr people
as to what they think the city most
needs for its upbuilding and an
Increase of business and prosporl-'
ty. When replies to the questions
kiren out have, been received,, they
will be carefully considered. Ait
expert will then make a careful
and systematic survey of Athens
■nd report as to whst.be thinks of
tho chances for the success of cer
tain enterprises. Exact facts will
bn secured and’given to tho world,
and Bom a source that carries
rlth It 'confidence and trust.
8o Instead Qf unorganized effort
and talk, men who know the fields
(or dnvestment and Just where to
locate fields .for Investment will
take charge of the business. There
Is no need of telling these gentle
men what It do,'for It Is their bus!
ness to know. After the survey of
Athens, it will be known Just what
particular line of Industry wo most
need and can^sustaln.
TO ENROLL
MEMBER8
But the first and most vitally Im
portant wortc I* to enroll on the
membership of our Chamber or
our Comber of Commerce overy
person' in Athens who loves his
city and wants to see It gr«w and
prosper. And as Mr. Jarrell sals,
It is not "The” Chamber of Com
merce, but a Chamber of Com
merce, and. It is desired that Its
membership be spread over the
whole -of Athens and embrace
every class and calling—the bank
er, the merchant, the professional,
the mecnanlc, the laborer and the
plain cltisen. Then when the body
meets aa It will be constituted of
representatives of the whole peo
ple and not of one or mere classes.
Every person can be of service in
working for Athens, and combin
ing all our people and Interests
success is assured. Many good
citizens may not be ready to Join
the Chamber of Commerce .be
cause they do- not understand its
functions In a community or *>**
don’t realise their own obligations
of cltisenshlp. But when the ob
ject of this organisation is explain
id to them and they understand
the great work being undertaken
for their clt/. I bellevo that every
mhn with civic pride will not hesi
tate to enroll his name and con
tribute his sharq towards the work
of pressing bin city to the front.
When the campaign now on is
over, an organliation igecUlUt
