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.

Paul Katlin, a member of the Hebrew 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 **•» American Ctty Barash will Intend the calling and holdliig series of round table granv ngs for the purpose of af- g a general discussion of Community needs. In this series of meetilms there win he 1 wide discussion of matters that pertain to the welfare and prosperity of the community. At th ? °{ each meeting every member will is handed a blank bearing two questions^ do yo „ consider the thing of first importanccby the organisation for the benefit of the city as a whole? . .. i What do you wish the or ganisation to do to help you in' your own Une of work? These answers are transferred . to a cand Index *f nested, and to one giving the St the anggeattans. Tbla «nf' tho most eon. be aided in putting the right man In tbe right place, as any private business concern woulo endeavor to do for its owh advancement, and not be handicapped .either by poliii cal considerations or by the re strictions entailed in the present pihn requiring examination by the civil service commission which does dot even give civil service Status.
