Mr.. EDITOR: /

strong, Let me stop Just h re,
Mr., Editor, to congratulate you
upon the pronOunc q ami mani
fest improvement and constant
improving of the Gaz tie. The
last issue was the best, | think,
of the series.
There are many matters con-
nected with the welfare OF a
town that seem peculiarly the
province of a Business Mems
Association. Enterprises and
enterprise should be discussed.
A clash or exchange of opinion
is better in gathering of bust
ness men than a whispering on
the street. The Association
should aid the " Town Hall " in
all of its work, by discussion,
suggestion and advice. Santa
ton, water, markets, police, Or
nainentation, shade, sewerage,
etc, all these matters might
we'll be discussed.
Again, factories of many
kinds might be started by con-
ference and discussion. BY the
way, Mr.. Editor, where is the
Canning factory located? What
We need is to keep and invest
the surplus money right here in
business enterprises. Look al
the last report Of the bank
the deposits, / am Informed
that some of this money il
