The immense tree at Deering Point
next to the school house which has been
removed by Park Commissioners Smith
was believed to be the largest tree in
Cumberland county. The work OF remov-
al was commenced August 20, and it took
four men six days to accomplish the un-
dertaking. The tree measured 26 feet
around, four feet from the ground. The
actual cut OF solid wood was over nine
feet through, BY counting the rings of
yearly growth it was found that the tree
must have been 10 years old. The top OF
the highest limb was 1876 feet from the
ground and the climbers were 100 feet
from the ground in making fast the ropes
by which to lower the limbs 1t was es-
timated that there were from 12 to Is
cords of wood In the limbs of the tree
alone. When the tree was on the ground
the trnnk was cut into three pieces and 1t
took eight horses to remove each piece to
the city dump

STATE ASSOCIATION
OF Business Clubs Favored BY San
Antonio

The following reply has been receiv-
ed from the secretary OF the Business
Mems club of San Antonio to the circu-
lar letter sent out by the Ell Paso
chamber of commerce. suggesting the
organization of a state association of
city commercial organizations:
San Antonio. September %.
Mr.. 5. J. Prudential. President of
Chamber of Commerce. Ell Paso.
Texas.
Dear oir:-President Aubrey is alb
sent in the east and not knowing just
when he will return. | take the liber-
ty of answering yours of the Goth to
him in regard to federating the bust
ness organizations of the state.
answer the letter in question without
any hesitancy as | am fully familiar
with President Aubrey's views on that
subject.
Last November we federated the
business organizations in south and
west Texas. and encouraged the organ
ization of Commercial clubs in every
town of any prominence. Mr.. Aub-
rey was elected president of the feder-
alton. and although we endeavored to
convince them of the necessity of be-
ing active in all matters relating to
commercial interests in section named
with a few exceptions that degree of
interest was not manifested necessary
to make the federated clubs the power
they would have been If more were
displayed
He canvassed the situation to de-
termine the cause and decided that
where an organization was not strong
enough to pay a secretary literally
for continuous services. the work de-
volving on a few of the most jealous,
interest rapidly declined, small details
were ignored, meetings were rare and
they were never heard from unless
something of moment turned up in
which they were especially interested.
Mr.. Aubrey has made up his mind
that a state organization of CONNER
cial bodies is very necessary. that ey-
cry town of any importance should be
encouraged to organize a commercial
club. believing that united action on
the part of such an organization will
not only aid materially in developing
the state. but force other states to ac-
cord us the distinction due us as
most important factor in CONNER
ciaI circles i'm all matters of national
interest.
Your generous proposition that FL
Paso be elected as the place for
convention for the purpose of federat-
ing state organizations, has this one
drawback. you are too far from the
center and | think some place should
be selected which would equaliZe as
near as possible the time and expense
that would be involved. OF course we
would like to nave the convention
here. but would not antagoniZe Waco
or even Dallas if the indications were
that a greater number would be pres
ent by electing those points.
IF we can be of any service to you
in originating sufficient interest to
make the move a success. don't hest
tate to call on us.
Yours very truly.
(SignedD Chas. n. Right.
Secretary"
