Campaign of Education.
That at once an organized and persist
cnt campaign OF education bc begun TO
convince the people Of Salt Lake that the
thousands Of dollars annually expended
10y them in wildcat advertising would
better be contributed TO the association |
for use In systematically advertising the |
advantages of the city and State to the |
outside world. 1t is submitted that II |
the money annually wasted I'm Salt Lake |
in more or less mistaken efforts to pro- |
mote the growth OF the city could be |
concentrated In the treasury OF some as
sociatlon devoted TO and equipped for |
that work, the fund would be SUFFICIENT |
to carry the name Of Salt Lake and her |
advantages 10 capital and home seekers |
throughout all the United States.
Will Return Results.
II sentiment TO this end can be
created and this association can receive
from the loyal people OF Salt Lake even
email part OF the money practically |
wasted upon every plausible schome Of
fered for personal profit In the name OF
good advertising" II Will undertake TO
return substantial results many times
greater than any now secured. The Los
Angeles Chamber Of Commerce. the Cali
fornla State Promotion committee and
the Denver Bureau of Publicity are or
gani5ations now strikinely illustrating
what systematic advertising can do for
State and municipal growth whom large
stand behind them with small and regu-
lar contributions. Our people are loyal |
10 Salt Lake-no one dare dispute that,
Our people are as intelligent as the people
OF California and Colorado Why, then,
cannot we get them to see the advantage
OF concentrating their strength upon
plan TO advertise this city persistently |
and effectively
What Los Angeles Does
Eighteen hundred men contribute
monthly 81 each TO the Los Angeles
Chamber Of Commerce, and the Los An
geles chamber thus supported has no
tlonal fame for Its efficiency Let us try
1t on in Salt Lake. Let ask every one
whose hopes and home are here, to appro-
pirate little every month to our treas
ury and so enable us to furnish the pub
licity we need TO insure in fact as well
as In fancy, "a Greater Salt Lake
Will Give a Banquet.
That for the present the plan for
public meeting be held in abeyance. and
the members Of the association center
upon tho giving OF a banquet some time
In February, which shall be moderate in
price, comprehensive In attendance and

epacity as producing State. The ban

together of the best good red blood OF
Salt Lake for the purpose of sending
widespread the thought OF "A Greater
Salt Lake" and the adoption of modern
and effective methods to bring about tho
building OF IT here at the center OF the
surrounding empire. IT is believed such |
a banquet Will Inspire confidence in the
association and send il bounding into |
great achievements

That as soon as the funds on hand NAV
be spared for that purpose a mammoth |
sign be erected on some building In the | ,
central portion of the city. where IL can |
be seen by all strangers which shall
