VALUE OF ORGANIZING.

The work done by the boards of
trade n other commercial bodies in

similar organizations in the smaller

The many services it can render are
Invaluable. 1t can advertise the town
on any and all occasions. 1t can de-
crease local Observation-Disclosures and
differences. allay mere f1ctional spirit
and harmoniZe these. at least u the eS-
tent of uniting for the common good.
IN the upbui!din@ of a town. in hold
ing and increasing home trade. in get
ting improved railroad facilities. in
procuring cleaner streets. more slightly
houses and lawns and in the general
effort for town progress all citizens
are interested. These results can best
be brought about through united and
organized endcavor.
Not only commercial bodies. but So
cret societies. social organizations and
even schools, can assist powerfully iii
the work. But the board of trade or
similar body under whatever name
called must take the lead and set the
pace. Such an organization. holding
regular weekly. semiweekly or month
ly meetings. With subcommittee to
look after different departments of the
work, will find innumerable ways to
help the cause along. New industries
can be procured. the surrounding terri
tory can be %canvassed for trade. and.
above all. local spirit can be kept alive.
The very fact of the existence of such
a body has a suggestive value of great
power. Organize for your W town.
Cities are built not alone with wood
and stone, brick and mortar, but out
