will not permit. Suffice it to say that
ing in an organized way is of great
Importance and far reaching. l am
told that the outlook for house build
ing in Mitchell during the next sum-
mer is exceptionally good. l wish
| it were possible to show just how
much of hat activity is due to a unit
ed business element and the conf
| dence it creates in the future of our
city. Destroy this element and you
have removed one of the strongest
factors in city building.
Before closing let me assure you
| with all possible emphasis, that there
is no room for a pessimist in Mitchell
to-day, nor a shadow of cause for
alarm concerning our city's future.
This is true, first, because Of our
geographical location, territory and
transportation facilities.
Second, because of the number and
magnitude Of our business institu-
tons, coupled with the high reputa-
ton and far reaching influence of our
institutions of learning.
Third, and perhaps foremost in inn
portance, because our city is inhabit-
ed by men and of true worth,
men Of principle and purpose, who
are possessed of an unwavering con-
fidence in their own ability to do
things, one Of the most striking ex-
amples of which can be found in the
gentleman whose departure from
among us we so much regret and to
whom our presence here tonight is
a testimonial, "Mr. T. G. Burns"
Gentlemen, l thank you.
