the 6eftNNOoO BUSINESS LEAGUE.

The 6efENMO0D BUSINESS LEAGUE.
There b no reason why the mem
bership Of the Greenwood Business
League could not be doubled. There
is not such another institution in
tho state that enjoys more distinction
in the field within which it works
than does our Business League.
And it is our duty to cooperate with
this organization and launch q new
membership campaign
It should be the declared purpose
of the organization to at least add a
hundred members, and to accom-
plish this task within the next sixty
days. This season of the year af-
fords US an excellent opportunity to
realize these results.
This object can be accomplished,
and ought to be accomplished.
When thrt end is achieved the Bus
mess League will be an organization
truly representative of every bust
ness interest of Growing Green
wood.
The business man of this city
who remains outside of the Business
League makes a mistake, viewed
purely from his own selfish interests.
His failure to array himself with the
organization that is working for
the growth and upbuilding OF
Greenwood Injuries him far more
than it does those who are doing
good work for their home city.
If every member will make a
pledge to get at least one new mem,
Der within the next sixty days it
will strengthen our title of owning
the most formidable organization Of
its kind in the state. And it means
a great deal to have such an organ.

influential as the Greenwood Bust.

the best interests of the whole state
But here's the only hitch. This
organization should be strengthened

reasons could be given why its is
imperative that new members must
