Smyrna times., 1911-03-01

The battle is on, one of the greatest
conflicts in American history-that
wholesome, uplifting, good natured
conflict between American Commun-
tiles for supremacy. 1t is no ordi-
nary battle, this conflict between
American Communities, for although
contending with one another we are
at the same time fighting a common
enemy, it is legion with spies and
pickets everywhere. 1t has three
closely allied generals, Apathy,
Lethargy and Inaction. They are
deeply and strongly intrenched they
think, but those trenches are only
the ruts that so often retard, but
must never be allowed to halt the
march of progress. Under the
leadership of Enthusiasm, Energy
and Optimism the enemy can be
routed and the opposition conquered
and when the smoke of battle clears
away You will find that you have
achieved success and front rank
among progressive American Com
munities.
"The destiny is in your hands.
The responsibility is yours and the
challenge cannot be evaded. Will
you meet it and succeed or shrink
from it to obscurity and fail ?'

endeavoring to organize a Smyrna
Board of Trade has received letter
from Chas. E. Kingston, Division
Freight Agent of the P. B. and W.
R. R., offering to cooperate with
us and all towns of the State in the
matter of town development. Mr..
Kingtson quotes Woodwork Clum,
Editor of the Clown Development, "
of Chicago, in some timely truths.
In a recent address before the |
Chamber of Commerce, Lancaster,
Pa, (the subject of which was |
"What the Chamber of Commerce
can Do'O, Mr.. Clum said in sub
stance: "To successfully promote |
and solve the problem of local devel-
opment, each of you must consider
it as you do your individual busi-
ness. What would it profit manu-
facturer to erect modern plant,
equipped with the best up-to-date
machinery and producing the best of
a needed product, if he stored it in
his warehouse and let it go at that?
'The community has something to
sell; vacant building lots for houses,
stores, warehouses or industrial
plants or similar plants for rent or
sale; merchants and manufacturers
to be patronized and professional
citizens to consult and a destiny to
determine. The shelves of the local
wareroom are filled with the COM
modify called local advantages. Is
this stock covered with the dust of
years or hidden by a curtain of
cobwebs and have it's owners for
gotten their warehouse and its SAL
able contents?
sin these modern days of keen
civic competition the handle of the
big front door of that warehouse
must be polished and the dust and
cobwebs banished and the world ad-
vised of the quality, nature and util-
ity of these wares by advertising
and exploiting them as we do in
private business. For what is true
of it is equally and in greater degree
true of the community's interest for
without active cooperation neither
can thrive and hence the campaign
of local promotion and development
is no longer optional. There are
three essentials to activity. First,
to interest; second, to convince ;
third, to force action. Every citi-
zen worthy the name is interested
and it is comparatively easy to con-
vince him of the necessity for action
if supremacy is to he won, but the
difficulty is reached in forcing
action. You can hold meetings,
talk things over, and agree upor
what should be done, but the fight
ing volunteers are usually few ant
the majority are prone to shift tn
burden of work and worry on othe
shoulders. forgetting that unite
action is essential and every man
shoulder must be put to the whee
to insure success.
Carefully assemble and compar
your local advantages. Eliminat
the disadvantages as far as pract
cable. Consider your resources

ment needed and for which yol

must not hide its light under
