BEHRENDS AND
 MCBRIDE BOOST

This get-together party, which in substance is the meaning Of the Com mercial club banquet" said B. M. Beh- rends." is really one Of the best ideas suggested for a long time in Juneau
 'I know of nothing" he continued, that has the possibilities of bring ing greater good to the community. We will all become better acquainted with each other through the exchange of ideas. and be in better circum- stances to join with each other in planning for the advancement not only of business conditions, bu to help any line of improvement for the community"
 What do I think of the banquet? Well. I am for it," said J. c. Mcbride. Every business man in town is for it. The good that will come from a meeting of this kind can not be real ized all in a moment. There is no end to the possibilities. First, it surely should result in making the Commercial Club an organization Of first importance to the city When
 a city has a good effective com mercial body it has a united business community. Where there is union there is strength and what Juneau needs now is strength enought to grasp the opportunity that is here knock ing at the door We will not only prosper in a busniess way by meeting and becoming better acquainted, with each other. but We will profit some what through a better and more sym pathetic understanding with each other socially"
 As a matter of fact the banquet is getting to oe the most interesting top ic about town.
 The committee having the affair in hand has determined not to allow the interest to flag and for this reas- on personal visits are being made throughout the business section.
 A member of the committee steps up to the favored person and presents him with a well-printed and nicely worded invitation to the big festival, and then before he recoyers from his surprise a ticket is slipped into his hand. and by the time the invited guest fully realizes what has hap pened the committee has walked on with the cash in hand. No chance of a man staying away after investing in tickets" said one - hence the committee is gleefully contemplat- ing the grand time that is to be had
