The Chamber of Commerce din.
ner and smoker ut the Exchange
Cafe. Friday evening, was ore of
the best meetings ever held by
that body. There was large
attendance and everybody was
happy.
Following n fine dinner, Chair
man Robert l.. Miller called the
meeting to order and introduced
the speakers of the evening.
The first speaker was Roy Bedi-
chek, chairman Of the publicity
committee, who took for his sub.
iect Land and Lot Values in the
Deming District, which proved to be
one of the most valuable papers
ever presented to the Chamber
Of Commerce. Bedichek always
has ideas and has the ability to put
them in form to be understood.
Space is not sufficient for us to
speak of all the good things he
said, but we herewith select few
Of the many ideas:
1T would be easy for me or for
any other experienced booster to
talk about the former low values in
Deming, the present fair prices for
which real estate is selling, and to
speculate concerning rosy future
when prices will soar and all of us
fortunate people who own realty
here reap a rich reward.
Publicity of the intelligent
sort is merely a means of aug
menting the number of people of
means who desire land in given
section. And it is also a means
Of attracting the character of popu-
lation which makes for a still great
er rise in land values. Instead of
allowing a new section like the
Mimbres Valley to just fill up nat
urally with strays, so to speak, in
telligent publicity brings in the
character of people calculated to
bring the region ultimately to its
fullest development. | will fur.

today from forty to seventy.five
