Do it Right.

With an income OF $40, 600 a year
it would be possible for the proposed
Cairo Chamber of Commerce to ae-
complish big things. In order toI
create an annual fund of this size
ii will be necessary to have men,
bership of 400, each member paying
an annual fee of s25. 1t should
not be a difficult matter to obtain
the 400 members, nor should it be
more difficult to convince them OF
the Importance of placing the dues
at $25
There is not a business man in
Cairo, regardless of the size or ma
ture of his business, who could not
afford to pay S25 into the treasury
of an organization that is bound. by
yitue OF its financial strength, to
benefit the town. 1t would be
cheaper for him to pay S25 a year
for something rather than Sc or $40
a year for nothing.
Within the last few years more
than fifty organizations similar to
the club Cairo proposes TO form have
been organized in different parts of
the country In the beginning an
effort was made to do business on
the basis OF small membership fees,
but these clubs either have passed
out of existence, or have increasd
their dues to at least s25 a year and
I'm f.,rt - AZ fel
amount. 1t has been found that
a commercial organization of any
sort in any community must have a
strong financial backing to compete
with other cities for factories. to
solve housing problems and to do
other things in the line of CONNER
cial organization work.
A commercial club is nothing
more or less than a business institu-
tion, formed for the purpose of con-
Quoting work in the mutual inter
ests OF the city and its citizens. Likt
dry goods houses grocery stores,
banks, newspapers, public utilities
and all other business, it must have
funds. Without a surplus In the
bank, or substantial pledges in the
hands of the treasurer, it is sbso-
lutely impotent as an instrument OF
progress
Lack Of funds has been the geat-
est drawback in the work OF the
present local organizations. This
Is specially true of the Commercial
club and the Retail Merchants as
ISOLATION and none knew this better
than the men who have served on
committees appointed to obtain funds
