At the fourth annual meeting OF
the Yavapai County Chamber OF
Commerce held last night. attended
by 25 or more members. the above
named men were elected to consti-
tute the board OF directors to guide
the destiny OF this useful organiza-
ton for the coming year. Each one
on the list is not only representa-
tive business or professional man OF
Prescott but hard and enthusiastic
worker for everything that goes to-
ward the uplift and industrial wei
fare OF Prescott and Yavapai coun-
y. There are three supervisors al
the head of the organization who
are also members eX-ofhcio OF the
board OF directors. This board OF
twenty-five men will meet within the
next few days and elect a president
and other officers necessary to make
the organization complete.
An Earnest Meeting.
The meeting last night was en-
thusiastic and earnest. Every man
present seemed to have the interests
OF the organization at heart, and there
was a general feeling OF optimism
manifested which indicates that the
coming year will surpass in fruitful
results any year in the history OF
the chamber.
At the opening OF the meeting
President Joslin. who has labored
diligently and effectively for one yeai
at the head OF the organization. read
a brief resume OF the work which
had been accomplished. and Secre-
tary Malcolm Fraser also read a re-
port bordering on the same lines,
simplifying many points upon which
the president had been brief. Both
reports indicated that a livc-wirC
bunch of men had been in control
OF the Chamber OF Commerce the
past year, and that as result o.
their untiring efforts more good had
been accomplished for Prescott and
Iavapai county than can be express
ed in mere words.
Among the accomplishments men
toned in these reports the follow
ing were noted as OF particular i'm
portance:
The purchase of forty-five acres OF
land for the Northern Arizona FAN
Association and the securing OF an
option on forty additional acres TO be
purchased in the future While the
Chamber OF Commerce did not take
all the credit for the fair TO itself.
it is known that but for its organic
ed efforts and persistent boosting in
general and detail, the enterprise
could not have been carried through
to a successful conclusion.
1t was shown that as a result OF
the work OF the mining committee
in aiding in the PRONUNCIATION OF en-
terprises and by the publishing and
distribution OF prospectuses and 9TH
er literature. great good had been
accomplished and many mining men
brought into the district.
The placing OF street signs on all
the streets OF Prescott was also the
result OF work by the organization.
Second in importance to no other
one thing was the voting OF bonds
for the erection of a new court house,
a movement originating with the
Chamber of Commerce.
Frontier celebration is another en-
terprIse which was originated by the
