WORK FOR JUNEAUITEs

The suggestion for the formation of civic club GO be composed oi Juneau business men and taxpayers to work in connection with tho City Council and other civic organizations for the progressive advancement of Ju peaus best interest Is timely t possesses the quality of common sense and sound business judgment There ia not @ legitimate business in Juneau that does not depend for u measure Of success as much upon com munity development it does upon individual ei'of,
 The further suggestion. that on adequate supply or pure water s one of the matters chat such an organza ton could aid the City Council in securing for the city, is saney sensible Ii the men who are used to doing biz things take proper interest n this and other mat ters they can materially aid the municipal government n many ways They can assist i in getting good bar ans for the city, and In securing the advice and using the knowledge Of more men who know.
 As further suggested there ore many other things that such an organization could do In backing up and working with the City government. the Commercial Ciub-and other organizations that would work for the citys good.
 The development Of Juneau and Gastreau channel to the fullest extent warranted by the conditions that surround as Is matter that concerns every business
 man. property owner and resident on the channel Ev- ery business man should consider community develop men as one of the important branches of his individual business t s an important branch of t and Che one chat promises the greatest returns for che time and e' fort devoted Go it There is absolutely nothing that counts SO much for individual profit and progress as united cooperative community action for the common good.
 Much hns been said in Alaska about the seattle spirit" The real Seattle spirit" means simply that Seattle business men rsked everything upon the growth end development of their city. That is what we need here Let every Gastineau channel man risk every thing that be and hopes to have upon the growth and development o1 the community The resources strategica position and trend of tho times are all In conspiracy to make great city here There is none on the channel who cannot make more by developing the city than be can any other The maryels wrought by the Seattle spirit" are the proofs Let us develop "Gastineau channel spirit" Let us make Juneau as biz as we can and the finest city of her size in the West We can do it
