How About an Institute

For some time there has been
some talk of holding another
community institute in this city,
similar to the one conducted
here last year, but as yet no
definite action has been taken
along that line and as the time
is getting short something
should be done by the business
people.
The community institute held
here last year resulted in much
good being done, several i'm
portant things being accom-
plished among which was the
Commercial & Credit Associa-
ton, The Woman's Council,
Agitation for a County Repre-
sentative, an increase in MEM
bership of the Commercial Club,
a class in Community music, be-
sides a development of the COM
munity feeling among the people
of the city.
The date for holding a COM
munity institute should be some
time before Christmas and some
work along this line is needed
at this time. We are in hopes of
seeing another community in
stitute for the city for we be-
lieve that they accomplish much
good.
