Rejuvenating the Commercial Club

In fair business weather and in foul, the COM
mercial Club is the civic organization to which
the whole city looks for direction and counsel If
this institution is wobbly or lacks the confidence
of the community, the city is in a bad way. A
Commercial Club must stabilize conditions, take
the lead in emergencies, come to the front in adj
vancing the city's interests through representa-
ton in state and national movements
It is idle to blink the fact that for q number
of years the local Commercial club has not en-
joyed the full confidence of the public nor re-
ceived the unqualified support of the communi-
ty. Discussion of the reasons for this condition
is not in place here Suffice to say that these
conditions initiated against the usefulness of the
club, impaired its functions and created a preju-
dice against its activities that were general
they were deplorable.
John NJ. Lontz, whose name and reputation is
well known in this community, has accepted the
presidency Of the club. He proposes to re-organ-
ize the club, change its name if the odium attach
ing to the old organization is prejudicial bring
trained industrial agent to this city, reform the
methods of work, put new life into the SYSTEM
in fact make the Commercial club representative
of the progressive spirit of the city and typical of
the enterprise that has given Richmond the rep
utation it enjoys in Indiana
He is essaying hard task. He knows that
he cannot succeed single handed and without the
cooperation of the whole city,
He deserves the united effort of every citi-
zen of this community. The job he has ahead of
him can be made into pleasant service for Rich
mond if community spirit and community effort
joins hand in hand with his plans.
Everybody who is really for Richmond and
for real Commercial club should enlist in our
community's service by taking out club men,
bership."
This is one of the first requests Mr. Lontz
makes. Scores of men should accept that invita-
ton at once and enroll in the Club under the ca
pable leadership of Mr.. Lontz. The annual fee is
a nominal one. The benefits that the city will
derive collectively and each member individually
far exceed this small outlay of money.
The city cannot expect Mr.. Lontz to come be-
fore it at once with definite program. He indi
Gated yesterday in statement to the press that
he believes the industrial expansion of Richmond
can be accomplished only by employing expert
who knows how to direct and manage this enter
PRISE We agree with him.
Training is the essential of success. A tested,
efficient, capable must occupy the secre-
tarys desk Results soon will follow.
Some of the best citizens of Richmond have
pledged support to Mr.. Lontz. We gladly enroll
under his leadership. We believe that he will be
able to obtain an efficient secretary for the or
and in cooperation with him will be
able to rejuvenate the club and make it a power
full factor for good to the whole community.
