James o. Pagan, an authority on
economic and labor matters, known

Signalman," describes In the follow.
ing manner the vital function of the
civic organizations in the life of h
community:
"ln my opinion a Chamber of Com.
merce is an ideal, cooperative insti.
tuition. 1t represents an idea that is
founded on the rock of genuine social
and Industrial welfare. 1t believes in
the proper and careful conservation
of industry, and 1t is continually
striving with all the influence at it's
command to improve conditions, to
humanize relationships, and to in.
duce men, women and children to
work together, play together and live
together.
Furthermore, it is mistake to
suppose that Chamber of Commerce
is intended for merchants or business
people exclusively. So far as 7 can
make out, after visiting quite num-
ber OF them, the Chamber of Com.
merce is in q great measure a COM
munity club. It's activity is concerned
with all other healthy and progress.
i've activities, and 1t seals it's work in
every department with the sign man.
ual and the spirit manual of com.
munity welfare.
"The writing on the industrial wall
today informs me that before long,
stOrekeepers, merchants, employers
and employees as well, will have to
wake up to the vital importance OF
their Chamber of Commerce, whether
they want to or not"

is wanted as Member of Red Cross
Organization in This District.
Owing to the prevalence of infiu-
enza Terrell county was not repre-
sented at the important conference
of the southern division of the Red
Cross held in Atlanta November 21st.
Press of business made it impossible
for Hon. NJ. j. Yeomans, county pres
ident of the Red Cross, to attend and
for reasons stated the delegate ap-
pointed deemed it unwise to make the
trip.
The conference had for it's object
the Christmas roll call, which means
that during the week of December
10th to 23rd the Red Cross hopes to
enlist every adult person in the di-
vision as a member of the organiza-
ton. The work of the Red Cross
was never more important than at the
present time, and in view of the ire
mendous tasks ahead it seems a small
thing for the local chapter to ask that
each adult in Terrell county not al
ready enrolled shall enlist at once.
