This paper has frequently given
expression to the belief that live
organization of its citizens, whether
a Board of Trade, Chamber of Com
merce, Or by whatsoever name it
may be known, is needed and need
ed badly. Something is needed to
bring the business men Of Cambridge
together, to establish better rela-
tions between them, to effect har-
mony of action and of purpose, to
make all pull together for the COM
mon good Of the city, and to awaken
a realization Of the fact that the
man who pulls only for himself is
not working for the best interests OF
the community, but only for the adj
vancement of narrow and selfish
purposes. There is a call for a
meeting tonight at $50 o'clock, for
the purpose of forming an organiza-
tion to work in the interest Of Cam
bridge as a whole; the meeting will
be held in the former Board Of Trade
rooms, in the Masonic Temple. Let
every one who can be present, and
not only present, but be on time.
Hardness did more to break up the
| old Board of Trade than any other
single factor.
