CHAMBER
WILL HOLD ANNUAL
MEETING THURSDAY

The Phoenix chamber OF commerce
will hold its regular annual meeting
next Thursday, March 3, at 4 o'clock
D. m. for the consideration of impor-
tant business of the chamber.
Among the recommendations which
will be submitted at the meeting by
the election committee will be one
asking that the date of annual meet
ings be designated by the board of
directors in March each year rather
than on the second Thursday in
March. The reason for this change
is to allow for a margin in fixing
the date OF meeting in order that it
shall not conflict with other events
Of importance.
The meeting will also be asked TO
change the date OF making nominal
tions from the first Thursday in
March to the first Thursday after the
14th Of March In order that members
who pay all their bills on the tenth
OF each month may have time to pay
their annual dues and become eligible
TO vote.
Another important suggested
change is that which provides for
secret mail ballot for the final elec-
ton The ballots are to be mailed
to the members within one week after
Tie PRIMARY anu d1o 70 ~ AStuEhSu
within four days.
The election committee, consisting
of John bennett, Jr., w. w. Edwards
and Ben Stanton, has gone over the |
bylaws OF the organization with |
great care and believes that with |
these changes no other changes will |
have to be made for a long time in |
order to insure the efficiency Of the |
chambers operations.

barn. owned by De Forrest Ball0u was
destroyed. The total damage isN,esti.
Neither Tryon nor his wife was aware
of the fire until notified, although the
