45. Petitioned Southern Pacific
company to make arrangements for
the handling of theatrical companies
out of Winnemucca on the evening
of and following their performances
in this city, SO that in the future
Winnemucca would be able to at
tract companies Of note, instead Of
allowing them to pass on through
to Reno without making this stop.
Action pending.
46. Sent the secretary to Reno
to attend the annual civic dinner
of the Reno Chamber Of Commerce,
as the representative Of the Hum
boldt County Chamber of Com
merce.
Al. Worked in hearty co-opera-
ton with the local press, securing
full publicity of the activities Of
the chamber at all times. News
items appeared in both local publ
cations during the entire year, space
being provided in at least two is
sues every week, oftentimes APP
pearing every day. We sincerely
appreciate the hearty cooperation
of the press in our efforts.
This is indeed an imposing array
of accomplishments for any COM
mercial organization to boast Of,
and we are to be congratulated in
most laudatory terms in achieving
them. It is my firm conviction that
the real activity Of the Chamber Of
Commerce has but commenced and
I confidently look forward to q year
of even greater activity which will
result, by the time that we meet
again to go over the accomplish
ments which we are just now about
to inaugurate, in truly making Hum
boldt county and the state Of Ne
vada better place in which to live.
In conclusion, allow me to look
into the future, and call your at
tention to a few specific undertak-
ings which we should bend every
effort to accomplish during the COM
ing year.
We must spare no effort in Sc
curing the completion of a first
class hotel Of sufficient size to fully
take care Of the needs of Winnie
mucca and Humboldt county.
We must see to it that by the
end of 1922 the city of Winnie
mucca has acquired, in fee simple,
property of sufficient size and
proper location for park purposes,
and that all work possible is per-
formed thereon in making such q
park in reality.
We must do everything possible
to make Winnemucca and Humboldt
county more attractive, which is SC
necessary if we are to attract new
settlers, and thus not only increase
our population but the value of on,
lands and increased buying power
derived from an increased popula.
ton.
We must concentrate our efforts
on the development of irrigation
possibilities throughout the entire
county, which in turn will prove tc
be a great stimulus in attracting
new settlers and new capital.
We must exert all our influences
to attract and maintain industry
both old and new, in this county
where facilities for their mainte.
nance are second to none in thu
state.
We must encourage mining II
this county to the best Of our abil
ity, through honest and legitimat,
endeavor, and aid the prospectol
and the big mining interests il
coming together for the purpose o.
bargain and sale.
We hooS AOISucI OQI WOTk IN Uni
promotion Of agriculture in its vari
Gus forms throughout the county
by assuring the producer Of a read,
local market for all that he pro
duces, securing thereby a close,
spirit of cooperation between tn,
producer and the local merchant.
We must bring to bear all the in
fiuence at our command to secur,
the proper development Of all road
throughout the county, and see t,
it that this work is properly in
stalled and maintained.
We must guard the varied an,
diversified interests Of Humboldt
county as though they were oul
very own as individuals, and en-
courage their development alon,
honest and legitimate lines, thu
insuring ourselves Of a wholesom,
prosperity for this and comm,
