representative to any of the annual
meetings.
Mr.. Dinsmore is attending the
meeting as national councillor and
delegate from Rawlins Board of
Trade.
One of the principal reasons for
the Rawlins Board Of Trade send
ing a delegate to the annual meet
Ing this year was because of the fact
that Hon. B. b. Brooks OF Casper
is a candidate for director of the u.
S. Chamber of Commerce and it was
felt that Rawlins should be on the
Job to do all in her power to advance
h interests of the Wyoming candi-
date. Mr.. Dinsmore went instructed
to work and vote for Mr.. Brooks at
all times.
1t is also believed that while at
this national convention Mr.. Dins-
more will be able t. learn consid-
cradle regarding the organization
and conduct Of Chambers of Com
merce and that upon his return
home he will be able to give valuable
assistance in the proposed reorgan-
ization of the Rawlins Board of
Trade.
Mr.. Dinsmore expects to return
