Thursday noon, as per schedule,
a business mans lunch was given
at the West Cafe, at which time,
DIR. Weber, noted community wiz

to gain this new crop of citizens.
He stressed the necessity of coop

farmers.
An organization in which both
farmers and business men would
get together and express their

speaker at this time.
The master lesson to be learned

to live peacefully and harmonious
