FOR CITY GOAL
Elaborate Booklet, Foreign
Advertising Planned;
to Move Offices

Directors of the Chamber of
Commerce voted to remove the
office of the organization to the
quarters in the city hall, which
were formerly occupied, at a
meeting held Tuesday night with
Milo Strong, president, presiding.
It is believed that this location
will serve the purposes of the or
ganization until next spring, and
az that time consideration may
again be given to Main street
location during the tourist sea-
son. Several hundred dollars will
be saved by this move. The re
turn to the city hall will be made
before the end of the month.
A small appropriation for news
paper advertising in eastern and
western newspapers was approved
by the directors. The advertise
ments will be published for seven
weeks and will be placed in lead
ing newspapers in 10 cities, as
far west as Kansas City and as
far east as Trenton, n. ]. This
advertising will be directed to
people travelling to Florida dur
ing the fall and winter.
The directors approved the
printing of booklet, which will
be the largest and most attractive
advertising of the kind the Cham
her of Commerce has done in sew
eral years. This is expected to be
ready for distribution before the
end of the year and the edition
will consist of 10000 copies. The
