The Letter Box

The Editor
OF The Sentinel:
/ understand that the Rockville
Chamber OF Commerce will, in the
near future, commence a drive for
additional membership.
Recently l had the privilege OF
hearing the minutes of the Cham
Der read, noting with interest that
II was organized in 1925.
/ venture to say that many per-
sons are ignorant of the vast
amount of work that has been ac-
eomplished by the Chamber OF
Commerce, by initiative and also
by cooperation with the County
Commissioners and Town Council
OF Rockville in the Improvement
and progress of the town and the
comfort and convenience of the
citizens.
Having heard the minutes read
l learned that much of what has
been accomplished is credited sole
~ to the State and County officers
whereas the Chamber has expended
much time and energy in starting
the ball rolling in the direction of
many of the towns greatest i'm
provements.
Ny reaction to this lack of pub
Lefty on the part of the Chamber
is that, they should get the credit
that is coming to them, not only
as justice to the organization, but
to spread the knowledge of its
valuable work and in that way at
tract increased membership.
The meetings are open to the
public but few outside the mem
bers attend and this, together with
the proverbial Rockville lethargy.
Is discouraging to those who are
interested in the civic progress and
welfare. A miscellaneous clipping
from last weeks Sentinel is es-
pecially appropriate: "You can't
convince some citizens that what
ever is done to help the town in
turn helps them"
So lend the Chamber of Com
merce hand, and go to them with
your membership fee-don't make
them beg as if for a personal
favor. And, among the don'ts -
Don't use hammer to knock. but
to build"

regard.

Vineland, N. j., survives. Eding-
ton Bell and Campbell Myers of

Spread gay carpet scarlet and

Over the pathways her footsteps

Weave a soft coverlet spotless and

Fold it about her Gently, all,
