The Memorial, which will cost 3p-

and inspiring memorial to our SER
vicemen who fell in battle. Chang
ing the topic to baseball, the first

Editorial
Junior Chamber Deserves a Hand

Junior Chamber Deserves a Hand
The Washington State Junior
Chamber of Commerce has launched
its first statewide "Invite A Mi
hon" campaign and deserves good
hand for initiating a movement
which should benefit all of us.
It is fairly common knowledge
that the tourist industry is the Sc
c0nd largest in the state. Last year,
for instance. 100000 tourists spent
$100,000000 on their visits in Wash
ingt0n.
The Junior Chamber plans to Gistri-
butte 100000 post cards to the resi-
dents Il The state. We will then be
asked to mail these cards to our
friends throughout the nation, add
ing to he cards personal request
from us 70 them.
With 100000 cards being sent
out, it is not at all unlikely we can
get million tourists in the state this
year and if we follow the arithmeti-
cal pattern set by the 100000 visitors
last year, we should benefit to the
tune &c an extra 81 100000 over last
years figure.
At any rate, the cards will be fur
nished without charge to the people
OF the state through business houses.
For the price of a one-cent postage
stamp we can not only send our
friends an invitation, but can publ
CHE the beauties of Washington
through the set of eight pictures on
the face Of the card.
This seems to be one of those
meritorious efforts in which every
body benefits and nobody loses.
Get your card this month from
some business where you are a pa
tron.
