C. OF C. REORGANIZED AND BEGINS WORK (Continued from page o*?) tion, which automatically gives mem bership in the Woman's Bureau, with no further dues. The women oi the vtown, through the Woman's Bureau, nave done much good work for the community, and the fact that they are to be actively interested in the Chamber of Commerce is assurance that unusual results will be obtained during the coming year. Pat Kimzey sounded the keynote of the meeting, when in a brief plea for co-operation, made just before elec tion of officers, he urged that all peo (-Jtf?'Of the town stick to the officers ?nat were about to be elected, regard #*".s of whom were chosen, forget some of the "nasty personalities" that have been so prevalent in the com munity, and not be a "back-biter." Mr. Kimzey was given much ap plause. . President Jerome, in an impassion ed piea for the betterment of the town and a closer cooperation of all the people, touched in his plainspoken way of the duties of the membership of the Chamber of Commerce, stress ing the fact that the president and | officers of the organization were pow erless unless the membership was co operative. "It is time," the new president declared, "that the people of Brevard forget the things that are small, the things that are mean, the things that are selfish, and all work shoulder to shoulder for the best in terests of the community. 'To be or not to be,' as Shakespeare said ? Whether it is nobler for ourselves and our town to suffer the pangs of these petty grievances, selfishness, jeal ousy. greed, antagonism, or to take is parms, and by cooperation, work, and earnest endeavor, try to end them. "Too much energy has been wast- , ed." Mr. Jerome continued, "in this , town unon small, petty, selfish things. Personal feelings have been entirely too dominant with some of us. These . things avail nothing in the way of ? upbuilding a community. Let's for- , get the things that are gone and all ?>ul! together for a greater Brevard. , And a greater Brevard cannot be j marl" by the officers of this Chamber , of Commerce. No one man, no small . group of men, can do the work that is j so badly needed to be done here ? it is ( a work for all. We can go forward j if wc all try- I will do my part, and j I'm expecting you to do your full ( share." j CLASSIFIED ADS FOR RENT ? to Reliable Party , 3- t room apartment with bath, hot and cold water, Furnished or unfur nished, including electric range.

C. .A2|6t< I BANK PLAN NEAR1NG : WORKERS' REPORT 1 (Continued from % age one\ ? calibre, would guarantee complete restoration of confidence in the com munity, it is said by those interested in the plan of re-organization. B. W. Trantham, directing the work of procuring signatures to the agreement . for re-organization and re-opening the bank, expresses hope that the work will soon be completed. Depositors have been signing rapid ly during the past several days, it is reported, and the hard task comes in seeing all those who have but small amounts in the bank, yet whose sig natures to the agreements are just as necessary as if they had large de posits. Being scattered throughout the county, these depositors with small balances on deposit must be seen by the workers and Mr. Tran tham asks the aid of all who will volunteer to help in obtaining the signatures. Insofar as the amount of deposits is concerned, it is said, the work is about completed. Practically every large depositor has signed the agree ments, and many of them are now helping the committees round up the smaller depositors, which, after all,, is the most difficult part of the work. Time is drawing near when the work must be completed, and but a few days remain in which to obtain the ' balance of the signatures. Citizens who have cars and are willing to de vote a few hours to this work of re- j organizing the bank and re-opening ! are urged to call at headquarters, in th?f Joines Motor company's place of ! business, and be given names of de- i positors to see and obtainr signatures. With the work of tfcie point com mittee making this satisfactory head- , way, thought is now turning to other , phases of the proposition, such as j obtaining the state's sanction for re- '( opening the institution under condi tions embraced in the agreement, and the procuring of the $36,000 by the stockholders to be placed in the bank, which is one of the requirements of , the argeement. No report has been received as to these matters, but it ! ] is assumed that those in charge of : < these phases of the question will be ready to meet the requirements, if , ill the depositors sign the agreement, j Many citizens are expressing impa :ience with the long time being spent I n the work. Five months have now passed since the bank closed, and the ;xperiences of the community in that live months has been such as to :reate a marked feeling of uncertain ;y and impatience. Those working on ;he proposition declare that they have )een working as rapidly and they :ould, and have done in their power :o rush the work to completion.
