This is a most important meeting, as it is very ncres sary to elect men who will be willing to give of their time in order to ;arry out the program outlined for the Chamber this coming yea. Every individual member is, urged to be present, and an insistent In vitation is given to those who wish to become members to be in it ;endance. . No town can expeet to go ahead industrially or- commercially without a live organization of thi kind. Scotland Neck must make progress, so it must have an aggressive Chamber of Commerce. Every business and professional man, every farmer who is interested in the forward progress of the town,every single individual is urged to be present and give support to the organization in whose hands lies the upbuilding of the town. Let this be the year of the closest and most enthusiastic cooperation of all ; interests "ever known in the history of Scotland Neck. Let all selfishness beput aside and let the years slogan truly be: "EVERY ONE FOr ANDTHERS AND ALL TOGETHER FOR SCOTLAND NECK."
