CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
URGED AT HIGHLANDS
HIGHLANDS, Fob. 12.—Of vital
importance to Highlands is the re
organization of our chamber of
O'nnmercc, which at present is no
more. All business men and women
>hould realize that a live chamber
of commerce is the best means oi
placing the business organizations
of a resort town on a better pay
ing basis. A cooperative organiza
tion, such as a chamber of com
merce must be, has a chance of
bringing a town to the front,
whereas the efforts of individuals
and small organizations in this are
futile. In Highlands there is no
one organization which could do
as much for improving and ad
vancing the town in as many ways
as could an active chamber of
commerce. Had Highlands such an
organization it could, among other
things, sponsor:
Profitable advertising of the
town and the businesses therein:
the inviting of clubs or of other
groups which are seeking places
for summer meetings, or conven
tions, to come to Highlands;
enoug-h constructive beautification
of the town to give favorable im
pressions to travelers; the planni,ng
of programs especially designed to
bring people to Highlands; the
planning and oonducting of any
formalities necessary in welcoming
people to the town; and any other
civic activities. It could also do
much to foster and encourage civic
pride among the citizens.
In organizing this chamber of
commerce it must be remembered
that the group should not repre
sent a small minority of Highlands
busmess men, but should have the
mterest and backing of all legti-
mate 'businesses, various clubs, in
dividual citizens, and of the town
Itself. It is one organization which,
to be a success, must have the
people of the town united in the
one great cause of civic growth and
welfare.
