The conscience to. ; see and recognize the needs of the community and the will to take effective action. It has been well said that a community is poor in purseand, poor in purpose that has not a strong vital and active Board of Trade or Chamber of Commerce, - 11 Reasons Why •I Should Be a' Member of the Chamber of Commerce 1. Because 1 have a business stake in this com- munity which can best be safeguarded by working With others through the Chamber of Commerce to protect and advance all busi- ' ness. I help insure this community's pro- gress which in turn insures the success of my business. 2. It is only fair to me to support the Chamber since I reap benefits through the concerted planning, counsel and action that isbest ob- tained through the work of the Chamber of Commerce. 3. Because I believe that the man who helps his community through active participation in the work of his Chamber of. Commerce will develop his own powers and broaden his own views. 4. Because my support is "plowed back" to yield many -fold benefits in new industries, increas- ed payrolls, health, safety legislation, busi- ness protection and community advancement. 5. Because through the Chamber of Commerce I can best discharge my obligations to this community in which I live and earn my liv- ing. I realize that every man owes a debt to the community that cannot be paid in,taxes, a debt of personal service. 6 Because the 'Chamber of Commerce cannot carry out its broad program of work to pro- tect and advance business without personal service and adequate financial support. 7. Because the Chamber of Commerce . unifies the public spirit of all and directs it into use- ful and constructive channels. 8: Because the Chamber of Commerce helps ere-' ate and express sound opinions affecting' the welfare of Canada. ' 9. Because without a strong, effective Chamber of Commerce we would be less able to com- pete with other towns for new industries and new payrolls. 10. Because I believe it is essential to progress to have a 'central organization eternally watch- ing community welfare and development. I believe the Chamber of Commerce is the cen- tral organization adequately equipped to do this work.. 11. Because the most effective ' and constructive influence is the force of organized business functioning through the Chamber of Com- merce for the purpose of improving our town. We can through organized effort make the kind of town we determine it shall be.
