In addition, you have a chance of . winning one of the prizes offered by that organization. A re- view.of the many activities fostered and put over by the associa- tion would even surprise ourselves—what effect would it have on outsiders? . One of,the constant handicaps the association has had for many years, and which it has today, is the shortness of. fux}ds available for carrying on any work beyond the current running expenses of the association. When a special project is to be: undertaken there has ever been the troublesome question pop up—where is the money! to come from? ‘And with this con- fronting the directors, they have at times passed up proposi- tions, which would mean much to the city, because no funds were on hand to finanee the work necessary to be domne to suc- .gessfully put the proposition over. H We believe a plan should be adopted similar to plans used by other cities for such work. A yearly appeal should be made to cover such activities as the association intend to work on dur- ing the year, so far, at least, as they can be foreseen. Some time ago it became necessary to raise $2,000 to be paid to the state to secure an armory building. It was a case of raise the money. at once, or loose the armory. A number of public-spirit- ed citizens signed notes at the bank aggregating this amount with the understanding that funds would be immediately raised | to take care of the notes and the citizens relieved from their responsibility on them. This has never been done and these same citizens either have paid their notes, or have been required to renew them from time to time. This places an unfair burden _on a few men which,should not be done, . A fund should be raised at once to take care of this obliga- tion and such other requirements as the finance committee finds nécessary for the coming year for publicity, and special work to be undertaken, such.as conventions, ete. Qi SIGN OF CONFIDENCE That the business pulse of the nation is quickening, and that large manufacturers and. wholesalers are 'doing what they can to stimulate business and return it to ne¥mal, is well evi- . denced in the last few weeks by the conclusion on their part to increase the volume of their national advertising. Many firms " are sending ocut new contracts for advertising to newspapérs which carry larger amounts of space than heretofore. It is'a sign of returning confidence in business conditions and is bound to reflect a spirit of stability. ‘Abouf the only . requisite now for pre-war conditions is that every person work ‘a little harder and a) little longer and forget about the easy . ‘money which came during the last year of the war and the year following. - .
