A number of people ask
"w hy the Chamber of Com-
merce and what is your work
as secretary?" I-et me quote
from the Ry-laws of the organ-
ization. Art. 2. "The object of
; this association is the develop-
ment of Lubbock and Lubbock
County. Art. .'5. All citi-
zens interested in the upbuilding
and development of Lubbock
and Lubbock County and will
contribute to the expenses of
this association are entitled to
memlH'rship. " '
These two articles are self-
explanatory. According to arti-;
cle two the work of the Cham-
ber of Commerce ami its secre- i
tary is anything which is for the
development of this city and
county. What are we attempt-
ing to do? To advertise Lub-
bock to bring Lubbock and its
resources before the attention of
