rauk AWO. BOWM ANVILLE Melbourne E. Turner, Representative Bowmanville of Commerce to Have a Very Active Year Members Well Represented at Meeting When Much Business is Discussed--To Aid Organization During the Coming Year Staff Reporter) Bow March 26---The Bowmanville Chamber of Come merce is certainly taking active ns to put over its 1928 program, night a large representative body of merchants and businessmen re- sponded to the appeal sent out by the executive for an open meeting, and the turnout more than satis- fied them, It was thought that nothing more to the public interest would take place in the Bowman- wille C. of C. after the annual ban- quet at the Balmoral a few weeks ago, but things have taken an astonishing turn for the better, and our Chamber of Commerce Is as . living an organization now as Osh- awa's, A big membership drive is acheduled for the near future and not only the executive but all in- terested who attended the meeting A new, delightful cho- colate bar--divinity fudge, walnuts and pitter-sweet chocolate, Sc tonight are planning to boost the reorganization of this club, It must be stated in this connec- tion of the reorganizaton program, however, that the executive and di- rectors of the 1927 and the 1924 clubs kept the thing going. The only real cause for -its apparent decease was the lack of interest displayed by businessmen in the town in the organization, What had to be dome, though, the C, of C. did it. Some 34 joined the newly form- ed membership tonight, and paid their fees, which has been decided to be set at $6 for the year. The Mayor, T. 8. Holgate was the first to offer his bill, and had the dis- tinction of becoming the first paid- up member for 1928, . When the meeting was declared formally open, a distinet surprise awaited the audience, The chair- man, James Carrothers, arose and simply stated that the gathering had been called to declare in open terms whether the C, of CO. was of enough benefit to the town to exist, or whether it would be stop- ped. Such plain words immediately set the men thinking, This really meant that the state of operation of a body long in existing, had ap- parently come to the changing point and that if interest was not aroused, and soon, the organiza. tion would, like the old empires of Europe, fall away, It was not long, however, until a sufficiently representative num- ber gave their opinion, Each spoke in glowing terms of what the Chamber had done in {its earlier days, and even last year, although then it was hut an existing club, practically. unknown to a disin- terested public, Archie Tait, a well- known merchant of the town, de- scribed the Chamber as deserving public prominence, as also did A. M, Hardy, a representative of the businessmen, George Hall, Thomas Knight, the chairman, Ernie Rhed- er, J. H, H, Jury, Alan Williams, C, W. Cawker, all spoke in glowing H.

Although a fee of $10 was first discussed, the motion was finally arrived at to place the dues at $5. An amendment to the proposal was then suggested by M. J. Elliott, that the dues would b. a minimum of §5, thus making it open for anyone to domate larger sums. Since this restriction is lifted vol. untarily that amendment was not considered, 3 J. H, H. Jury favored an edu- cational campaign, whereby the public might come into the true facts concerning the reorganiza- tion of the case, and that notices and press material be given to the local weekly and to The Oshawa Daily Times for this reason. The public, Mr, Jury stated, should know what is what, if they are to interest themselves in such a pro- position, Benefits from the Cham- ber of Commerce are regular and evident enough, once the citizens knows the operating system, The question arose concerning the great spread between the farm. er's price of eggs and the retail price as sold in Bowmanville stores, Mr, Jury asked the question on behalf of several who had given thought to this matter, It was stated that farmers were driving through the town to other centers to sell their eggs. His point was taken up by T. H, Knight, a promi- nent grocer, who stated that over head charges, such as packing, and other details, with a net gain of only 6% cents on the dozen, caused the necessity for selling 'them at such a price, He said the buying price of eggs reached as high as 28 cents and that they were gener- ally sold here at 83 cents, A deputation consisting of W. Ross Strike and Willlam Cawker was elected to attend the police commission meeting on Wednesday night, when the subject of parking accommodation and traffic condi- tions would be taken up. This sub- ject has been hanging fire for some months, A committee consisting of W, R. Strike and Dr. Baldwin was elect- ed for the purpose of arranging press material, as a permanent ar- rangement, The new organization, the Bow- manville Chamber of Commerce will meet in the council chamber once every month, On the whole, the list of discus- slons which has heen published before, will keep the Chamber of Commerce members busy, It is. of fine material and by the aspect of things, some hig happenings are going to take place soon, LITERARY NIGHT ST.
