"The high level of immuniza- tion in our own community has come about through daily inter- pretation by the staff of the importance of protection against those diseases for which we have an effective ac- \tive immunization agent. The participation of many groups made it possible to carry out our mass immunization pro- grams.

A common fallacy, for example, was that a cham- ber existed for the sake of "big business". In fact, a Yhamber exists for its community, and if it forgets its obligations to the community it loses its reason for existence. The Oshawa Chamber is now a vigorous organization with over 500 members, most whom take an active part in one or more of the projects and programs punsued by the cham- bey. These programs are all Mayor Lyman Gifford gave a helping hand to the current fund raising campaign of the Oshawa Kinsmen Club when he purchased a can of maple syrup.

Wage-eannens as well as in- dividual business men, indus- trial €xecutives and members of the professions make up the membership. Each province has its provin- cial chamber, which is nothing more or less than an entity which exists by and for the in- dividual community groups, just as the Canadian Chamber exists for the provincial organizations. The chamber structure thus grows from the grass-roots, its policies being set and its necom- mendations dnawn from the di- verse membership across the country, representing the think- ing of the dentist, the doctor, the stare manager, the office worker, the proprietor of the commer store as much as, in- deed more than, that of the "big operator", since the latter are few and the former many. The chamber strength, then, is drawn from the individual, com- munity - serving organization. Oshawa is fortunate in having a chamber with vigorous, able leadership and a wide ani rep- resentative range of member- ship.
