CHAMBER'S 'SHOT IN akm
IS JUST A SLEEPING PILL
Only five members and four
guests were present at last week’s
Chamber of Commerce meeting,
at which plans for reviving in
terest in the organization were
to have been discussed. It also
was originally planned that at
this meeting, held in the eve
ning, there would be some out
line developed for Chamber of
Commerce sponsorship of pro
motion of business for Palmer.
Because of the limited attend
ance, little action was taken at
the meeting. The group listened
to guest Ed Baldwin of Anchor
age discuss plans for the Western
Alaska Fair, to be held in An
chorage next month. Mr. Bald
win said he planned to schedule
the Anchorage fair dates just
to the Valley fair. He asked for
co-operation between the two
fairs, and requested backing for
his plan to obtain Valley exhibits
for the Anchorage fair.
Mr. Baldwin also explained
his plan to devote the next issue
of the “Alaskan Agriculturist,"
monthly paper which he edits, to
features on fairs throughout the
Territory. He asked that a paper
on the Valley fair be submitted
to him for publication.
President Clayton Esslinger
appointed a committee of four
Chamber members to work on a
brief to be submitted to officials
of the Methodist Church, in an
attempt to locate a proposed lib
eral arts college in the Valley
Clare Stock, M. D. Snodgrass,
Louise Kellogg and Mr. Esslinger
make up the committee working
on the brief.
Further plans for the promo
tion of Palmer businesses, and
ideas to develop an increased in
terest in the Valley Chamber of
Commerce, are to be discussed
at a meeting of the Chamber’s
board of directors. That meeting
will be held in the Esslinger
home at 8 o’clock on Aug. 1.
