Important Meeting
of Chamber Tonight
In calling the attention of the mem
bers of the Anchorage Chamber of
Commerce to the important meeting
tonight The Daily Times hopes to
reach a responsive chord. It should '
not be necessary to be forever ham
mering the members in regard to t?R
importance of these meetings and
personal, as well as civic pride should
come to the rescue.
Tonight’s meeting is ultra import
ant, as the election of officers will,
take place, but judging from the;
amount of latent enthusiasm it will i
not be necessary to increase the seat
ing capacity.
The last two meeting nights have
been void of members and Chairman
Wendler and Secretary Koch have had
the extreme pleasure of entertaining
each other. Still the balance of this
busy members are ever prone to find
fault if public matters are not attend-'
ed to with thoroughness and dispatch
and are always ^eady to ask the sim
ple question why?
Naturally the entire citizenship of
Anchorage are proud of the Chamber
of Commerce building and the neat
and attractive appearance it always
presents inside and outside, still two
or three energetic members cannot
keep up the enthusiasm and do the
work of the entire membership.
There are several matters of vital
importance which further develop
ment mean much to the city but they
require the united action of the An
chorage Chamber of Commerce and
the co-operation of its members.
It is really up to the members to be
on hand promptly at tonight’s meet
ing and have a voice in the meeting
and lend their aid to the fulfillment of
matters now pending before the cham
ber.
The army transport Crook, which
was scheduled to sail this morning at
9 o’clock was delayed, and will not de
part until tomorrow morning. The
Crook will not carry the outgoing
rhail.
IMPORTANT
Notice to Pioneers of Alaska.
There will be a meeting of Pioneers
to elect officers for the ensuing term.
All those desiring to become charter
members, or wishing to affiliate with
the Pioneers of Anchorage are ear
nestly requested to be present on
Tuesday, 8 p. m., Sept. 12th. at Labor
Temple Hall. Don’t forget the date.
