P.y far the greatest number of shop
l.Kii every enn. lied in the Chamber
!' Commerce have a'-ccpted member
ship card:-, in the organization this
year and wi'.I join whoh heartily in
the campaign to keep Plattsmouth in
;1il fro.it ranks during 1930.
Co-'Ve Luschinsky, who is a mem

: core i f tho?u for whom he carried
membership cards responded readily
;ii!d in some instances shopmen have
nine forward and volunteered their
ir-embt rs-hip fee without waiting for
the cc iiuii it tee to call on them. Such
interest in ivie betterment indicates
a healthy condition of mind being
' ivic minded." a phrase that was de
fined in an earlier C. of C. article.
It mears these men are willing to
accept their siiarc of the responsibil
ity of bo,'.-ting for Plattsmouth. of
upholding tl:e good name of our com
r. unity and raising their voice (thru
the purchasing power of their mem
l.nr.hin fee) to give publicity to the
pnortunities afforded here.

The Finance and Budget committee-
H continuing its membership cani-p-tig:i,
pv.tting in every possible min
ute of available time but is not near
ly through with the canvas yet. as it
i a n lot of time to personally see
the more than 300 eligibles who have
been voted membership and for whom
they held cards, waiting acceptance.
There is need of every citizen of
Plattsmouth belonging to this organi
zation. The cost of an individual
member-hip is so small that it would
not .jven be missed little more than
a cent a day. So when the committee
.-alls on you with your card, speed
them on their way by accepting it
promptly for in this manner they
i an get around to see several others
in the limited time they can take
from their own business activities in
any one day.
The membership Is now well over
the 150 mar?:, and the budget, in
stead of being made up of large sums,
subscribed by a few, will comprise
mostly the smaller individual sub
scriptions, which carry with them the
gocd-wiil and booster spirit of a
greatly enlarged circle of citizens of
our community.
Thus, there is being proven this
, year, more thrn ever before, that the
Chamber of Commerce is NOT an ex
clusive bn-dness men's organization.
Welcome to the new members who
e-.-iv.e from al! wall's of life and rep
resent nearly every line of endeavor
earned on in oit city.
The li.-t cf all those signed up by
Saturday wil! be published in the
Evening Journal Saturday night and
added to later as others come into the
organization.
