"Chamber of Commerce and Community Spirit," Topic of Lindley's Tall
Chancellor Expresses Thought That Athletics and Music Are Great Unifiers
"The Chamber of Commerce and Community Spirit" was the subject of Chancellor E. H. Lindley's talk at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon
"The old-fashioned board of trade or chamber of commerce was organized for the promotion of business," said the chancellor. He continued by saying that the "new sort of Chamber of Commerce is a most comprehensive agency for advancement of all commercial businesses this is recognition that good business is made possible by good conditions in the community."
In the course of his talk, Chancellor Lindley expressed the thought that health, happiness, efficiency, right conditions of employment, education, opportunity and investment are some of the greatest factors of a good community.
Athletics and music are two great community unifiers, the chancellor believes. "Music is not only a source of recreation, but also of uphill."
"The big objective of Lawrence is not to be great industrially, but to be a community rich in the worthwhile things we want, and the most desirable people," he said.
The chancellor concluded his talk with the statement that "Music week may be made a great magnet, at Lindsboro, but that it is more important, even for business, than most sorts of conventions."
