Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Tenth Annual Goodfellowship Supper: Masonic Temple, April 6, 1914
Members Chamber of Commerce of Champaign, Illinois - One year ago you elected me to serve as head of your association, an honor for which I thanked you at that time in saying that I would do all in my power to deserve your confidence by increasing the strength of our association and its power for good in our community.
What has been accomplished during the year which closes to night, is known in a general way to all of you, but perhaps you do not realize my indebtedness, nor yours, to the other officers who constitute your board of directors, and it is due them, that I say they have been loyal to you, to their fellow citizens and to me, in all work which has been undertaken. They have responded readily to every demand on their time and have given valuable service and the benefit of business experience, in dealing with some of the prob lems which had to be solved in a way to help our city and prevent heavy monetary losses to your association. Those problems were solved successfully and with fairness to every one. I say to you now.
