gagged in. No New York or Boston
youngster is sharper than the Southern
lad in grasping every opportunity for
charming the nimbe dollar into his
pocket. 1t is with one OF these bright
boys that this letter has to deal.
Just think OF a boy beginning busi
ness at the age of 16! Just think Of
this same boy employing ten men at
the age OF 1S And then think of this
lad discussing business affairs with
leading men OF his city. and you have
faint idea of the capacity of Willie
w. Haynie, manufacturer and retailer
of Danville, Va.
Willie is modest. despite his success
in business. and when Colonel j. NJ.
Neal. his mentor, introduced him to the
representatives OF the New England
Newspaper League it was with diff
Guilty that he was persuaded TO tell the
story of his business career.
Willie was born September 9, 1881,
and consequently will not be Is for
nearly six months His father. Thomas
Haynie, was a physician in Halifax
county. Virginia, and in addition car
ried on a tobacco farm, so that Willie
was brought up with an intimate
knowledge of the growth and treatment
of the weed.
Wllies early education was acquired
in a district school of Halifax county.
After the death of Dr. Haynie the
family removed 10 DanVille, where Will
lie at the age Of II made his first busi-
ness venture. He sold newspapers and
made enough money TO pay his way
through "a commercial college.
With the technical knowledge sec
cured in the commercial institution
Willie bethought himself of larger
fields. He opened a news and cigar
store and accumulated money fast. AZ
ter a year of prosperity Willie made
still another advance i'm his business
career and began the making of cigars.
This was i'm December. 1897. when he
was but little more than l6 years old.
At first he hired but one workman, and
his news store was his factory. After n
month another cigarmaker was hired
and a little later Willie found il neces-
sary to open a separate factory and to
hire more men. lie has since gone on
expanding his business until now he
employees ten hands, the oldest heavy
beared man of so. the youngest a ship
per. aged l6. There were three cigar
factories in Danvile when Willie began
business, anw he has the field to him
self. He manufactures 1000 cigars a
day and none of them stale on his
hands.
Willie pays cash for most Of his pur
chases but the argest New York firms
are glad TO extend him credit for what
ever he wants. Colonel j. NJ. Neal, a
prominent business man Of Danville,
stands as sponsor for the boy as "A mat
ter of legal form. Colonel Neal is
proud of Willie and predicts for him a
successful future.
Willie still conducts his cigar store.
which is we'll stocked with everything
10 suit smokers. In addition he does a
large business i'm newspapers and peri
odicals. He Is a special agent for all
the leading papers of the North and
South. He IL a traveller too, and has
visited all the principal cities in the
states along the Atlantic seabord, as
well as those of the middle Atlantic.
