Junk BROS.

The career of the Junk Bros. Ia an n.
lustration of what steadfast principles
ana well.directed energy will accom-.
plish. But few Chicago men in the
generation now In vigorous manhood
have taken better measurements Of
their opportunities or entered more into
the spirit OF progress which IL an in
separablc part of the life of this city
than they have.
Joseph T.. Junk was born in Chicago
May 20, 1872. and Edward II. was born
Nov. 20, 1873. Their earliest educa.
ton was received at st. Francis Paro.
cliinl School. after which they attended
st. lgnatius College, Joseph finishing
his education at the Sacred Heart Col.
lege Prairie du Chen. WIS.,, and Ed.
ward mt CanisIus College, Buffalo,
New York.
Their early home training and excel.
lent education prepared them TO meet
the responsibilities which fell to their
lot soon after leaving college. No wild
oats were sOwn or foolish chasing after
phantoms. They settled down ut once
10 the practical duties OF business life,
the one as bookkeeper and the other
as manager Of rhe brewery located ut
3'th ana Halsted streets, which had
been their fathers business. That their
energy has been well expended and
their business management of the first
order Is shown by the increased out
put or their great industry, which has
the reputation Of being one Of the most
profitable and carefully managed brew.
cries In the city.
An example of their thOroughness In
their business may be mentioned by
the fact that Edward II. Junk has but
recently returned from Munich, where
he went to observe the late improve
ments In brewing.
They are both Democratic In political
matters. and have rendered their party
many services, both In active work and
In their contributions to the cause. Al
though neither has held office Of any
Importance, Joseph +. Junk has been
mentioned several times by the leaders
In his own adjoining wards for the pc.
sition of Collector OF the Town of Lake.
Two years ago he had very strong sup.
port In the county convention for this
Office He Is now strongly urged to run
for Supervisor, and Is considered an Al
man for the place. He Is n strong man
In his party, and, with the reputation
he has earned as q business man of
ability and integrity, would have the
confidence and support of more than
those OF his own political party. Few
men have reached SO prominent posi-
ton SO early in life as the Junk Bros,
and there Is n very promising future
before them In the business, social and
political world. They are very popular
In social circles In that section of the
city to which they belong and are men,
bers of st. Augustines Church.
They are practical Catholics and act
I've workers In every good undertaking
In the parish. They live with their
widowed mother, Mrs. Magdalena Junk,
