day elected President of the Carolina

The business of the Carolina Manufac-
turing Company has steadily grown and
it is now of snch magnitude that it re-
quires the entire time of the president.
Mr.. Carlisle, who is President of the
National Bank of Newberry, noti-
fled the Board several months ago that
they must look out out for man to
take the presidency as, owning to his
duties rs President of the Bank and his
connection with other enterprises, he
would be obliged to resign the position

Mr.. Burton intends to devote his entire
attention to this business. He will
have the assistance of Mr.. f.. A. Car
Isle, who has been for years connected
with the company and is thoroughly
familiar with its affairs.
The Board accepted Mr.. M. A. Car
isles resignation as president to take
effect on the 18th day of April, and
elected Mr.. Burtor as his successor. A
resolution Of thanks to Mr.. Carlisle
for his faithful and efficient services as
president was unanimously adopted.
Newbcrry is proud of The Carolina
Manufacturing Company. 1t is one of
the most substantial enterprises in the
community; its business is growing and
it is source of qualification to the peo-
pie Of Ncwberry that wherever the pro-
duct Of this factory is sold it is regarded
as the best Of its class.
Before consenting to take the presi-
dency of the company, Mr.. Burton made
thorough investigation Of it's affairs
and expressed to the Board his great
satisfaction at the condition in which
