Made General Manager.

He was elected general manager Of
the company in 1901, and through
his influence and the confidence of
the directors in his judgement, the
headquarters Of the company were
moved from New York to Atlanta.
This move brought more than 1000
new people to the city, and was Of
the greatest benefit to local merch-
ants by reason Of the large payroll
disbursed every month. In 1903 the
directors elected Cononel Gentry u
member of the board of directors and
vice president Of the company and
he continued as general manager. The
growth of the business under his dir
ection has been gratifying and has
won him high recognition in the tele-
phone world. When he was elected
general manager in 1901 there were
sixty exchanges and about $4,000 sta
tions, and only small toll line mile
age. Today the Southern Bell COM
pany has 225 exchanges more than
100000 stations, 1882 miles Of toll
line, 23,1SO miles of toll metallic
eircuit and is growing more rapidly
than ever before. The investment OF
new money amounts to more than
$1O,O0O,000.
Colonel Gentry holds the following
offices in other telephone companies
in addition to the vice presidency Of
the Southern Bell Telephone and
Telegraph company.
President of the Asheville Tele- !
phone and Telegraph company, with
headquarters in Asheville, n. c.;
president Of the Virginia and Ten

popular throughout the south and is
regarded as one of the ablest tele-
phone officials in the country. He has
perhaps done mere than any one man
to develop the telephone interests Of
the south and has been instrumental
in bringing large sums Of capital into
this section. He had faith in the fu-
ture of the south and has had the
satisfaction of seeing his confidence
justified by the marvellous develop
ment in all lines during the past few
years.
Colonel Gentry is a native Of Cor
louisville, Va, and began his career
with the Southern Bell Telephone and
Telegraph company 25 years ago as
Of the exchanges at Alexan-
dria, Va. He came here as manager
Of the Atlanta exchange in 1884, just
% years ago. He studied the tele-
phone business and saw the future
before it in the south. He gained his
knowledge by experience.
Eight years after he came to At
lanta he was appointed assistant dis
trict superintendent Of the division
Georgia, Alabama, South
Carolina and Florida. In 1897 he was
appointed general superintendent Of
construction, and had charge of all
