In conversation with a number OF
travelling men in Boone last week
found them gloomy over the loss from
their ranks of two of their number, J.
w. Van Deveer and o. NJ Boyles. 1t
seems that every Monday for years 1t
has been customary for eight of the
grocery statesmen making Boone, to
meet at a certain hotel for dinner
They have a table by themselves where
they have spent many a happy hour
talking over the times while eating
and smoking. But last Monday 1t is
reported by one of them that it was the
saddest Mondays dinner they have
had for years.
w. J. Van Deveer. one of the best
known travelling men in Iowa, after
forty years in the harness for two of
the leading grocery firms in Iowa, has
retired to take charge of the Fl. c. NJ.
A. of Marshalltown, the position of
secretary and treasurer, to which he
was elected last year. Perhaps no
one travelling in Iowa will be missed
more by everybody than our friend
"Van.' He is known from one end
of the state to the other, and but to
know him is to surely be his friend.
For years he has taken the early NOR
ming train from our city to Boone,
Were he ever late, even the porter
would ask: Look and see If Van Is
not coming, we must not go without
him." You would never hear of any
travelling man or his family in need,
but you would always find Vans name
at the head of the list. He never was
too tired or too busy but what he
could go out of his way to help
brother traveller. While we have lost
him from our number as brother
traveller, we feel that he will be of
more help to us as secretary of the
H. C. M. A., than as salesman.
