WELL MERITED PROMOTION.
+. n. Hubbard Elected General Manager Of
the ST. Louis Sugar Go.

We have just learned that Mr.. f.
H. Hubbard has been elected Gener-
al manager OF the st. Louis Sugar Co.
of st. Louis, Michigan. Mr.. Hubbard
was formerly assistant manager and
secretary OF that company which po-
sition he resigned to take charge of
the Charlevoix factory. At that time
this factory was a deiunct concern,
but through his influence sufficient
capital was secured to rehabilitate and
put it in operation.
Owing to a succession OF unfayora-
BILE seasons and consequent small beet
crops the result has not been all
that could be wished for, but much
credit is due to him for what success
has been attained in overcoming the
difficulties incident to the unfavorable
conditions
Mr.. Hubbard has the universal re-
spect and confidence of the people of
the town and the farmers in particu-
lar all OF whom regret that he is to
leave Charlevoix
We understand that he will not
take charge at st. Louis until next
spring, but will i'm the mean time oc-
cupy the position of sugar salesman
and assistant manager
For the present Mrs Hubbard and
children will remain with us and we
are pleased to know that they expect
to spend their summer vacations in
CbarTevoix the Reautifu1
Mr.. Hubbard and his estimable wife
and two beautiful daughters will leave

wish them success and happiness
