Business leeeue Secretary Ass:ves.

Mr.. George w. Carter, the new
Secretary of the Greenwood Business
League, has arrived from Union City,
Tenn, and assumed charge of his
duties. Mr. Car ter is a young man
of splendid business qualifications,
extensive experience in boosting,
and comes to our city very highly
recommended in every respect. We
most cordially welcome him to the
Queen City of the Delta, and take
pleasure in reproducing the follow
ing extracts from the Union City
Commercial of last week concerning
him:
Geo. W. Carter has accepted
position as Secretary of Greenwood,
Miss, Busine IS League. Mr. Carter
has been taking the matter under
advisement for some time. He at
first declined to accept, but the
business men of Greenwood brought
further pressure to bear until he
yielded to the offer. Mr.. Carter is
ore of the livest wires in Union City.
He is full of enthusiasm and optim-
ism, but not so much so that he
cannot see the business side of the
question. He has made success of
his private business affairs. He has
nice improved home in Union City,
a family of the highest type of
citizens, and he takes the greatest
pride in his home surroundings and
family fireside. Greenwood gains
good citizens and Union City loses,
but we bid them God speed and
health and happiness.
