says of Byron King: ga genius, a
man of highest rank in his profess
sion, a king of the platform John
Temple Graves: 81 do not know
that l ever met one who impressed
me more profoundly as a teacher
of ~oratory and elocution, or illus

gifts and attachments the value of
his methods, than Byron w. King,

In referring to Geo. w. Clark
son, who was last week elected
President of the Grand Avenue
Bank, st. Louis, last Saturdays
st. Louis Times says; president
Clarkson is a typical example of
the American self-made man. A
native of Arcadia, Mo-, he started
his career without a dollar. Three
years of his educational training
we're obtained at the Military
Academy, Mexico, Mo-, and one
year at Manual Training School,
st. Louis. Mr.. Clarkson was the
founder and president of the Bis
marck Milling Company, at Bis.
marck, Mo-, one of the most sue
cessful institutions of Southeast
Missouri. When the Alsop Pro-
cess Company began steps toward
organization, in 1904, Mr.. Clarkson
affiliated with this corporation as
its confidential representative, and
has since figured in many import
ant transactions relating to the
success of that organization. He
has been a stockholder in the
Grand Avenue Bank for some time
and upon the death of F. A. Drew
was made vice-president. His bus
mess ability in winning new &C.
counts, added to his sterling integ.
rity and progressive spirit, made
him the logical man for presi.
