2hcrr1a. eurC1l @ttivities his life
work. he attended and graduated
from the Philad slphia College OF
Pharmacy. Returning TO Wheel
ing he established himself in the
retail drug business on the South
Side. Soon his establishment had
won more than a local reputation,
and the business grew at giant
strides. Mr.. Coleman's aptitude
for and enthusiasm in his work
have always been notable. AS a
bacteriologist he soon won fame
and his work along this line has
become extensive. Grouping
around him several young men
of ability. he soon had his plans
arranged for extending the bust
ness, with the result that two up
town stores were established. and
have been conducted with unusual
success. The establishment at
the corner OF Sixteenth and Mar
ket streets is one OF the show"
places Of the town. where visitors
see one of Wheeling's elite drug
stores. Mr.. Coleman ranks as
one OF the highly successful men
OF the city. and ne has often been
suggested for public office. but
heretofore always resisted sue
cessfully the opportunities OF his
friends. He is a staunch Demo
crat. He is a valued member of
the St. AlphOnsus church, and OF
the Knights OF Columbus. Carroll

=. O. f. He is active in otter
organizations. as we'll. and has eX-
tensive investments in some OF
Wheeling's many corporations.
All in all. Mr.. Coleman's career

a fit pattern for youthful and am
bilious Wheelingites.
