Expert in His Line Of Work.


c. Fl. Rogers was born in Topsham
in 1864. He lived on the farm, re-
naming there until about 20 years old,
during which time he received COM
mon school education and, showing
unusual ability in handling the pen
and having a strong desire for art and
fine work;-he devoted. considerable time
to pen and fine art work. Becoming
an expert in this line, and deciding
that the farm was no place for him, he
entered the mercantile business. This
not being in accord with his ambitions
and ability he decided to take up me-
chanical work, as well as art, and he
entered the employ of the Central Yer
mont Railway company at st. Adams,
under the superintendent of motive
power, where he remained Ave years,
| then deciding to 60 west and there
was employed as machinist and BIZ
| cycle expert for seven years. Then de-
Gliding to take up photography, he mas
tered this art in all its branches, be
connected with the Colony Camera
coming an expert at posing, lighting,
retouching, etc, afterward becoming
company in the manufacture of 'am-
eras and Photographic goods. Besides
being an expert machinist, tool maker,
cabinet maker, photographer, sign
painter. ornamental card writer and
automatic shading pen letterer, he has
also gained quite a reputation AS an
inventor, having invented several very
ingenious articles and devices of much
merit.
Mr.. Rogers posses wonderful abll

tools. To-day he ranks among the
most expert machinists and mechanics
