Progressive Business Men and Civic-Mind- ed Citizens of Salt Lake City This department has been worked up as a reflection of public opinion. No man has written of himself or his business, all articles having been compiled by a Bulletin representative as he saw conditions. These men are all leaders in their lines of endeavor, and the cooperation of those citizens of Salt Lake City who helped to make this department possible is sincerely appreciated by the publishers of the Bingham Bulletin. elude Messers. Rudy Orlob, E. G. Aeutter and Frank W. Squires, ' the executive heads of the Metals i Supply Co. Inc., the Mountain f States Rubber Co. Inc., and the Industrial Supply Co. Inc., whose outstanding knowledge of their : business backed up by their many ' years of experience, has brought r them to the forefront in their ! particular field. i They deserve a great deal of ' credit for their success in both business and civic activities. ' Their main interests have always ' been devoted to the welfare and building up of a greater Salt Lake City and they have con-tribut- ed more than their share towards that end. Orlob, Agutter and Squires are wholly deserving of our sincere praise and these few words of commendation are but a just re-cognition for the many activities they have conducted on behalf of the general welfare of the community. We trust they shall continue to serve Salt Lake City and vicinity foromany years. A. L. HEUSTED and E. F. MONTAGUE The true value of a citizen Is not gauged by his or her person-al success. But rather by the manner in which they share that success by their contributions to the community in which they live. A city grows and flourishes according to the number of pub-lic spirited citizens who compose its population. A. L. Heusted and E. F. Mon-tague, executive heads of the tailoring firm of Heusted & Montague Inc. are two of those men who have given much tow-ard the development of Salt Lake City and its environs. They have turned their personal success in the business field to the advan-- ! tage of the people as a whole and have accomplished much towards making their city a better place in which to live. Heusted and Montague's thor-ough knowledge of every phase of the tailoring business has raised them to positions of lead-ership in their field of activities and gained for them recognition as two of the city's more progres- - sive business men. We compli-ment A. L. Heusted and E. F. Montague in this Salt Lake City review and wish to offer them this small evidence of public es-teem.

Mr. Showell probably wide a circle of friends other man we could a cause he is iust naturallv Vm. F. KOCH Tn mentioning some of thos men who are taking a progretshs part in the evolution of business and civic life of Sal would be censorec r nkP . fHed to include Mr. Wm F Koch, mgr. of the Hercuie. PZdKo?h is that solid type oi i citizen whose fairness and friend- - and sincere desire :tc.be o service are accountable for a large measure of his success. As time goes on his personal nter ests have become more closely interwoven with the business and civic affairs of the city. As a re-sult he has, quite naturally, be-come accepted as a man who car, be called upon and who will cheerfully do his part to further the development of those com-munity activities to which he is best fitted to lend assistance. Wm. F. Koch has, by the con-duct of his business and his at-tention to civic affairs, earned the friendship and good will ol his fellow citizens. He is to be complimented for his activities and we only express the desire of his many friends and associates in wishing him continued success. o MARVIN J. and STEWART L. HERMAN In every community there are a number of citizens who can be pointed out as having taken a three fold part in the onward pro-gress of their city. Two well-know- n business men of Salt Lake City who belong in this category are Marvin J. and Stewart L. Herman, owners and operators of the firm Herman Brothers & Co. Their leadership in their line of business is recognized through-out this entire district. And their furtherance of civic activities and support of those organizations, whose main objectives are direct-ed along lines of civic betterment is well known to their immedi-ate associates. The Herman Brothers are men who are equally liked and re-spected by their intimate friends, their associates and their em-ployees. They are loyal to the community, thankful for their success in business and have shown their appreciation by their contributions to various civic movements of benefit to the city. We congratulate Marvin and Stewart Herman for being good citizens, progressive business men and boosters of their home town. o J. A. KELLER One of the better informed in-surance executives of Salt Lake City is Mr. J. A. Keller, president of the Great Mutual Life Insur-anc- e Co. of America. Mr. Keller has been perform-ing an essential service for the people of this district over a per-iod of years and during that time has made a great many friends both for himself and the Great Mutual Life Insurance Co. He has contributed consider-able of his time and energy to the growth and progress of Salt Lake City and this district and has been content to take his re-ward in the quiet knowledge of a work well done and the re-spect and admiration of his many friends. The value of such a man to his city and the surrounding terri-tory can not be over estimated. His willingness to perform in the interest of the people as' a whole is one of his most admirable characteristics and he has often made personal sacrifices in order to contribute to the general wel-fare. We congratulate J. A. Keller on his splendid reputation and wish for him a continued success-ful career as a leader in the in-surance field in his district. O DAVID SMITH To those progressive business men who have also taken a part in civic affairs we owe a debt of gratitude that we find difficult to pay. However, we can do so In part by publicly acknowledging their many services and we take this opportunity to pay a brief tribute to Mr. David Smith, mgr. of the wholesale produce firm of) Growers Market Co. In doing so we express the sentiments and feelings of not only the commu-nity but also of those people who have been actively associated with him in business or civic af-fairs. Mr. Smith's time is almost wholly occupied by hi3 own af-fairs. Yet there has never been an occasion when he has been called upon by the people of prominence which it enjoys at present. One of the men to whom we , wish to call the attention of our ; readers is Mr. Harold Standing, operator of the Glaus French Pastry Shop, and a business man who has never spared himself in his aggressive march forward and one whose competitors respect as much as do all others with whom he comes In contact. Harold Standing Is at all times conscious of his civic responsi-bilities and may be depended upon to meet In every detail the many opportunities which pre-sent themselves to be of service to his city. Mr. Standing's re-cord of achievement is one of which he may well be proud. His value to his city and this district is an established fact and we hasten to give him the credit which is justly due. o ROY GRANT Every progressive, successful business man in Salt Lake City contributes in some manner to the growth and progress of the city. And a man who is always willing to do his bit in both busi-ness and civic activities is Mr. Roy Grant, district mgr. 'of the Armco Drainage & Metal Pro-duct Co. Inc., manufacturers of all types of pipe, irrigation equip-ment, and steel buildings. The prominent part that the Armco Drainage & Metal Pro-ducts Co. is playing in the busi-ness and rural life of Salt Lake City and vicinity, mirrors the progressiveness and ability of such men as he. He has also at all times been steadfast in his devotion to the city and the sur-rounding country and on many occasions has lent his support to the successful promotion of meri-toro- us civic" projects. Salt Lake City and this district are fortunate" to have such men as Roy Grant in a position of responsibility and service and this newspaper is merely reflect-ing public opinion in paying this brief tribute to one of the city's more progressive business men. , O r A r trmr vices to the people of the com-munity shall be dependable. Edgar and Edwards have never been known to inject themselves into a situation for the mere pur-pos- e of gaining publicity. How-eve- r they proccea in a calm, un-ostentatious manner, and accom-plish their objectives with a quiet dignity. We do not hesitate to recom-mend Roy Edgar and Bill Ed-wards to our friends as good ex-amples of the more progressive type of business people who have aided in the growth and develop-ment of Salt Lake City and the surrounding couontry, LYNN and CLYDE GOODFELLOW Due to the efforts of a group of wide awake business and pro-fessional men Salt Lake City has attained a dominant position in the commercial life of this sec-tion of the state. Two of the men who have justly earned credit for being progressive members of that group are Lynn Goodfellow, owner of Goodfellows Upholstery Shop, and Clyde Goodfellow who is associated with Lynn in the operation of the business. It is because of the successful operation of such businesses as theirs that Salt Lake City has earned the reputation of being one of the more progressive com-munities in this district. The Goodfellows are men who have been conspicuously success-ful in spite of the fact that they have often neglected their own affairs to devote a part of their time and efforts to the successful promotion of Borne civic project. It- - is considered a privilege to include Lynn and Clyde Good-fellow in this Salt Lake City re-view and to publicly give them credit for their success in busi-ness and for their many contri-butions to the general welfare of their city. O WALTER WALLACE Generally speaking, civic pride is one of those things that goes hand in hand with success, be-cause a man must have been suc- - cause of his willingness to aid community activities. His help along these lines has made of C. W. Gilner a fine ex-ample of the type of man we all appreciate. We congratulate and extend to him, on behalf of all citizens interested in better busi-ness and civic progress, sincere appreciation for his contributions to the general welfare of Salt Lake City and vicinity. O SHIRREL "SHAG" JENSEN Logically a man who has earn-ed the reputation of being one of Salt Lake City's more progres-sive automobile dealers, would, in doing so, have earned the friendship 'and good will of a great many people throughout this entire district. A man who justly deserves that distinction is modest, efficient, friendly Shirrel "Shag" Jensen, mgr. of the Shag Jensen Auto Sales Co. Mr. Jensen is the type of man who would be an asset to any community, not only because the successful conduct of his business plays a definite part in the gen-eral civic scheme; but because the ultimate measure of his value to his city and this district lies in the fact that he is untiringly zealous and remarkably success-ful in the promotion of civic pro-gress. It would be hard to estimate the actual dollars and cents value of men like this to their commu-nity. We congratulate Salt Lake City for numbering among its more progressive citizens such a man as Shag Jensen and we also express the wish that he will en-joy many more years of success and prosperity. O BURL HERMANSON It is no coincidence that more frequently than not the people who take a progressive part in the civic and business life of their city are the same ones who are successful in con-ducting their own private affairs. In connection with the foregoing statewent we wish to mention and pay tribute to Mr. Burl Her-mans-of the Gray Floral Co. THOMAS J. HOLLAND One of the more progressive business men of Salt Lake City and a man who deserves the re-spect and good will of a great many residents of the city, is capable, friendly Mr. Thomas J. Holland, general mgr. of the Glen Bros. Music Co., whose wide knowledge and long experi-ence in the music business has raised him to a position of prom-inence in his line. It is because of this that the Glen Bros. Music Co. has earned a reputation for reliability sec-ond to none. Mr. Holland is also civic mind-ed and has always been ready to contribute his time and energy to any plan which promises to benefit the entire district. And the people of Salt Lake City may regard with particular satisfac-tion the many services which he has performed for the communi-ty in the interest of progress and civic betterment. We urge our readers to look to Mr. Holland as a progressive business man of whom we may be proud. His devotion to his city has been constant and his achievements well merited. We wish for him further success. ' O LOUIS HUMPHRIES & SONS Mr. Louis E. Humphries and his sons Ellis and Bert, owners and operators of the used car firm of Humphries & Sons, are three of those progressive used car dealers of Salt Lake City who have consistently forged ahead in business. They have also put their shoulder to the wheels of civic progress whenever help is needed in furthering enterprises promoted for the general welfare of the community. The Humphries were never men given to wishful thinking. Iheir methods are those of di- rect action and whether the prob- lem at hand is one concerning their own business or that of a civic nature, they attack it with optimism and a vigorous enthus-ing Add this their acknowl-edged business ability and their keen sense of values and it is easily understood why they are almost invariably successful in business or other matters. call the attention of our readers tir?e? ?'rth while LUlsi Ellis and Bert wW& a2d t0 Day thm a slSLhtfScrvedJ tribute fr their od.X frw?d business meth-the- v hJ? un!lfish interest shown in Public wel- - wel"1ians thenmnryoing tributet0 som of and nrn pro.ressive business m ih umvf.rsities and ss aCbhii itstltutions, whose tedHegenerou,ainvho.uhas contb-u- y and the community for of a man who makes frie almost everybody and is to conduct himself in manner as to deserve tb and good will of all wh him.

He may be t upon and his services to Ele are too many in na described here. It is to say that we consider Showell an asset to the nity and a progressive man of whom his city proud. O ROBERT A. CLE! Salt Lake" City has its place of importance out the intermountain sb because of the efforts o! ing business and prc men who have developec tural resources, or in so: ner extended the trade ages of the locality.

Thus he has frequently sacrificed his per-sonal interests to promote some worthy cause. Because of this David Smith has proven himself to be a good citizen of whom his city and this district have every reason to feel justly proud. O E. J. HEISER Mr, E. J. Heiser, owner and operator of the Heiser Car Co., has a well earned reputation for his progressiveness in the auto-mobile business because he has consistently forged ahead in his business never letting up in his efforts to make the service his company renders to the people more valuable. This invariable policy ha3 made the Heiser Car Co., outstanding in its field, a fact that is well known to the public in the Salt Lake City area. But Mr. Heiser has accomp-lished much more than just mak-ing a success of his automobile business and private affairs and we take this opportunity to pay tribute to him for devoting what time he could spare to the gen-eral welfare, not only of his city but of this entire district as well. It is such men as he who are both successful in business and appreciative of their civic obli-gations that are deserving of re-cognition. We take pleasure in publicly giving E. J. Heiser the credit for his accomplishments which his friends and associates have so long accorded him. o RICflARD SHELANDER It is because of the unfailing optimism and faith which he so consistently displays toward the future of Salt Lake City and vic-inity that we are prompted to call the particular attention of our readers to the fine service which Mr. Richard Shelander, district mgr. of the Greyhound Bus Lines, performs in the suc-cessful conduct of his business. Mr. Shelander is an aggressive and resourceful personality whose progressive policies have earned for him a widespread re-putation as a business man of more than average ability; and his apparent willingness to de-vote some cf that ability to the promotion of civic activities fur-ther enhances his value to the city. The safety and efficiency of the operations of the Greyhound Bus Lines, reflecting as it does the executive ability of this man, has ' earned for the company a well deserved popularity among the people they serve. We are glad to give Dick Shelander the credit he so well deserves for his achievements and to wish for him a continued successful ca- - ; reer as one of Salt Lake City's more progressive businses men. i HAROLD STANDING Our issue today proposes to i call the attention of our readers ' to some of those progressive and civic minded people" who have contributed their share of time i and energy to the building up of i Salt Lake City and the surround- - ing territory to the position of 1 IMA A I1UU1UXN In critical times such as these, it takes business men of more than average ability to carry on their operations successfully. In making this statement the man we have in mind is Mr. Max Horton, owner and operator of Horton's Record Bar, who fea-ture a large selection of used phonograph records. He has a wide circle of personal friends and customers scattered through-out this- - entire district many of whom reside in our own commu-nity. His contagious optimism and freely expressed belief in the assured future prosperity of the people of Salt Lake City its trad-ing area are characteristics which are to be appreciated in a pro-gressive business man. He has al-ways taken an interest in com-munity affairs and has shown a willingness to shoulder his share of the civic load. It is men like Max Horton who, because of the successful conduct of their business and private af-fairs and their willingness to contribute to the public good, are wholly deserving of a few words of commendation. It is a preasure to pay him this brief tribute. P., W. W. OSBORNE Progressiveness coupled with ability, always a praiseworthy feature in the passing scene of any community s daily life, is to be duly appreciated. In full reali-zation of this and in recognition of the splendid personality which gives impetus to the personal success in his case, many resi-dents and business people of Salt Lake City and our own commu-nity, regard Mr. W. W. Osborne, the executive head of the Grant Apparel Manufacturing Co. of Utah, as a true asset to his city and this district. - Mr. Osborne is keeping his company in the forefront at all times, both in business and civic activities and has maintained a position of leadership in his field of endeavor. Capable and ener-getic in the management of the business he has come to be re-cognized as one of the city's more progressive business men.- - What W. W. Osborne and his company have accomplished in the past, both in business and civic activities, is the best indi-cation of what may be expected of them in the future. He has our admiration and best wishes for continued success. O ROY EDGAR and BILL EDWARDS Mr. Roy Edgar and Mr. Bill Edwards, well known produce dealers and executive heads of the E & E Produce Co., are two of those progressive type of citi-zens upon whom the community depends a great deal for leader-ship in business and other mat-ters. They- have, in the past, and no doubt will continue in the fu-ture, to give more than their share of time and energy for the welfare of others than themselv-es. They are the kind of people who make friends, and friend- - ships once formed by them are sever broken by an unfriendly : ict on their part; and they spare io effort in order that their ser- - cessful to fully appreciate the advantages that were afforded him by the community in which he lives. Mr. Walter Wallace, district mgr. of thetB. F. Goodrich Co., is one of those progressive busi-nessmen of Salt Lake City who has shown his appreciation for his success by his attention to civic matters. His willingness to become a cog in the wheel of community progress, when ever united effort is needed to put over some movement or project advanced for the good of his city, has always been taken for grant-ed. Mr. Wallace's quiet assumption of responsibility, not only in con-nection with his own business af-fairs but in regard to other mat-ters as well, has very often lent a feeling of confidence to others interested in the same move-ments. In complimenting Walter Wal-lace upon his leading position in the community we do no more than express the admiration and respect of his many friends and associates. O P. EUGENE MOSS Successful business and pro-fessional men, as a general rule, show their appreciation for their success by their often repeated demonstrations of civic pride. This is a fortunate fact, other-wise a city would be lacking in that progressive element which advocates and develops various projects of a civic nature, which are indicative of a progressive community." Mr. P. Eugene Moss, vice pres. and district mgr. of the Salt Lake City office for the Goodall Rub-ber Co., of California, who serve the mining interest throughout the intermountain states area on industrial-rubber- , is a man who has never failed to lend a hand when it comes his turn to help on some worthy project promoted for the general betterment of Salt Lake City and the adjacent ter-ritory. Mr. Moss takes a genuine plea-sure in this methdd of showing his appreciation for his success and in doing so recognizes his civic responsibilities to the home community. It is such men as Eugene Moss who become acknowledged lead-ers in both business and civic activities and we compliment him for having attained that position in his city. C. W. GILNER It is appropriate that we in-clude in this review of progres-sive Salt Lake City business men Mr. C. W. Gilner, managing own-er of Gilner's, well known Salt Lake dealers in gas and electrical appliances. He not only has the reputation of being progressive but also the added one of being a willing supporter of many com-munity affairs. Aside from his business ac-tivities Mr. Gilner has always shown an interest in the civic betterment and progress of his city and has backed up his in-terest by his contributions to many projects which have bene-fitted the city and the surround-ing area. He is a good and loyal i citizen and the full measure of j tiis loyalty is most apparent be-- t Mr. nermanson nas proved very ably that he is a florist of more than average ability, for it is largely due to his progressive methods coupled with his sound and practical ideas that his flow-er shop and floral service holds its high position in the public's opinion in this area. He has made his business a "hobby" with the result that he is today one of the more popular florists in Salt Lake City, giving to his patrons an excellence of artistic service sel-dom equaled. It is true also that Burl Her-mans-does his share toward community improvement and has given freely of his time and en-ergy to the promotion of those enterprises which have benefited the city at large. We are glad to voice our praise of a man who is successful in his own business and who also has time to give to com-munity development. O W. PEACOCK Mr. W. Peacock, mgr. of the Grand Union Tea Co., has won the universal respect and good will of the people of Salt Lake City and the surrounding coun-try for the progressive manner in which he has kept his com-pany in the forefront of the busi-ness life of this entire district. Also for the efficient and friend-ly willingness he has displayed in accepting his share of respon-sibility in aiding civic projects. Mr. Peacock, is not the kind of a man who makes himself con-spicuous by the manner in which he conducts himself, either in business or other matters. Yet his quiet reserve and air of con-fidence mark him as a man of sound judgment whose opinions and advice are sought after and listened to with respect. We compliment Mr. Peacock for his successful management of the Grand Union Tea Co., also for his constructive advice and help on those civic affairs in which he has found time to in-terest himself. He is a man whom many are proud to call friend. O R. A. GOULD In compiling this review of progressive Salt Lake City busi-ness people, we have endeavored to select those citizens who, by the manner in which they have conducted themselves and their businesses, have caused the pub-lic to spot in them, certain quali-ties over and above the average. Such a man is Mr. R. A. Gould, owner and operator of the R. A. Gould Tank Lines, who is well known to many of our readers because he has many friends and associates in this area. Mr. Gould's main interests have not been solely confined to his gasoline transportation business and private affairs, but have also included his contributions, in one form or another to those projects of a civic nature which come within the scope of his activities. He never neglects these obliga-tions. R. A. Gould is a man of wide experience whose exploits in the business and civic life of Salt Lake City and vicinity merit more than passing attention and the writer is privileged to pay this brief tribute to a man who well deserves more credit than is ac-corded him here. FRANK SPRINGMAN Mr. Frank Springman, owner and mgr. of Frank's Automotive Service, is one of those progress-siv- e garage operators and busi-ness men who has always done his bit to maintain the prestige of Salt Lake City as a leading metropolis of this section of the state. He has always worked for the development of the city and his many services are worthy of sincere appreciation. Mr. Springman has proven himself worthy of extended men-tion and these few words are not really adequate recognition for the many services which he has performed in the promotion of public welfare. His well earned success as a business man is easily understood, knowing as the people do his widespread re-putation for the honesty which characterizes all of his business dealings. It is a combination of technical knowledge, mechanical skill and business ability which has ele-vated Mr. Springman to a posi- tion of leadership in his line. He is completely aware of his responsibilities and is wideawake to the many opportunities for service and always ready and willing to lend his support to any project which promises to bene-fit the community as a whole. We compliment Frank Spring-ma- n on his accomplishments and sincerely wish for his continued success. O . Wm. R. JOHNSON In singling out some of the more progressive business and professional men of Salt Lake City we would be censored ?thould we fail to include Mr. Wm. R. Johnson, owner and op- erator of the Fleet Service & Supply Co., who service and supply steam cleaning plants and equipment Jo Garages, Service Stations, and building cleaners. He is a man who has never spared himself in his participa- tion in both the business and civic activities of his city Mr. Johnson has always been conscious of his civic responsi- bilities and ready and willing to meet in every detail those opnor-uniti- es which come to his atten- tion to further civic enterprise He may well be proud of his achievements along these lines BUI Johnson also deserves a great deal of credit for hon- - wLhnh TCesslul nner in i ss affairs.
