LOUIS ANDERSON Recognized as one of better in-formed jewelry engravers, and business men of Salt Lake City, Mr. J. Louis Anderson performs a real service for the people of his city and this district and his many contributions to civic bet-terment are too well known to require repetition in these col-umns. His personal success as an engraver has been turned to the advantage of his fellow citizens and he is always ready to assist any enterprise which promises to advance the welfare of the community. Mr. Anderson is deserving of raise and this small tribute is Cut a just recognition for the many services which he has per-formed in the way of both busi-ness and civic activities. His reputation for the successful con-duct of his business affairs is no greater than his reputation for the honest practices which char-acterize his every transaction. We congratulate Louis Ander-son, on his splendid record and trust that he shall continue to serve the people of Salt Lake City and vicinity. his city, has always been taken for granted. Mr. Winner's quiet assumption of responsibility, not only in connection with his own business but in regard to other matters as well, has very often lent a feel-ing of confidence to others inter-ested in the same movements. In complimenting Fred Winner upon his leading position in the community we do no more than express the admiration and re-spect of his many friends and associates. O ROBERT T. CHEGGENY and (J. D. SEGERSTEDT Due to the efforts of a group of wide-awak- e business and pro-fessional men the city of Salt Lake has attained a dominant position in the commercial life of this section of the state. Two of the men who have justly earn-ed credit for being progressive members of that group are Mr. Robert T .Cheggeny and G. U. Segerstedt of the Artistic Light-ing Studio. It is because of the successful operation of such businesses as theirs that Salt Lake Citv has GEORGE T. SNELL 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. George T. Snell, Mgr. of the Ambassador Athletic Club, is a man who has never failed to lend a hand when it comes his turn to help on some worthy Eroject promoted for the general of Salt Lake City and the adjacent territory. Mr. Snell takes a genuine plea-sure in this method of showing his appreciation for his success in the management of the Ath-letic Club, and in doing so recog-nizes his civic responsibilities to the home community. It is such men as George Snell who become acknowledged lead-ers in both business and civic activities and we compliment him for having attained that position in his city. MORRIS ARONOVICH Logically a man who has earn-ed the reputation of being one of Salt Lake City's largest buy-ers and sellers of furniture 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 Morris Aronovich, executive head of the American Furniture Ex-change. Mr. Aronovich is the type of a man who would be an asset to any community, not only because the successful conduct of his business plays a definite part in the general civic scheme; but because the ultimate measure of his value to his city and this dis-trict lies in the fact that he is un- - JAMES AOKI Every progressive, successful business man in Salt Lake Citv contributes in some manner tc the growth and progress of the city. And a man who is alwav willing to do his bit in both busi- ness nd civic activities is Mr James Aoki mgr. of the Aoki Brothers Produce Co., who is well known and has many friends throughout this entire district. The prominent part that the Aoki Brothers Produce Co., is playing in the business and civic life of Salt Lake City and vic-inity, 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 surrounding country and on many occasions has lent his support to the successful pro- motion of meritorious civic pro-jects. Salt Lake City and this district are fortunate to have such men as James Aoki 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.

Cheggeny and Segerstedt are men who have been conspicuous-ly successful 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 some civic project. It is considered a privilege to include Robert Cheggeny and G. D. Segerstedt in this Salt Lake Citv review and to pubjicly give them credit for their success in business and for their many con-tributions to the general welfare of their city. ROBERT B. ALLEN In singling out some of the more progressive business and professional men of Salt Lake City, we would be censored should we fail to include Mr. Robert B. Allen, executive head of the Allen Steel Co. He is a man who has never spared him-self in his participation in both the business and civic activities of his city. Mr. Allen has always been con-scious of his civic responsibilities and ready and willing to meet in every detail those opportunities which come to his attention to further civic enterprise. He may well be proud of his achieve-ments along these lines. Bob Allen also deserves a great deal of credit for the honest and successful manner in which he has conducted his business af-fairs. He is a friendly, likeable peronality whose sincere desire to be of service has gained for him a host of friends and ac-quaintances in and around Salt Lake City, who would if given the opportunity, join us in wish-ing him many more years of con-tinued success. - GRACE K. IIEBBELER Our issue today proposes to call the attenton of our readers to some of those progressive and civic-minde- d people who have contributed their share of time and energy to the building up of Salt Lake City and the surround-ing territory to the position of prominence which it enjoys at present. One individual to who we wish to call the attention of our read-ers is Mrs. Grace K. Hebbeler, Mgr. of the American Beauty Products Co., who has a thorough knowledge of the cosmetics busi-ness and is a business woman who has never spared herself in her aggressive march forward and one whose competitors re-spect as much as do all others with whom she comes in contact. Grace Hebbeler is at all times conscious of her 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 her city. 'Mrs. Hebbeler's re-cord of achievement is one of which she may well be proud. Her value to her city and this district is an established fact and we hasten to give her the credit which is justly due. tinngly zealous and remarkably successful in the promotion of civic progress. It would be hard to estimate the actual dollars-and-cen- ts 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 Morris Aronovich and we also express the wish that he will enjoy many more years of success and proosperity. STANTON PECK When a man gains recognition in the business and civic life of his city for the progressive and straightforward manner in which he has managed his business af-fairs, he is to be complimented for his achievements. And in this instance the man we have in mind is also deserving of praise for his contributions to the growth and progress of his city. We refer to Mr. Stanton Peck, President of the Allsteel Office Supply Co., a progressive and civic-minde- d business man who is regarded with respect and admiration by a great many residents of Salt Lake City and the surrounding country. Mr. Peck can always be inclu-ded in that group of men who are ever ready to devote a part of IL J. SORENSON We wish in this edition to pay tribute to Mr. H. J. Sorenson, mgr. of the American Mill & Fixture Co., for his many ser-vices to Salt Lake City, and his splendid record of achievement in the business life of the city. Mr. Sorenson probably has as wide a circle of friends as any other man we could name because he is just naturally the kind of a man who makes friends with al-most everybody and is at pains to conduct himself in such a man-ner as to deserve the respect and good will of all who know him. A city is fortunate in being able to number among its more pro-gressive citizens Business men of this type. He is also always ready and willing to lend his support to the promotion of any project which promises to benefit this entire district. He may be depended upon and his services to the peo-ple are too many in number to be describedjhere. It is sufficient to say that we consider H. J. Soren-son an asset to the community and a progressive business man of who his city may be proud. o MRS. LEWIS HEMINGWAY j J.B. PEPPER Lmpiling this review of fesive Salt Lake City busi-jtjpl- e, we have endeavored those citizens who, by i ffinner in which they have jt.,d themselves and their 5es, have caused the pub- - te ;jpot in them, certain quali- - jftr and above the average. jman is Mr. J.

C. NELSON Recognized as an authority on building and loan problems and ; real estate values, Mr. S. C. I ?Sn' dl5,trict mSr of the Allied ' Building Credits Co, Inc., who ' are doing their part toward our Present building program bv handling the F. H. A. title No. 1 l remodeling loan. Mr. Nelson merits a brief tribute in this re-view of progressive Salt Lake nuatsy business men. He not only the reputation of being pro-gressive but also the added one of being a willing supporter of many community affairs. Aside from his business activi-ties Mr. Nelson has always shown an interest in the civic better- ment and progress of his city and has backed up his interests by his contributions to many projects which have benefitted the city and surrounding area. He is a good and loyal citizen and the lull measure of his loyalty is most apparent because of his willingness to aid community activities. His help along these lines has made of S. C. Nelson 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-- JOHN P. JONES Recognized as an authority on Roofing and Insulation problems, Mr. John P. Jones of the Allied Roofing & Insulation Co., has turned his knowledge to the ad-vantage of the people of Salt Lake City and vicinity. More than that Mr. Jones is a man who has always been vitally interest-ed in the civic betterment and progress of the city and has back-ed up his interest by lending assistance, in one form or another to the successful promotion of many things which have bene-fitted the community as a whole. Salt Lake City owes much to such men for their part in making the city the business center of this area. He has always been alert to the many opportunities for ser-vice and more than ready to rec-ognize and accept his share of civic responsibility. Because of these things John Jones has become accepted as a progressive business man who is an asset to both the business and civic life of the city and we trust he will continue for many years to serve the people of his city and the surrounding area in his present capacity. O EDWARD M. ASHTON One of the more progressive real estate men of Salt Lake City and one whose success can part-ly be attributed to a deep in-sight as to the direction in which the city will develop is Mr. Edward M. Ashton, executive head of the real estate company bearing his name. He also has a sound, basic knowledge of real estate values and has turned that knowledge of real estate values to the advantage of the people with whom he does business. His aggressive methods, coupled with his sound and practical ideas, have made the services he rend-ers to the people more valuable and materially contributed to his well earned success. Mr. Ashton is also civic-minde- d and has always shown a cheerful willingness to contribute his share of time and energy to the promotion of community pro-icc- ts It is because of the activities of such progressive business people that Salt Lake City con-tinues, year after year, to show such a healthy growth and ex-pansion both as a residential and industrial city. We are glad to nay tribute to Edward Ashton for the part he is playing in the onward progress of his city. their time and energy to the de-velopment of their home town. It is because of the efforts of such men that, year after year, Salt Lake City continues to grow and prosper and to become an even better place in which to live. It is men like Stanton Peck who have a distinct value to their city and we take pleasure in pay-ing this brief but sincere tribute to him for his accomplishment. FRANK GILLESPIE SR. and JR. Frank Gillespie Sr. and Jr. of the Acme Construction & Supply Co, also the Alum-A-Til- e Sales Co. are two of those progressive type of citizens upon whom the community depends a great deal for leadership in business and other matters. They have, in the past, and no doubt will continue in the future, to give more than their share of time and energy for the welfare of others than themselves. They are the kind of people who make friends, and friendships once formed by them are never broken by an un-friendly act on their part; and they spare no effort in order that their services to the people of the community shall be depend-able. The Gillespies have never been known to inject themselves into a situation for the mere purpose of gaining publicity. However, they proceed in a calm, unosten-tatious manner, and accomplish their objectives with a quiet dig-nity. We do not hesitate to recom-mend Frank Gillespie Sr. and Jr. to our friends as good examples of the more progressive type of business people who have aided in the growth and development of Salt Lake City and the sur-rounding country. Wm. II. ADAMS Sr. & SONS II. P. GANGWER Mr. H. P. Gangwer, mgr. of Armour & Co, dealers in whole-sale meats, is one ol those quiet, unassuming, yet progressive busi-ness men of Salt Lake City who has consistently forged ahead with his company. He also puts his shoulder to the wheels of civic progress whenever help is needed in furthering enterprises promoted for the general better-ment of the community. Mr. Gangwer was never a man who was given to wishful think-ing. His method.3 are those of direct action and whether the problem at hand is one concern-ing his own business or that of a civic nature, he attacks it with optimism and a vigorous enthusi-asm. Add to this his acknowledg-ed business ability and his keen sense of values and it is easily understood why he is almost in-variably successful in business or other matters. We feel that it is our duty to call the attention of our readers to these worth-whil- e characteris-tics of H. P. Gangwer and to pay him a well deserved tribute for his straightforward business me-thods and for the unselfish inter-est he has shown in public wel-fare. J. N. CARTER Mr. J. N. Carter mgr., of the American Foundry & Machine Co, has won th6 universal re-spect and good will of the people of Salt Lake City and surround-ing country for the progressive manner in which he has kept his company in the forefront of the business life of this district. Also for the efficient and friendly willingness he has displayed in accepting his share of responsi-bility in aiding civic projects. Mr. Carter is not the kind of a man who makes himself conspic-uous by the manner in which he conducts himself, either in busi-ness or other matters. Yet his quiet reserve and air of confi-dence mark him as a man of sound judgment, whose opinions and advice, concerning his ness are sought after and listened to with respect. We compliment J. N. Carter for his successful management of the American Foundry & Machine Co, also for his constructive ad-vice and help on those civic af-fairs in which he has found time to interest himself. He is a man whom many are proud to call friend. (Continued on page eight) ' ( D. 0.

A city grows and prospers by reason of the public spirited men and women who take an active interest in the development. Salt Lake City has its share of these progressive and civic-minde- d people and one who is deserving of recognition is friendly, like-able Mrs. Lewis Hemingway, owner of the Airomatic Sheet Metal Works, and President of the Chapman Civic Club. Her business ability, coupled with a sense of obligation to the public and a sincere desire to be of service have been major fac-tors in maintaining the Airomatic Sheet Metal Works in a prom-inent position in the business life of the city. She has not only in her business activities but also in her attention to civic duty as-sumed an active part in commu-nity affairs. Mrs. Hemingway has always been ready and willing to con-tribute her time and energy to the promotion of any project which promises to benefit the community as a whole. She has often sacrificed her personal in-terests to be of assistance to the city. Her efforts are deserving of commendation and support. We congratulate Mrs. Lewis Hemingway on her past success-es and predict that the future will bring her even greater success. O WALDO L. LITTLEFIELD Mr. Waldo L. Littlefield, of the hearing aids firm of Acousticon-Littlefiel- d Co, has a well earned reputation for progressiveness because he has consistently forg-ed 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 has made the Acousticon-Littlefiel- d Co, out-standing in its field, a fact that is well known to the hard of hearing in the Salt Lake City area. But Mr. Littlefield has accom-plished much more than just making a success of his business and private affairs and we take this opportunity to pay tribute to him for devoting what time he could spare to the general welfare, not only of his own 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 recognition. We take pleasure in publicly giving Waldo Littlefield the credit for his accomplish-ments which his friends and as-sociates have so long accorded him. O S. FRESHMAN To serve the public honestly, efficiently and cheerfully is the basic foundation many progres-hiv- e business men of Salt Lake City have found to be the short-est route to success. In making this statement we have in mind Mr. S. Freshman, mgr. of Arden's Dress Shop, leading dealers in Ladies wear. The popularity and patronage enjoyed by this dress shop accentuates the ideals of service as well as good merchan-dise which he has consistently applied in the management of the business. The conduct of such businesses and the people who operate them have done much to make Salt Lake City the business center for many miles around and it is fit-ting that we give credit where credit is due, to such men as Mr. Freshman for his part in the on-ward progress of the city. In do-ing so we merely reiterate the statements of other progressive business and civic minded men of Salt Lake City with whom Mr. Freshman has joined in the promotion of community activi-ties. S. Freshman has earned his success by the method in which he has accepted both civic and business responsibilities and we trust he will continue to prosper. O WESLEY G. HOWELL One of the better informed in-surance executives of Salt Lake City is Mr. Wesley G. HowelJL president of the Allied Mutual Insurance Co. Mr. Howell has been perform-ing an essential service for the people of this district over a per-iod of years and during that time he has made a great many friends both for himself and the Allied Mutual Insurance Co. He has contributed consider-ably 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 respect 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 char-acteristics and he has often made personal sacrifices in order to contribute to the general welfare. We congratulate Wes Howell on his splendid reputation and wish for him a continued success-ful career as a leader in the in-surance field in his district EARL WARD and J. II. GREEN In every community there are a number of citizens who can be pointed out as having taken a three-fol- d part in the. onward progress of their city. Two well known business men of Salt Lake City who belong in this category are Earl Ward and J. H. Green, executive heads of the Acme Lime Products 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 objects, are directed along lines of civic betterment is well known to their immediate associates. Mr. Ward and Mr. Green are men who are equally liked and respected by their intimate friends, their associates and their employees. 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 Earl Ward and J. H. Green for being good citi-zens, progressive business men and boosters of their home town. SEYMOUR HAGEN In paying tribute to some of the more progressive business and professional men of Salt Lake City we would be remiss in our duty should we fail to include Mr. Seymour Hagen, of the As-sociated Dealers Supply Co, a man who has contributed gener-ously to the welfare of his city and the community for many miles around. His civic spirit is evidenced by the many services which he has performed and con-tinues to perform in the interest of the people as a whole. No worthwhile enterprise which promises to benefit the commu-nity escapes his attention. Mr. Hagen is a man of wide acquaintance, whose many friends admire and respect in him those virtues which inspire confidence and promote good feeling. His upright business methods are a credit to his inherent sense of fair play. A community is for-tunate to number among its citi-- , zens a man of this type. We congratulate Seymour Ha-gen on his splendid record of service and trust he shall con-tinue to assist us for many years to come. O FRED N. WINNER Generally speaking, civic pride is one of those things that goes hand-in-han- d with success, be-cause a man must have been suc-cessful to fully appreciate the advantages that were afforded him by the community in which he lives. Mr. Fred N. Winner of the Addressograph-Multigrap- h Sales Agency, is one of those progres-sive business men of Salt Lake City who has shown his appre-ciation for his success by his at-tention to civic matters. His will-ingness to become a cog in the wheel of community progress, whenever united effort is needed to put over some movement or project advanced for the good of Ipprc ,nieht. owners and of Art's Mechanic Ser-Ww- o of those progressive, Mb c, t0. maintain the tge.troPolis of this section nle',They have always Sand the development ot Sorthv Plr many services ot sincere apprecia- - prtrSPnVnd Mr- fate? - Knight themselves worthy ISds ar1Tention and these not really ade-- es S0" for the many fch thev have of pub- - tsa in Vh heir wel1 earned 's easiiv m rePair busi as the Z u,nderstood, know- - t eDutaerPle ,d0 their wide-S- cl Xap fr the honesty i4dgCe0mination of technical Niir L', y whlch has ele-- 1 Position nnn aJnd Mr-- Kght leadership in their 'civic3 cmpletely aware of lSy Si iCmce and always !ponto aX1 to lend their .tuto benefit ?1 which Pm-'le- . community as and 't, comPliment Art ;fcess. n for their continued 'i FORTUNATO ANSELMO Salt Lake City owes much to those progressive citizens, who have taken an active part in the growth and progress of the city and who have helped to make it the business center for this pait of the state. In mentioning some of these men it is only fair to in-clude Mr. Fortunato Anselmo, the ex-Itali- council, and owner of the wholesale imported foods firm bf Anselmo & Co, and he the Genera Merch-andise also operates Utah. Store at Columbw, His outstanding knowledge of the importing business, backed up bv his many years of experience, has brought him to the forefront in his particular field. ot He deserves a great deal credit for his, success in both business and civic activities His main interests have always been devoted to the welfare and bi d-ing up of a greater Salt and he has contributed more than his share to that end. Fortunato Anselmo is who y deserving of our sincere praise and few words of commen-dation are but a just recognition he has for the many activities conducted on behalf of the gen welfare of the community. The honest and successful con-duct of his business affairs is but a reflection of his character We teust he will continue to serve for Salt Lake City and vicinity many years. E. L. JACKSON In mentioning some of those who are taking a progres-sive in the evolution-- of the part business and civic life of San Ke City we would be censoreu failed to include Mr E L General Mgr. of the ArSrong-Engber- g Co who line of paints, Saper, and electrical appli- - anMr' Jackson is that solid type fairness and of citizen whose and sincere desire to friendliness accountabte.for oofservice are measure of his succe. a large become more ctot tcresls have Stfssraw'ft ie tsrt. ffesu t he has, quite naturally to further Ski's- - e?Uis-'- SS and "him continued success. i When a city like Salt Lake City has gained recognition for being the metropolitan center for many square miles of the surrounding country, it is because of the foresight of those pioneers of earlier days who had the vision to realize the possibilities of their home town and who also had the ability to work for the fulfill-ment of that vision. And Mr. Wm. H. Adams Sr. is a man who be-longs in this category. Salt Lake City owes much to those pioneers pf earlier days but each succeeding generation must produce its share of business and civic leaders to assure the con-tinued growth and prosperity of the city. It is also the purpose of this review to call the attention of our readers to some of these pres-ent day leaders and in this in-stance we wish to point out Bill and Tom Adams, who are associ-ated with their father in the op-eration ofthe Wm. H. Adams & Sons Co., who are leading whole-salers and retailers of Furniture and carpets. Mr. Adams and his sons Bill and Tom are not alone in their efforts to increase the prestige of the city but they are fine ex-amples of the type of men whose combined efforts are responsible for Salt Lake Citys past and fu-ture prosperity.
