GA R R MT showed his perseverance right at the start. i le was only ;t boy of fourteen then, but he inside tip his mind that he was gouig to get a position with the Studebaker Co., sso he made application to 11. I.. Hinds, inds, who was at that time the Factory Superintendent, iiteiideiit, for a job. Mr. Hinds told hint he was sorry but that he didn't have :t vacancy anywhere and gave the boy no encouragement. flat didn't phase hima bit, however, aiid day ;tfter clay he went back until his persistency Itriaily won him a place. 1iiat was iii 1876 and he h;ts been with the St u- t elmkcrs ever since. He went to work at first in the lumber yard piling spokes and other dimension stock and re- mained there about six months. He then went into the wooed working department, under A. W. Peak, foreman, as a helper oti the planer. lie continued as ;a helper in the wvi ui11 wvorking department for three years. and as he had by, that tithe become familiar witli the variouis ma- chines itt that department, he wv;t.given charge of a machineand worked onvarious inachiiies until 1891, when (tee went iback into the lu»ilter yard again, this time :ts a lumber iti.p►ector. Ile owed his position as lumber inspector to Air. J. M. Studebaker, who it;ul tioteed his atpIplication to his work ;tnd his ability to properly judge the quality of a piece of timber. For two years Ite held the iosition of in- spector of lumber and so highly did NIT-. Stude- baker value his knowledge of lumber andwood stock that; at the end of that time, iie was given charge of the daily delivery of all lumber and wood stock from the yards to the factory and keeping record of sanie. Fie held this position until 1895, when he again went back to the wood working department where he had worked as Zt helper twenty years before, this time as foreman of the department. Mr. Garrett held the position of foreman of the wood working department until October 1896, when, again at the request of Air. J. \I. Stude- baker, he went back; to the lumber yard as yard master, which position he still holds. •As Mr. Shiner says, on another page of this issue, the Studebaker lumber yards are a most important Dart of their business of wagon build- ing. The quality of Studebaker vehicles depends %cry largely upon the proper care and handling of the more than seventy million feet of lumber and dimension stock stored there, and Mr. Gar- rett's 1position carries with it a great deal of re- spotisibility. i\ltliougii during the past year 496 more cars of lumber were unloaded than during any pre- vious year there never has been a time when the Studebaker lumber yard was iimore "spiel< and span" than it is today. Studebaker Harness Co. Notes. TI It year just closed was a very success fill One for the Studebaker Harness Co. Iti 1906 their volume of business showed ;t very large increase and their business for 1907 shows a substantial increase over the previous year. They beganithe new year with a frill force working Rill time and are prepared to do a still larger I,tisiness in 1908. it miay be a surprise: to sottte to o learti t hat the Studebaker ebaker I I;a I' es% Fac- tory employs more inen, has snore floor space. atie snakes aiul sells more harness than any other harness factory iii the country. Their new Col - lar Making Department, installed Dist sumitmer, was a success from the start and they have lately had to secure additional space: for this det,art- merit. Mr. U. G. Speed, General Manager of the Stu- debaker 1-Iarness Company, has recently engaged the services of kV,1_. �;his to represent Com- pany in North and South Carolina and Tennessee. 1Harrison 1 r. Butt formerly represented Messrs. lli & C;attliright, of Louisville, .Ky., ;Bid is well posted on all matters pertaining toharness. Joseph Dickey, re )resenting the Studebaker Harness Co. in the Southwest, recently (eft for a trip through Texas and Pacific coast terri- tory. Robert Wainwright, another traveler whose headquarters have been in St. Louis, has been transferred to territory in the Northwest and will now snake Spokane, Wasli., his headquarters. :1nuther new harness traveler is Mr. C. Compton, formerly with the Sickles Saddlery Co., of St. Louis, who will cover Indiana :tticl south- ern Illinois, in which territory► he is already weli known to the trade. Not Much Difference. STRANGER, says a contemporary, ad- dressed the farmer's boy across the fence: "Voting than, your corn looks khid o' yellowy." "Ves, that's the kir) we planted." "Don't look as if you would get more than half a crop." "We don't expect to. The landlord gets the other half." "Then, after a short time, the man said, "Boy, there isn't much difference between you and :t fool" "trope," replied the boy, "only the fence," f
