i). w. McMillen, through an era of great change. First a straight complete feed 'period. then a reaction aud now a totally new era. "The Sugar Company outlook Is equally encourtMting. It expresses more vfaion and sound approach to present conditions than I have seen in any similar hu«fn*w>. Its long distance view-point is correspondingly wound. "This organization affords the greatest opportunity for prosperity and advancement of any organization which has come within the scope of my observation for many years." Discusses Management In discussing the attributes of a successful business enterprise. Mr. Hall said: "Management nieajrs power and authority but coordination is its chief factor. "The succese which you all have experienced is due to sitting at the feet of the master who well knows the way and Jias a truly human feeling for the management of men as well as organin. tion. "Those of you who have had the privilege of years of association ■with Mr. McMillen have had a laboratory example of the proper way to handle authority. The combination of gifted men. neces- i sary funds, experience and human-1 ized management tells the story: of success. “No wizard is needed to foretell ' the future of this business. We have a sound product, sound | business which together with sound management are symbolic of what the coming years have to I offer. “In deciding to associate myuelf ■with you I feel I have made one j of my greatest business decisions, but knowing your spirit, your products and your leadership 1 know we cannot do other than ascend to; greater heights and greater success." Mr. McMillen remarked in closing the evening's gathering: "I am proud to have a man of Mr. Hall's calibre associated with our Companies in such an outstanding capacity. With his background and previous successful business operations. I know our organization will go forward with the same zeal it has shown in the past.” Mayor Expresses Appreciation Mayor A. R. Holthotise welcomed Mr. Hall to the bosom of Decatur and assured the members of the entire organization that while they might not be residents of the city, he hoped they would always feel they were its representative.-. "If I have a mandate from the people of Decatur it is to express their appreciation to Mr. McMillen and his associates for what he and his organization has contributed to our community. We *re sincerely grateful and the least I can say is that the McMillen organizations can expect our cooperation.” Mayor Holthouse WHY SUFFER? Rheumatism, Neuritis.
