A live wire business man, who has been in the sugar business for ten years, full of energy, a keen, quick thinker, he is a valuable man for any community and has already found his place here. He served as book keeper anil assistant manager of the St. Louis plant six years, and then went to Charlevoix as manager of the sugar factory there and then came back to St. Ijouis as manager where he remained until he came here. It was due to Mr. Hubbard that the idea was first brought up to locate a factory in this section of the country. The reorganization of the eomirany followed and the location of the finest sugar factory In the world at Decatur. Mr. Hubbard, though small of stature is one of the biggest men who ever joined our citizenship and he has already made that fact noticeable. We like him, because he is the real stuff, and we believe in saying so now.
