WILL A. MOSSLER.

The above is one of the most capable young business men in Indiana, as is evidenced from the wonderful success he has attained for The Model store, during the eighteen months it has been under his management. To be sure he has been backed by ample capital, which goes far toward enabling any merchant to secure the best values in exchange for his ready cash, but that is not all that builds up a successful business. Mr. Mossier is reputed among members of the trade as being an excellent judge of goods', a prudent buyer and a salesman par excellence. He is always ready to purchase those newer and most fashionable articles of merchandise which makes The Model popular with stylish patrons. Will A. Mossier was born in Thorntown. Boone county, this state, in 1867. His father is Aaron Mossier, a merchant there for thirty-two years, under whom the son received the training which is now so valuable to him. In 1890 he went to Kentland, Ind., where he engaged in general merchandising for two years. He then went to Remington and remained one year; then in May, 1894, came to Rensselaer to manage his father-in-law’s store, The Model. Mr. Mossier was married to Miss Ray Leopold, daughter of Abraham and Amelia Leopold, April 15, 1890. Two children have come to bless their happy home, Pauline, born in Kentland, January 7, 1891, and Phillip E., born in Rensselaer, December 16, 1895. Mr. Mossier is a member of several fraternies, Masonic, Odd Fellows and Knights of Pythias.
