HILL, Who Might Have Been a Great Sur-| geon Had His Father Lived A Trifle Longer. Born in Canada, Jame; his boyhood days in New hoping in the future to be cian, With the death of his_father these hopes went glimmering. He left school and went to work in a country store, devoting his earnings to the sup- port of the family. He made quick progress, saved some money and at last yielded to the call of the West going from Maine to St. Paul. H he found employment as a shippi clerk and began a study of the two great problems which the Northwest faced—transportation and fuel. 'We fcllow him as a steamboat agent to station egent at St. Paul and hear him pooh-hooed when he proposes a rail- way from the Great Lakes to the Cpast. But James Hill saved money and overcame obstacles through a de- termination to succeed and in thirteen years completed his road, which, with others, was eventually taken over by the Great Northern, of which Hill is the master mind. To secure export -shipments Hill es- tablished a line of steamships from Seattle to Asla and a fleet of freight- ers on the Great Lakes. To.fill “emp- ties” he developed the Mumber indus- try tn ‘Washington and helped- settlers to quickly bring the wilderness into highly cultivated farm lands. Today he is establishinga system of“trolley lines, converging at Portland, which will tap the most fertile Vnflevs of" Oregon, where-his steam lines will take the fruit to the East. Hill makes it possible to reach the Coast from Chica- go.1n 70 hours. He saved and invested his money carefully. TEvery young man has the same opportunity if he has the Hill nerve and determination to make his mark higher up. The Willimantic Savings Institute Incorporated 1842 H. C. Murray. President D.
