'T'HE following pages deal with that big army which was all of the time backing up -*- here at home, by economizing, buying Liberty Bonds, contributing to war funds and tirelessly pushing their respective trades and industries at fullest capacity that the boys over there might feel the fullest support and carry their arms to final success just in the manner that they did.

With the same loyalty and unselfishness that characterized the business and professional men, the commercial and industrial interests of the county during the war, so these men, firms and corporations represented in the following pages show themselves still to be backing the soldier now that he is home from battle by ordering these accountings of their stewardship in those perilous days and thus making possible such an elaborate and permanent history in which to preserve the glorious deeds of the soldiers from this county.

In that the end of the war marks the opening of a new epoch in the history of this nation, the Williamson County War History Society deemed it quite fitting that the professional, business and industrial conditions be reviewed at this time. For when the future historians look to this period for material they will have a true and complete picture of the county in all its activities in this important period. It will serve as a "Who's Who" book of the period - something, unfortunate to say, we have been left at the close of no other war.

Every business, every public official, every corporation, every industry in this county was cordially invited and those not responding, urgently solicited to be represented in these pages. It was fully explained to those who held out and are still not represented that every patron of these pages mean a contribution to the most permanent and fitting memorial that could be erected to the honor of the soldier. Every man who answered the call of his country to arms in this county will be able to see for himself those ever patriotic men who did respond to our request and thereby thought enough of the soldier to aid the society in preserving for this and future generations his part in the Great War. The response was indeed magnificent and none certainly will ever feel ashamed of what is written here. The following pages speak for themselves.

Producers Of Energy Coal

OOME ten or fifteen years ago, Herbert ^-' Taylor, of Chicago, a young man with considerable experience in the coal trade, organized the Taylor Coal Company. The company's first venture was the acquisition of two mines and the washer just outside of Herrin, Illinois, and at the same time Mr. Taylor hit upon a name for his coal and a trademark that have since become famous in the coal trade. The name itself, Energy, has had a good deal to do with the building of the morale of the organization, for often, especially after the men went to France, was the organization spoken of as the Energy family. As a family it is not wrongly named for it is one of the brighest and livest organizations in the coal trade today, an organization in which Mr. Taylor takes a tremendous personal pride, asking but one thing of his men, unswerving loyalty.

What has all this to do with Williamson County's part in the war? Just this. The man who gives his employer the best that is in him gives his country the same kind of loyalty and every report from the mines bringing new names to be added to the bronze Roll of Honor hanging in the Chicago office was read with pride and interest,

Mike McNeil, Co. I, 49th Inf., died in camp in this country; Preston Staton, Co. F, 7th Engineers, was killed in action, as was also Cecil Draper, Co. A, 120th Inf. - Edward N. Davis, of the Chicago office of the Company, a member of the machine gun company of the 130th Infantry, died of wounds received in action. Of those who went over and came back with decorations there is no record nor is there any record of the promotions received by the men. That they acquitted themselves with honor goes without saying and is indicated in the tables which slip out on rare occasions.

The men who entered the service of the government are not by any means however the only ones who served. Theirs was the dangerous, the hard, uncomfortable, disagreeable and sacrificing service, but, although in a lesser degree, the men who stayed at home served as well. Never in the history of the coal trade were the men asked to work as they were during the period of the war, never did they rise to an emergency more loyally. The four mines of the company clustered about Herrin have a daily capacity of about 7500 tons and they together with the other mines did noble work.

In addition to their daily work a number of the men put in extra time on the Liberty Loans, and all of the war work campaigns. Among the men in the Chicago office there were three or four who worked on every loan and every war work campaign while six of the others gave half of their time to work in the Fuel Administration offices in Chicago.

One hundred and twenty-five, out of one thousand to twelve hundred men, in active service, the balance doing their bit at home, is a record of which any firm may well be proud of, and the Taylor Coal Company takes this opportunity to pay tribute to the members of the Energy family who served their country, particularly those who sacrificed all.

Which Hangs In Their Chicago Office

-T^RANCO COAL" has become well known among the large coal users, through the sales agency of Cosgrove & Company, Old Colony Building, Chicago, who are selling agents of the Ernest Coal Company. This company operates three mines, one at Johnston City and two at Pittsburg, in Williamson county. One of the mines at Pittsburg began production the past summer.

The veins of the Franco mines run from nine to eleven feet in thickness and are what is known as the celebrated No. 6 vein, which in these particular mines tests 13,000 B. T. U. - a remarkable heating figure in comparison with hard coal.

These mines are equipped with the very latest screening devices which makes "Franco Coal" uniform from top to bottom. Besides the screening devices they maintain a special ever moving picking table and shaking screen, which very few mines use, producing a select coal sorted and picked for domestic or family use.

The executive officers are H. J. Meeham, president, Johnstown, Penn.; Frank Finsth, secretary-treasurer, Cherry Tree, Penn. J. S. Crosgrove, Chicago, is president of the Pittsburg mine, the other officers are the same as the Johnston City mine. The main office is maintained at Johnston City and the local officers there are: R. B. Mitchell, superintendent; B. H. Schull, assistant superintendent, and Harry Woods, chief clerk.

The company employs a large number of miners and other employees - they and the officers were very active in all war work and have a splendid record, the Johnston City mine having the distinction of being the first mine in the State making a 100 per cent record on the third and fourth Liberty Loan drives, every employee subscribing for bonds and War Savings Stamps.

Chicago & Big Muddy Coal Company

*Offices, Chicago and Marion. Officers: A. B. McLaren, Pres.; M. Woodley, Vice-president; O. M. Burnett, Gen'l Sales Mgr.; M. A. Canavan, Sec'y; J. T. Dean, Asst. Treas.

E one Williamson county institution that every man, woman and child takes pride in and eagerly awaits the opening date, is the Williamson County Fair. Usually this fair is held after the opening of the schools in the fall, but it has long been a practice to close school for one or two days and also all the business houses of the county for at least a day to give every one an opportunity to take part in Williamson county's big gala week.

The Williamson County Agricultural Association was organized in 1856. John Goodall was president; John H. White, secretary; and 0. H. Wiley, treasurer. The first fair grounds consisted of ten acres west of and near the village limits on West Main Street, now in the city. Since then, except during the Civil War, the Association has held regular annual fairs. The first extensive improvement was the adding of fourteen acres, after a reorganization, this has been added to from time to time until the present site contains fifty-three acres. Without exception it is the best shaded, the best watered and in the best condition of any fair association in Southern Illinois. Rain or shine, the fairs have been held as advertised and every cent of obligation has been met.

The plan and arrangements of the grounds and buildings are artistic and well carried out, and the general appearance and ensemble of the whole is attractive and very pleasing to the eye and taste of the most exacting. Two amphitheatres are new, and this year was added a series of box seats formed into a neat grandstand for the convenience of those who desire and can afford to pay for private boxes to view the high class show that is constantly passing the grand stands. The exposition buildings consists of the agricultural, domestic science, poultry and educational. In addition there are extensive classified stock buildings for exhibition purposes and racing stables. Nice commodious, convenient subways have recently been built, leading from the amphitheatre side under the track to the elegant park in the track circle, which can be used at all times without danger from running horses on the track.

The agricultural department is conducted upon broad lines, and the fanner is encouraged by every inducement modern methods may offer to better conditions op. the farm. If there is any one department that gives supremacy in attention and effort it is the agricultural section, and this attention has been appreciated by exhibitors and it is hoped that the facilities offered by the association will be enjoyed and taken advantage of to the fullest extent by the farmers of Williamson county at all future exhibitions. The live stock department is a particularly important feature, and the showing made by the stock raisers is especially gratifying. Magnificent horses, blooded cattle, fancy bred hogs and the finest strains of poultry are on exhibit each year. Last, but not least, the lowly mule is at his best because Williamson county is the largest producer of fine mules in Southern Illinois, and Marion is the central market from which is shipped each year the cream of the mule product of Southern Illinois.

The premiums are large and varied, covering every important exhibit. The volume of gross expenditure in premiums is not exceeded by any fair in the state with the exception of the State Fair, and in a great many features the State Fair is rivalled.

Considerable credit is given the different officers and directors who serve from year to year without remuneration of any kind, except the secretary who receives a very nominal fee for continuous work the year round to make each fair outrival the past year's efforts. The secretary for the past twentyfour years has been George C. Campbell, whose untiring efforts are credited, in a large measure, the association's present success.

THE Marion State & Savings Bank of Marion was organized in 1890 by C. H. Denison and J. H. Searing and joined in a few months by J. H. Burnett with a capital of $30,000.00.

Incorporated July 24, 1902, as the Marion State & Savings Bank, with a capital of 000.00 and in four years increased its capital to $100,- 000.00 from net profits.

C. H. Denison was president from 1890 to the time of his death June 26, 190 8. At this time J. H. Burnett became president, and still holds that office. E. B. Jackson, who had been bookkeeper, and then cashier in the new institution, has held the office of cashier down to the present time.

This has been a successful bank from the day it started. A money maker all the time. Conservative, yet progressive and at all times using its resources and influence toward the upbuilding of Marion and Williamson County.

Few country banks have been blessed with two such able financiers as C. H. Denison and J. H. Burnett. Their conservative and progressive ideas have become deeply imbedded in the character and life of E. B. Jackson, who for so many years has been associated

This bank did its bit throughout the war period most nobly. The fact that its cashier, Mr. Jackson, was early selected as county chairman of the Liberty Loan compaign, brought the institution into prominence and made it a busy clearing house for the county's war finances. The members of the board of directors and depositors as well were enlisted in the work from the first in various patriotic ways that called for finances.

"DROWN'S BUSINESS COLLEGE of Marion, 111., is one of the many schools which go to make up the chain of the efficient business training schools bearing this name. At the close of the Civil War, Mr. G. W. Brown, seeing the need of a business training for the boys who fought to preserve the Union, determined to establish an institution for business training to meet the increasing demands for efficiency along business lines. This was in 1866. From that time to this these schools have rapidly

Prof. J. H. Siekman of the Marion school took charge of this important school June 1, 1913. Since then he has increased the enrollments of this school 2300 per cent, and his students are a living advertisement to this famous business training school.
