well trained by the careful in

lections showed the same superior
talent a$ on former occasions, and
delighted the audience.

Hampton Buggy Company Suc
cessful.
Just fifteen years ago W. P.
Wilson bought out W. W. Turnip
seed’s general repair and wood
working shop, and commenced to
manufacture buggies. The first
year only twenty-five buggies were
made, the capacity of the com
pany to-day is two thousand. The
secret of the success of the com
pany has been due very largely
to the quality of buggy made.
Their motto is “Quality and not
Quantity.” To this end W. A.
Wilson, Secretary, Treasurer, and
General Manager, devotes his en
tire time. W. P. Wilson is Presi
dent and Sales Manager.
