The Charlotte Observer's Raleigh correspondence nays: XAggresslve business methods and a diligent care for the commfort and convenience of the patrons of the road whom he served, has given him highest rank with both the railroad company and the people." The Charlotte Chronicle says "Mr. Gattis is a fine railroad man and the; railroad that secures him gets value received. His friends throughout North Carolina are very much pleased at his continued promotion.

He ought to a railroad president, and seems to be working in that direction." The Greenville Reflector says: "In his going North Carolina loses a mifrnty good man." The Scottish Chief of Maxton. says: "All who have dealings with Mr. Gattis will regret his departure." The ltaleleh Times says: "Mr. Charles 11. Gattis.

Gattis, of Raleigh Be comes General Psveseaiger Agent or Georgia and Florida Railway on the First of January. Line, had resigned that postion to accept the position of General Passenger Agent of the Georgia and Florida Railway. Raleigh and North Carolina rejoice in the call to a higher position In railroad work which has come to Mr. Gattis, but there is regret and espe cially so in Raleigh that Mr. Gattis is to leave this city and State.

The reasons for this have to do with the personal ity of Mr. Gattis. for the Seaboard Air Line has had In its employ no one man who has more thoroughly pre served to it the regard and confidence of the people In this section, while at all times fully safeguarding the interests of the railroad. He is a fine type of the progressive young railroad man of the South, as well as of the young manhood of Raleigh, which is moving forward In making possible better things for this city. Mr.

Gattis record in railroad serv ice has been one of steady progress and advancement, and this because of things he has done, not because of any "pull" or favoritism. i Nearly nineteen years ago as a mere lad he entered the service the Seaboard as an office boy here, and he has made his mark as a born railroader. In time he became City Ticket and Passenger Agent in Raleigh, then a Traveling Passenger Agent, and is now the District Passenger Agent. That he has built up the passenger traffic of the Seaboard is a thinir that is known, ana ne nas achieved a wide reputation in having conducted the greatest personally con. ducted parties from the these to exeat expositions, to points nortn and into Canada, to points south and! into Cuba, ana in a tour or.

The people who have traveled with him and with his wife as the chaperone. have said the nicest kind of things and have presented to him handsome silver services at vari ous times Decause or nis uniamng courtesy and the splendid manner in which he has conducted these big and successful trips. The road to which Mr. Gattis goes is a progressive one of the modern type, the Georgia and Florida of SOS miles in length, lour or the eleven lines having been built outright, with seven other links from the beginning.

In June, 1906, Mr. John Skelton Williams, the president of the road, first began connecting up the short lines, the system extending through a very fine agricultural section of Georgia and Florida, running in a northeast and southwest direction, the through line being between Augusta, and Madison, Fla. The short lines 'embraced in the system are the Augusta and Florida Railway: the Atlantic and Gulf Short Line; the MUlen and Southwestern Railroad; the Ocilla and Val-dosta Railroad; the Douglas, Augusta and Gulf Railroad; the Nashville and Sparks Railroad, and the Valdosta Southern Railway. With these lines connecting links have been built and the company expects to build eventually from Augusta to Columbia, 8. C.

which will add 70 miles more to the road. The road has adequate terminals in Augusta, and it touches such places in Georgia aa Augusta, Mldville, Normantown, Swalnsboro, Mtllen, Vidalla, Hazle-hurst, Broxton, Nashville. Bluff, Sparks, Valdosta, and then on to Madison with direct connections to Jacksonville and the Florida territory. Capt, M.
