of directors, retaining all his interests in the company. His 
resignation as general manager comes as the result of the strenu- 
ous advice of his physicians. Mr. Leach has worked early and 
late getting the new company started, and overcoming many ob- 
stacles, he has brought the Robin Hood Powder Co. to the front 
rank among the manufacturing qoncerns of its class on this conti- 
nent. The directors find everything running smoothly, with a good
