W. M. BROWN.
    W. M. Brown of Fort Smith is at the head of the firm of W. M. Brown &
Company, electrical engineers, in which connection a business of extensive
proportions has been developed. Mr. Brown is a native son of Sebastian county,
Arkansas, born in the year 1883, his parents being James and Caroline
(McLaughlin) Brown. At the usual age he became a pupil in the public schools and
thus laid the foundation for his later professional training. He afterward took
up the study of electrical construction and became associated with the Fort
Smith Light & Traction Company, adding practical experience to the knowledge
which he gained from books. He has pursued his reading extensively and has
acquainted himself with every phase of technical and applied electricity. He
knows the theory and the practical side of the work and he organized the firm of
W. M. Brown & Company, now engaged in rebuilding and installing motors, in the
building of power plants, mine power plants and electrical machinery. The
business was organized under its present form in 1919, with Mr. Brown as the
controlling spirit, and his interests have developed to very substantial and
gratifying proportions.
