THEODORE MIX
Since 1921 Theodore Mix has been president and general manager of the
Minne­apolis Sanitary Ice Company. He was born in Germany and came to the United
States in 1882, at the age of fourteen years. After completing his education he
became associated with the Minneapolis Provision Company and remained in the
employ of that concern twelve years. For three years he was engaged in the meat
business and in 1912 he assisted in the organization of the Minneapolis Sanitary
Ice Company, becom­ing vice president of the corporation at that time, and is
now its president and general manager. Mr. Mix is well qualified to discharge
the many duties devolving upon him in his present responsible position, for he
is a man of great executive ability and keen business foresight. He is in every
sense of the word a self-made man and well merits the success he has achieved in
life, for it is the result of his own labors.
On the 4th of November, 1888, occurred the marriage of Mr. Mix to Miss Minne
Holhus, and to their union five children have been born: Rosa, who is now the
wife of William A. Johnson; Dora, who is the wife of Jack Conley; Frances, who
is the wife of William Knowlin of Joliet, Illinois; Theodore; and Grace.
Theodore Mix is a mechanic and was an instructor during the World war.
The political allegiance of Mr. Mix is given to the republican party and the
prin­ciples for which it stands. Although he has never sought nor desired public
prefer­ment, he is ever cognizant of the duties and responsibilities as well as
the privileges of good citizenship and to that end is active in the furtherance
of any movement for the upbuilding of the city, county and state. He is an
active member of the Civic & Commerce Association and of the Commercial Club,
and is likewise a member of the North Side Club. Fraternally Mr. Mix is
identified with the Sons of Hermann. He is held in high esteem in Minneapolis,
because of his integrity and sterling worth, and his friends are legion.
