    Josephine Spinning. In looking over the pages of a history of any county,
city, or state, we find that the biographical record of men predominate,
scarcely even do we read of the accomplishments or achievements of women
although, in thousands of cases, were the truth known "the power behind the
throne" in the success of the man spoken of, was the wife and mother. Today
things are changed and especially has this been brought about by the great World
war. Women filled and are still filling all of the professional and mercantile
positions with even greater ability and success than men. In presenting to the
public the lives of those citizens who are deserving of a place in a work of
this character, hone is more worthy of mention than the young lady whose name is
the caption of this article, Miss Josephine Spinning, who, by her own
indefatigable energy and honorable business methods, together with a happy and
pleasing personality, has won her way to success. She was born in Miami, Ohio, a
daughter of William and Kate (Bunnell) Spinning, the latter of whom was born in
Cincinnati, but now resides in Cleves, Ohio, a retired contractor, and the
former in Miami, Ohio. Mrs. Spinning is deceased. Miss Josephine Spinning
obtained her early education in the public schools of Cleves, Ohio, and later at
the Queen City College of Pharmacy, from which she was graduated with high
honors, in due course, with the class of 1913. Upon completing her course of
study, she came to Cleves, where she purchased the drug business from Dr. F. A.
Grossman, and at the present time is continuing in it successfully. Politically,
Miss Spinning is a stanch Republican, but gives more of her attention to her
business interests than to the affairs of the public arena. In religious
affiliation she is a member of the Presbyterian church and is interested in all
its activities, whether social, charitable or business. Miss Spinning is also a
member of the Ohio Valley Druggists' Association and the Ohio State
Pharmaceutical Association. In concluding this review of Miss Spinning's life,
we may say that, besides being a shrewd business woman and a brilliant
pharmacist, she is also a lady of true refinement and culture and is well-loved
by her many friends throughout the county.
