Milton Adler
Cincinnati, The Queen City, Vol. 3; published in 1912
Page 536, Cincinnati, The Queen City
                                       

Prominent among the progressive, enterprising and far-sighted businessmen
of Cincinnati is Milton  
Adler, the Vice President and Executive Manager of the Julian Kokenge
Shoe Manufacturing Company, a 
mammoth enterprise, with which he has been identified since 1893. In this
connection he bends his 
efforts to administrative direction and his keen judgment and the
soundness of his business methods are 
manifest in the splendid results which have attended his undertakings.
Mr. Adler is one of Cincinnati's 
native sons, born in 1869, his father being William Adler, the founder of
the Fairmount Woolen Mills, 
of which the son is still president. The father was a native of Germany
but the belief that better 
business opportunities were afforded in the new world led him to bid
adieu to friends and native 
country and sail for America. He became a resident of Cincinnati about
1854 or 1855 and with his 
brother Isaac, founded the Fairmount Woolen Mils, which he conducted
successfully for many years, 
this growing industry becoming one of the important manufacturing
concerns of the city. He remained a 
valued and representative businessman here to the time of his death,
which occurred in 1903. 

Milton Adler was reared in Cincinnati and attended the local schools,
being graduated from Hughes High 
School in 1887. He afterward spent a year or more in the University of
Cincinnati and liberal education 
thus qualified him for many of the practical and responsible duties which
have since devolved upon him. 
He entered business circles as a clerk for the wholesale dry-goods house
of the George W. McAlpin 
Company and there remained for a year and a half, after which he became a
partner in the firm of 
Mayer Br4others & Company, wholesale dealers in liquors. In that business
he continued until 1893, 
when he became Vice President of the Julian - Kokenge Company. His
attention has since been 
concentrated upon the work of office management. For intricate commercial
problems he finds quick and 
ready solution and his judgment is seldom if ever at fault. He possesses,
too, the definite aim and 
determined purpose that enable him to carry forward to successful
conclusion whatever he undertakes, 
and he is recognized in business circles as one of the strong
representatives of commercial affairs. 

Mr. Adler has won in social circles equal favor with that accorded him in
business life. He is a popular 
member of the Phoenix Club, the Country Club and the Business Men's Club
and other organizations. In 
matters of citizenship he stands for that which is practical and
progressive, desiring the best interests 
of the community. He does not seek nor care for office but in business
circles is leaving his impress as 
one of the foremost factors of the community.
