     CHARLES R. BOTELER, manager of the Pioneer Paper Company, of Portland, 
has exhibited business qualities of the highest order and his concern has 
shown a steady and substantial growth in its business due to his energetic and 
progressive efforts. Mr. Boteler was born in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1892, a 
son of R. L. and Elizabeth Boteler. The father, who for many years engaged in 
the contracting business, now resides in Los Angeles, California. The mother 
died in 1893.

     Charles R. Boteler received his educational training in the public 
schools of his native state, graduating from high school, and in 1908 went to 
San Francisco, California, where he became identified with mercantile affairs 
as a special salesman. He followed that line of business for eleven years, and 
in 1921 came to Portland as manager of the Pioneer Paper Company, Inc., of Los 
Angeles. This company handles all kinds of roofing paper and the house at 
Portland sells to the jobbing trade exclusively. Mr. Boteler has devoted 
himself closely to building up the business, in which he has met with notable 
success.

     In 1912 Mr. Boteler married Miss Helen Sullivan, of San Francisco. He is 
a member of the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, in which he has attained the 
thirty-second degree of the Scottish Rite, and is a Noble of the Mystic 
Shrine. He also belongs to the Alderwood Country Club. He maintains an 
independent attitude in politics, voting according to the dictates of his 
judgment. He stands for all that is best in community life, ready to support 
all measures for the advancement of the public welfare, and his record since 
coming to Portland has gained for him the uni¬form respect and esteem of all 
who know him.
