     New City Manager

  At its last meeting the City Council appointed C. V. Gannaway city manager for 
a term of twelve months, T. L. Satterwhite, who had filled the office quite 
creditably for several months, retiring from municipal life. Both of these 
gentlemen, besides being personal friends of the writer, have numberless friends 
hereabout. Mr. Satterwbite has gained many new friends since taking the office of
city manager by his business and thorough way of handling the affairs to the office, 
and there are many who regret to see him leave the services of the city. He has 
devoted himself sarcrifcingly to duty, and leaves the offlee in good condition, 
as is shown by the auditor’s report.
  Mr. Gannaway, having served the city in the capacity of manager under the 
present council, needs no introduction to our people. He is wide awak[e], broad
minded and thorough in the discharge duty, and possessess those peculiar 
qualifications necessary for the management of this important department of the
city government. One of his strong points during his former service of the city 
was the strict upkeep of the streets, regardless of difficulties, while not 
neglecting the other divisions of the job. He goes to work thoroughly practical 
and with a valuable knowledge of the requirements of city manager of Teague, has
a mind to do things and his friends stake their good judgment pn his promised 
good service.
