Mr. Horace Wright has always been ambitious and has forged his way to his present position by sheer hard work and force of character. He began as a stiffener boy and was successively laster, operator on Rex Pull Over, and manager of lasting department. Was recently one of the directors of a limited company, but now manufacturer on his own account, speciality Good class Youths’ and Boys’ footwear. Mr. Wright has been a very successful technical student, and gained the County Prize in 1909 for hand making, also passing in First Class Honours in lasting and management in 1910. He is alert and keen to introduce new and original styles and keep well to the front in shoe manufacture.
