THE STATESMAN-
FORMER
DENVERITE
SUCCEEDS
Madam C. J. Walker Sells Her Hair
Grower so Widely that She is Able
to Give Indianapolis Y. M. C. A. a
Thousand Dollars
THE WALKER MANUFACTURING
COMPANY, INC.
The Freeman of Indianapolis of re
cent date says:
Few, very few persons in this city,
have an adequate idea of the bulk
and volume of business done by the
Walker Manufacturing Company, now
located at l>4(» North West street.
Coming to Indianapolis about one
year ago, Madam C. J. Walker pur
chased a home on North West street,
and immediately set about putting
he r wonderful preparation upon the
market. Her bid at that time being
for the local trade, for through a w« II
planned system of advertisements ! er
preparation was already well known
in all parts of the Union.
Madam Walker met with some <>p
position in tlie form of doubt and in
difference, but being a woman with
a strong and determined will, she
kept her preparation before the pit
lie, and soon the demand became s.»
great that she had to seek larger
quarters; to meet this demand she
had erected a large factory in the
rear of her beautiful home on North 1
West street. This factory does a
rushing business, both local and for
eign. Madam Walker, as president
of the corporation, contents herself
with acting in a supervisory capac
ity, the immediate management being
I under a forewoman, an estimable and
competent lady from Springfield, 111.
i There are several girls employed,
! also bookkeeper and stenographer.
It is a treat to visit her laboratory,
! see the girls at work, talk with
| Madam Walker, and get an idea ot
Madam Walker's Manufacturing Establishment
her business. Madam Walker in now ,
making arrangements to send agents
to all parts of the country. Numer
ous applications are in and are now
under consideration. Indianapolis'
feels proud of this business woman,
as well as of the opportunity for em
ployment this corporation offers to
her boys and girls, and this city is
proud of her for yet another reason,
proud of her great, big, generous and
race-loving heart, as attested by her
gift o one thousand dollars to th|
Colored Y. M. C. A. building fund.
In 1905 she discovered a remedy
for the growing of hair. After hav
ing tried it successfully on herself
and family, she decided to make a
business of it. July 19, 1905, sh( i« ft
St. Louis, Mo., for Denver. Colo., to
engage in the hair growing business.
After many discouragements and ob
stacles she finally was able to con
vince tlie people at this place that
she could really grow hair, and was
successful in building up ;i fair busi
ness. January 1900, she was mar
ried to C. J. Walker. After her mar
riage, site moved from an attic room,
which she had been occupying, to
more comfortable furnished rooms,
2
i where she continued her business at
2310 Champa street. She remained
ed in Denver a year. She became
awakened to the needs of the colored
people in this line and her discovery
, was regarded as one of the wonders
of the world. As she had not thor
■ oughly convinced the skeptical public
in so short a time she decided to
travel, notwithstanding she was dis
couraged by her husband and many
patrons who said she would not be
able to make her expenses from one
town to another. However, she was
determined and felt inspired to do so.
Believing, as Christ converted the
world by miracles He wrought before
the Jews, by placing her hand in His,
she might convert the world by the
wonderful good she would do her peo
ple. Hence on September 15, 1906,
she started out. accompanied by her
husband, to place her goods on the
market; he having decided to join
heart and hand with her to make her
work a success, notwithstanding he
cbuld see nothing ahead but failure.
Madam Walker
After a few months on the road, he
became thoroughly convinced that her
method was the right one Thej
traveled for a year and a half. At
the end of that time, the mail order
business had so inct eased,
was necessar> foi them to
somewhere temporarily, so Pittsburg,
Pa . was • let ted for t hat purpose
After establishing ;i business there,
she left her daughtei in charge of
the business there and began travel
Ing again February 10, 1910, she
came to Indianapolis, [nd„ and was
so impressed with the city and the
cordial welcome extended to her sh •
/decided to make this city her home.
Since coming here she has purchased
and paid for a beautiful home valued
at ten thousand dollars, adjoining
which is a factory and laboratory,
said to be the most complete of its
kind in the United States. She has
050 agents. Her business is incorpo
rated with it capital stock of SIO,OOO,
with an income of SI,OOO per month,
with Madam Walker as president. She
has made possible tin? way for many
colored women to abandon the wash
tub for more pleasant and profitable
occupation. Since coining to this city
she is regarded its one of the most
active in its commercial walks, and
her business qualifications and integ
rity are unquestioned. Site is a mem
ber of Method A. M. 13. church, and is
active in all worthy or religious
movements.
Mrs. Leila Walker Robinson, her
daughter, has charge of the Pittsburg
branch of her business.
