CHESLEY ROGERS.
Chesley Rogers, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Rogers, of Harlan, was brought up in Harlan. He attended the Harlan schools and became interested in drawing and art when these subjects began to be introduced in the schools. He followed up his special taste along these lines securing a position with a Cedar Rapids firm and subsequently going to the city of Des Moines, where he now resides. He is engaged in different phases of commercial art and is making a fine reputation for himself, doing work for many leading business men of Des Moines and for patrons widely scattered over the country.
