  STEPHEN R. STILP, office manager of the Kimberly & Clark Company's mills at Kimberly, Wisconsin, has worked his way to the position which he now holds in a comparatively short time from that of office boy, the capacity in which he joined this company, and is an example of what may be accomplished by persistency of effort rightly directed and a determination to succeed. Born in Neenah, Wisconsin, in 1874, Mr. Stilp is a son of John and Josephine Stilp, the former a native of Prussia and the latter of Southern Germany. Mr. Stilp's parents came to the United States as young people, locating in Wisconsin in 1849, and being married in this State. John Stilp, whose occupation was that of shoemaker, is now deceased. Stephen R. Stilp's education was secured in the parochial school at Neenah, and even in boyhood he showed his enterprise by devoting his vacations to work in a grocery store instead of joining his less energetic companions in play. On completing his schooling he entered the Appleton Chair Company's factory at Menasha, where he was employed for about one year, and he first entered the employ of the Kimberly & Clark Company in 1890, in the capacity of office boy. His advance since that time has been rapid, and although still a young man he holds the responsible position of office manager for the large interests of the company at Kimberly, where he also serves as county supervisor. In 1895, Mr. Stilp was united in marriage with Miss Ella Beach, of Neenah, daughter of J. P. and Ella (Platt) Beach, of Manitowoc, Wisconsin. Mr. and Mrs. Stilp have had four children: Stephen R., Jr., Dorothy M., Alice G. and Helen J. Mr. and Mrs. Stilp are members of Father Van Nistelroy's Holy Name Catholic congregation, and he is a member of the Knights of Columbus, the Modern Woodmen and the E. F. U. In his political affiliation, he adheres stanchly to the principles of the Republican party.
