Mr. William Graham , who has been Manager of the Waikouaiti Cheese Factory since 1900, was born in the north of England, in 1872, and came out to New Zealand with his parents in 1880. After leaving school he engaged in agricultural pursuits, and subsequently turned his attention to cheese manufacture, and with the help of his father, soon became proficient in the business. He was for two seasons at the factory at Stirling, under Mr. W. Sawers, before being appointed to his present position in 1900. Mr. Graham has been president of the Waikouaiti Caledonian Society, but his business claims so much of his time that he has little to devote to social matters.
