John Glenn was a Calgary pioneer who has shown abundant proof what may be done by industry and perseverance, backed up by sound judgement. He was a first settler and farmer in the Fish Creek region, and noted for his hospitality. John spent a great deal of money on experimental farming and erected the largest stables in the town of Calgary and two of the largest stores at the time. His motto through life was "Live within your means, and save a beet for a hungry day."
