BRUNER BUYS HEBRON TELEPHONE PLANT

A. L. Clark Sells System He Purchased Several Months Ago—May Move There Soon. J. F. Bruner, who recently sold his country telephone lines to the stockholders of the Jasper County Telephone Co., has closed a deed for the Hebron plant, buying it from A. L. Clark, of this city* who had purchased it a few months ago, after .selling his interests in the local company to George M. Myers. Mr. Bruner took charge today, July Ist. He also owns the Mt. Ayr exchange, which he purchased some months ago of Dr. Merry and which is being run by his son, Bari Bruner. Frank Bruner, another son, will be placed in charge of the Hebron plant, but Mr. Bruner will spend much of his time there and may eventually move to that city. The Hebron plant has been improved materially since A. L. Clark purchased it and is said to be in excellent condition now. Edward L. Clark, son of A. L., has been in charge of it. Mr. Clark is said to be looking for a plant at some other place. Hamilton & Kellner are carrying a large stock of binders. If your old one does not handle the heavy grain they can fix you up with one that win.
