Bernhart of. the Independent Telephone association who is making a periodical inspection here. "There is nothing 'absolutely which the operators of the Richmond office do not do unusually well," declared Mrs. Bernhart 'today. "Miss McGreevey, the , chief operator is very efficient and is backed by an organization that the city can well be proud of. Mr. Bailey, the manager, demonstrates by his innumerable considerations that he is an, unusually competent manager. ' . - ; Mrs. Bernhart said the local office was progressive and the service was nearly perfect as any other office in Indiana. Her duties consist of securing a more uniform method in the transmission . of long distance calls, closer co-operation between the office and more efficient handling of local calls. The inspector will be here for four days and tomorrow night will speak to the operators at a meeting. Because of the efficiency of the Richmond ' office Mrs. Bernhart will not conduct an operators' school here.

COUNTY CORN CROP ESCAPES DAMAGE

, Wayne county farmers are not concerned in the reports from the Chicago board of trade to the effect that a loss of millions of dollars Is threatened the farmers of the corn belt in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other states. The reports say that wet weather which prevented the proper ripening of the grain on millions of acres of corn was followed by frost which nipped the ears before the grain had hardened. The soil in Wayne county -is for the most part underlaid with gravel and with the water running off quickly the condition of the corn was not materially effected detrimentally by the heavy rains. MISS BARGER SPEAKS. Miss Maude Barger. instructor ofj drawing at the Richmond high schobi, ! will also give a talk at the Home Economics day meeting, March 16, ; which is to be held at the high school ; I Miss Barger's subject will be "Art in the Home."
