SALESMEN, BUSINESS, HELPED BY PHONES, SAYS COMPANY HEAD

By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. 27 There is no lsmmediate danger of the telephone driving the old time drummer out of business, according to Frank Wamplr, general manager of the Indiana

Bell Telephone company. Friends of the traveling salesman, he says, may ouit worrying over his future. Growth of the commercial telephone business in recent years has resulted in suggestions that traveling men might be supplanted by agents who would solicit business by telephone, the advantage being saving in time and in traveling expenses. "The fact is." says Mr. Wampler, "that the telephone is helping the traveling man instead of hurting him. It is making him just about twice as efficent as he used to be. And at the same time it helps him cut down expenses for his firm. Extends former territory "In some instances traveling salesmen are covering twice as much territory as they used to cover, thanks to the long distance telephone. In other instances they are covering their territory in half the time they formerly used, and still further cases they are making only half as many trips, following up a regular trip by a series of telephone calls, that makes it unnecessary to make a second trip. We handle business for Indianapolis wholesale firms who sometimes arj able to cover a salesman's route by telephone, using him on some other work or having him do the telephoning.

"Another way in which the salesman is helped by the telephone is this: he frequently finds that the person on whom he calls is out and will not be back soon. Instead of waiting all day the salesman can size up the stock, make a note of what is needed and go on to the next town and customer. From that town he can call back at night and take the order of the customer who was out when he visited him. "It would be too bad if the telephone should drive out of business the old-time drummer, who for years has been the heart of trade. But his friends can have no objection to helping him in every way possible.' A number of Indianapoli3 wholesale firms are making use of the telephone in transacting business thruout the state but they confirm M. Wampler's statements that the traveling salesman is far from becoming extinct.

This little incident so graphically

told by Mrs. Bradbury reveals a bit of her character. She takes keen delight in telling of her church activities and has a wonderful memory for

It was like this: 'While I am young and happy too, The truth to you I'll tell; For if I should unite with you, I'd have an earthly Hell. 'I saw you going down the street, And I was sorry too; You could not stand upon your feet. And your nose looked very blue.' " Mrs. Bradbury recalled that during the temperance campaign days Mar

school, she has also passed through periods in which her efforts for the right, stand out prominently, aside from strictly church work. Of these endeavors, probably the most noteworthy has been the part she, with other good women of her day, took in the various temperance demonstrations. "I remember that the Sons of Temperance was one of the early temperance societies," said Mrs'. Bradbury. "There was always the spirit in this town among the women which prevented the saloon from getting a strong hold in this community. "Well, do I remember about some of our temperance crusades. One day there were 12 women and girls got together to discuss the way to get rid of the man selling whisky in our town. March to Saloon. "We marched to his store. O, bnt some of the men on the street were surprised to see their wives marching. We went into the saloon. Hannah Hamilton accused the man with selling whisky to boys. We routed him out, and ever since, when anyone wanted to start up a saloon we chased them out. "Another time we wrote a notice giving a man three days to get out. We walked into his saloon and up to the counter and handed the notice to him. Olinda Bunnell was the spokesman. The man loked at the notice and then wrote something ou the bottom of it. I asked him if he was figuring up how many drunkards

j "I voted the straight ticket," Mrs. Bradbury said. "I am a Republicani Prohibitionist. I thought I was a Democrat until the rebels fired on Fort Sumter. Then I turned Repubi lican. While I am a Republican I believe in having two tickets. Otheri wise our country would be too much ' like a monarchy." Getting back again to a discussion 'of her religious training, Mrs. Bradjbury said: j "I had lots of fun when I was a girl, but I never danced in my life. ; My mother was left with four chilj dren, and she taught us all that it j was wrong to dance. We all went in- ! to the church early in life.

I would say to the young people of this day; Be Christians as early as

!ou can. You will escape a thousand l pitfalls. When I was a girl they used ; to tell me not to go anywhere that I i couldn't take Jesus, j "My message to young people is to , do good and never think that you are

get old you can talk. Take Christ as j your guide early in your youth." j Doesn't Favor Movies. ! Mrs. Bradbury is not in favor of having moving pictures in the church. "Moving pictures in he rViiirr shiv a lack of spirit in the church," she said. "There should be euougu guuJ in the church to attract the young without special entertainment." Telling of the early Methodist church in Green's Fork, Mrs. Bradbury said: "A Methodist society was organized at an early date, but in what year has i not been ascertained. Their meetings were held at the house of James Porter in the vicinity of the Friends meet-

mg house, known as Fairfield, northi east of Green's Fork, which at that time was called Washington. "In 1815, Rev. William Hunt was on

the Whitewater circuit and is known to have preached in this place. Among the early members were: James Porter, James O'Dell and William Fox and their wives, and Polly Morgan, whose husband had been killed by the Indians near Morgan's creek, in the Walnut Level neighborhood. "A church was built by this society in the north end of town some time later, the ground being donated by Robert Murry. The house was a small frame, and as the years went by, and the membership increased,

I the building became too small to ac

commodate the membership The people changed the building until it had

a seating capacity for 200 or more. This same house was occupied by the Methodist until 1873, when a new church house was built down town on South Main street. No Sunday Preaching "In 1848, when I came to Green's Fork, we did not have Sunday preaching. It was but once in every two or three weeks, and was usually held on a Wednesday. People generally attended well and we often had as many at the meetings as we do sometimes on Sunday. Mrs. Olinda Bunnell with her youngest son, Eulas, was among those often seen at these meetings. "Our class leaders of that day used to lead us in old Methodist style. Thursday night prayer meetings were well attended by the country folk,

who would came in on horseback, two riding on one horse. "The circuit was very large in those

days, and the minister - was truly called a circuit rider. While the circuit was so large, some year's conference would send two preachers, an older one with a young minister, so we had a change, as you can see. , "On quarterly meeting occasions, love feasts would sometimes last from 9 o'clock In the morning until 2 in the afternoon, and there was na grumbling. Church Music Lacking "There was no instrumental music in our churches in those days. They

had singing schools, taught by those

wno taught notes, and many learned to sing by note and they would lead the singing in public services. James F. Owen and Aaron M. Gunchel often lead the singing. A favorite song of Aaron Gunchel's was often sung In

j prayer meeting. It was 'We Are Go

ing to Zion. An old mother in Israel would invariably shout. "Sunday schools in those days suspended during the winter, but reorganized the first of April.

UNUSUAL CAMPAIGN FOR NORTH DAKOTA OFFICES ENDS FRIDAY

(Bv Associated Press) BISMARCK, N. D., Oct. 27. One of

the most intense campaigns for state offices waged in any state will come to

an end in North Dakota tomorrow, with the casting and counting of ballots in its now famous recall election. The three men that the Independent Voters association attempt to recall from the North Dakota Industrial Commission and it 13 for the handling of state finances as officers in this body, rather than for individual acts as governor, attorney general and commissioner of agriculture and labor, that the recall petition . has been set in motion.

wipe their feet and put on their shoes to enter the building. "As we believed temperance and re1 ligion went together we used to hold regular temperance meetings in the church. I am the only one living that was in the first temperance crusade in this town." . Among the preachers at the old church, Mrs. Bradbury named George W. Stafford, J. H. Hull, Rev. Lowery. Dr. Spellman, Milton Mahan and George ' Newton. At the time these men preached at the church. Mrs Bradbury said that the old-fashioned

mourners' bench was much in evidence, and big stout men and women were not ashamed to bow at the altar, and date their conversions from that time. Prayer Meeting Organized About the time the old church was sold and a new building erected. Mrs. Bradbury recalled the organizing ot a women's prayer meeting, started by

Mrs. Rachael Cook. The meetings were held every Saturday afternoon at the home of Frelen Williamson, until the new building was completed. Preaching services were held every two weeks in the United Brethren church. Mrs. Bradbury said the trustees of the old Methodist church also composed the building committee. They were: Robert Murrv, Samuel Cook. Frelen Williamson. Rev. R. D. Laufman and John Winkle. Ezekiel Johnson of Williamsburg, acted as president of the committee for a time. The church was not completed the first year, according to Mrs. Bradbury. Only the foundation was laid. Rev. W. E. Curtis came to the church in the sprig of the following year and some time during the next fall the church was completed and dedicated. It was named the "Johnson" church, after Ezekiel Johnson, of Williamsburg. The funeral of Samuel Cook was the first held in the church, Mrs. Bradbury said.

ures it is proposed to write upon the statute books of the state at this time through the approval of the voters and also to decide if they desire to accept or reject, three amendments to the state constitution. The recall petition proper, asks the removal from office of Lynn J. Frazier, governor; William Lemke, attorney general, and John N. Hagan, commissioner of agriculture and labor. The candidates to fill these positions, if vacated, are R. A. Neston, of Buxton, for governor, Sveinbjorn, of Grand Forks for attorney general, and Joseph A. Kitchin, of Sentinel Butte, for commissioner of agriculture and labor. Mr. Frazier and Mr. Hagan have held office for six years each while Mr. Lemke took office at the beginning of the present year. Their present terms expire with the end of 1922 and if any are deposed the candidate taking the vacant place will fill out this term.
