Lights in Dark Room Used

SAVES TAXPAYERS
NEARY 2 CENTS A DAY
Amount viii Pay Interest on
Salary He Draws In Advance
When Holidaying

The county OF Wayne has been
saved vast sums Of money.
Auditor Charles A Buhrer has
again proven his title to the sobri-
Quet Watchdog Of the treasury
Nine attorneys are mad and Indig-
nant and thirsting for gore.
Saturday morning, Auditor Buhrer
left his rosewood desk and started on
an inspection tour OF the county build
ing. His stern glance darted hither
! and thither and observed everything.
He was seeking chance TO save the
county money. AT last II came.
In the ONCE Of the clerk of the JUS
tice court. nine attorneys we're bend
Ing over long counter signing pa
pers and reading briefs. Above them
glowed Elk or seven small electric
lights. The basement windows let In
some light for the desks In the east
end Of the room, but the long counter
is in the west end.
"Ha!" quoth Auditor Buhrer, "what
q wicked waste!"
He stepped to light. "Snap"
The light died out. An attorney
raised his head and stared. The aud
itor had gone on to the next. One
by one they were snapped out, and
the counter was shrouded In gloom.
The attorneys protested in vain.
Could the clerks In the Office dare go
against the work of Auditor Buhrer?
No, indeed.
The attorneys sought other offices
and as they sought they walled. They
also sought information. They dis
covered that the electric lights In the
county building we're kept going by
a dynamo In the basement at cost
of about one one-hundredth Of cent
per hour per light. BY swapping OF
six lights, the county was saved al
most two cents on the day.
This remarkable exhibition Of mod
ern factory efficiency so impressed
the newspaper men that they started
to investigate the story. Half q
dozen lawyers had told them about 1t.
They sought the fountain head. Said
Chief Clerk William Teagan:
mo, no, indeed no. It's all mis-.
take. You boys are not going to
write q story, are your?
The boys allowed they were.
The clerk disappeared. In q few
moments Auditor Gutman appeared.
Its all mistake" quoth he. II am
sure It's a mistake"
But the word of the attorneys was
accepted. Thereupon Auditor Gutman
hedged as follows: well, you see
