Before a telephone office is estab'
lished the engineers must go over the
ground carefully and make a survey
Of the conditions TO see whether a
central Office is needed. Among the
things TO be considered are the num-
Der of people in that particular com
munity who may be expected to re-
quire telephone service at the present
time or within the near future. An
other factor which is given serious
consideration is the number of people
who may locate in this community
within Ave, ten, fifteen. or twenty
years and the class of business which
they will operate.
With these facts in hand the en-
gineers figure from past performances
in other sections what may be ex-
pected in the way OF telephone growth
and what revenue may be expected
from the service which will be fur

The operators at the switchboards
must work together in the interest of

to answer calls and establish commu-

and to help other operators adjacent
to her position as required In doing
this she must carry on her work in an
efficient way so that she is helpful in
her efforts to assist her fellow

The public and news reporters We're
excluded when the church trial OF the
Rev. Ashley ChappeIl of Asheyille be-
gan here today before q board OF the
Methodist Episcopal Church South,
Western North Carolina Conference.
In explaining the executive session
of the court DIR. w. J. Prettyman,
chairman Of the hearing, declared that
in closing the doors to the public the
court was following a custom ana rule
Of the church iW such matters.
1--WE hold that our business Is the
business Of the church and not the
business Of the world, said the chair
man, who was chaplain OF the United
States Senate In the Administered OF
Presidents Roosevelt and Wilson.
DIR. Chappell, pending his church
trial OF a charge of immortality, has
been suspended from his passionate, the
fashionable Central Church Of Ashe-
VILE. He has stoutly asserted his IN
nocence Of wrongdoing.
AS a further preliminary, DIR. Pret-
lyman made an oral statement to the
trial committee explaining the purpose
If the session and the nature OF the de-
Lucrative body.
1--WE are here" he said, "not OF our
own choice, DuC cdlISu Uy The ChuAOA
to consider matter calling for the ex-
ercise Of our highest Christian quail
tiles.
eve would resent any insinuation,
from persons within or without. that
our actions today are Influenced by
any consideration Of self-interest or OF
prejudice. We are here to carry out
the task which the church has com
mitted to our hands.
Eve are here to consider In regular
manner a charge against one OF our
brethren. If we find that rumors which
have come to us or the charge which
has been brought are unfounded, then
we shall 60 away with the highest Joy.
OF we find that the accusation IS
substantiated, then we must weigh
the moral value of the matter and con-
slider what shall be done to serve our
church and our God.
The church court Is bound by no
rules of a civil legal court, the chair
man announced. nor by the technical
procedure or logic of the civil courts. :"
The accused minister appeared at
ease as the trial opened, and greeted
friends calmly.
