It is a fact that the railroad and commercial telegraph companies are un-
able to secure a suffleent number of competent telegraph operators for the
various positions to be filled.
Telegraphy is well adapted to ladies, being both, light and agreeable.
The Western Union Telegraph Co., alone employs thousands of them,
having on an average two lady operators to every gentleman and the Pos
tal Telegraph Co., is about tho same.
