The Bennington banner. [volume] (Bennington, Vt.) 1858-1894, 1891-08-28
cOoD WORDS AND WISHES,

the BANNER was changed from folio to
an eight page paper. This incident has
been widely remarked by our brethren of
the editorial guild, and with the ex-
preston that we are grateful for their
good wishes we give their sentiments as
follows:
The Bennington BANNER has taken
upon itself the eight page form and goes
to subscribers cut and ready for use. 1t
is good time to speak well of the paper
the Judgment of any one who should
do otherwise would hardly be COM
mended. When Henry Wilson went
dawn to Boston from New Hampshire
the first time as green country lad he
had his mind fixed upon three things that
he was deter mined to see-Faneuil Hall,
Bunker Hill Monument and the Office of
the North American Review. Hereafter,
we apprehend that the country lads from
the homes that the BANNER reaches will
find the Bennington Battle Monument,
the Soldiers Home and the BANNER
office first in their thoughts as they seek
a holiday in town. Success to it.

The Bennington BANNER which has
long been considered one of the best
State exchanges received by the Mes
senger, has demonstrated that tits bound
to keep at the head of the procession
and having discarded the effete blanket
sheet style has come out in folio eight
page form. The BANNER is newsy
and reli able sheet, which is more than
can be said of many of the papers in that
section of the State. 1t looks well in its
new makeup and is deserving of success
which the Messenger hopes it will con-
tinue to have.-St. Adams Messenger.
The Bennington BANNER has altered
from the folio to the six-column quarto
form, allowing increased space. This
latter form is now used by at least three
fourths of the State press and has advan-
tages that are being recognized more
and more.-NortWteld Ne,cs.
We are glad to see that the spirit of
progression has lately seized the Ben
nington BANNER, it now coming to us in
an eight page form with new style of
makeup and altogether credit to its
editor and the town from which it
emanates.-Burlington Independent.
Our neighbor across the mountain
the Bennington BANNER-last week
adopted the popular eight page form.
The BANNER is one of the oldest papers
in the State, and for twenty-one years
has been under the management of
Pierce. Thus one by one the old and
conservative papers drop their anti
quated makeup to keep abreast of the
tide of progress.-PubliSher Deerfeld
Valley Times.
The Bennington BANNER, one of the
ablest, most perfect and handsomest
weekly papers in Vermont, has at last
discontinued the old folio 1.-TWO leaves)
form and adopted the more popular and
acceptable form. a quarto like the Sentt-
nel The Sentinel was not only the first
paper in the county, but in this section,
to change to this form. Now nearly
every paper has followed its style. The
Sentinel congratulates the BANNER on
its improved appearance and deserved
prosperity.-Sentinel, GranriIle, N. Y.
Now it is the Bennington BANNER
which drops the old four page form and
comes out as a seven column quarto.
The BANNER is an excellent journal and
its many readers will fully appreciate it's
improved form. We heartily congratu-
late the BANNER upon it's latest evidence
of continued prosperity, knowing that it
is fully served.-BWlingto Clipper.
The Bennington, Vt, BANNER has
joined the procession and changed from
the four page to the eight page form.
A folder will be added to it's Office equip.
ments and the paper will hereafter
appear cut and pasted. The BANNel
was good paper before and it will be
better than ever now, as the present
form is more convenient and tasty than
the old, and the sheet is also consider
ably enlarged by the change. 1t is
always well printed, we'll edited and well
filled with local news, and it deservedly
holds a leading position among the
weekly newspapers of the Green Noun
tain State. Congratulations are in order
and the Transcript gladly takes place
in the long line of friends now pressing
forward. Success to the BANNER-''lonl
may it wave. NORTH adams Transcript
