From the first decade of the present
century until the early SOS, the only or
ganiZatioas of printers Were the typo
graphical societies scattered throughout
the country in all the large cities. The
local society was organized on January Z,
1915, at the residence of Mr.. II. C. Lewis,
there being thirty one printers present who
signed the constitution. The preliminary
meeting which led 10 the formation OF the
Eociety was also held at the home OF Mr.
Lewis, nearly n n onth previous, Decem-
ber 10, 1914, and was presided over by
Andrew Tate, with Mr.. William Duncan as
secretary.
The first permanent officers chosen were
Alexander Graham, president; William
Duncan, vice president; Andl cw Tate treas
urer, and John SutOr, secretary. At the
meeting at which the permanent oTgaHZa-
ton was effected the following scale of
prices for type-setting was adopted From
plea to agate, inclusive, 60 cents Fer 900
ms; pearl, 60 cents per COO diamond, : 8
cents per 1,o00, and all foreign languages

AS to travels and biography, Corinna has
a personal idiosyncrasy on that point. She
says that one can get more local color and
real knowledge OF country out of its nov
els than ont of all the books OF travel that
were ever written, because the novelist has
to sympatbIZe with his creations and de-
scribe them truly while the Traveller
can roam around unfeelingly, TAX
ing snap shots, and very often does Per-
haps this is true, and perhaps not. At any
rate books of travel are expensive, while
the magazine and the novel are not.
For the plain people, who can afford to
spend bat five, or ten, or fifteen dollars a
year on their reading, the widest kno wledge
and the most entertainment almost always
comes through the story or the magazine
article. Three dollars will buy the maga-
zine for the year; So will buy anywhere
from half a dozen to twenty novels. And
this means hours of enjoyment, not only for
the year bat for many years after; whilethe
So expended on stray periodicals and sub
scription books leaves the buyer on 36l
days OF the year in the state of mind which
prompts the query:
Have you got anything nice to read?''

Since its organization Colubnia Typo
graphical Union has steadily increased in
membership. From l members in SCI the
number has grown TO more than 1900,
which places it in the front rank of unions Of
all crafts in this or any other country.
Located at the National Capital, together
with it's large membership, makes it one
OF the mostimportant and Observation-Disclosures
in America. All the important matters OF
legislation affecting the printing trade
is in measure intrusted to its legisla-
tive committee for Steering" from the
fact that the local union is considered to
be lin on the ground floor and is better
posted on all matters relative to the
advancement OF the interests of the mem
bers of the craft than any other union in
the country.
A matter in which all members OF the
printers trade pride themselves is the
care which they take of all members in
good standing when circumstances demand
that they should be assisted either pecu-
niarily or otherwise. Not only are the
general funds of the organization appro-
priated for this purpose, but also special
assessments are levied to meet cases OF
emergency. In this way since the or
ganization of Columbia Union, No. 101,
thousands of dollars have been spent;
but with all this the union has accumu-
lated wealth and beautiful home.
