An Artistic Cover.

The minutes of the fourteenth annual
session Of the New Mexico Bar Associa-
ton, together with special addresses,
soon to be issued in book form from the
presses Of the New Mexican, will have
a title page and cover that are certain
to commend themselves to the lawyers
of the territory as genuine works Of art.
The cover is printed in gold ink, and Is
a beauty. In this connection 1t should
be noted that the work was personally
designed and executed by H. L. Dun
ming. foreman Of the New Mexican Job
printing department, on the twenty
fifth anniversary Of his entering the Of
fee Of the Hammonsport IN. ~ Her.
aid as a printers apprentice, and was
certainly a most worthy way for him to
celebrate the event. 1t may truthfully
be added that the New Mexican IL al
ways prompt and strictly up to date in
the execution Of all printing and bind
ing intrusted to 1t, and it's prices are al
ways reasonable. r
