movement of all manufactures except in the
class above noted, is further illustrated by re-
markable increase in the 'importations of manu-

cIassiies the tmportations into five great groups;
FoOdstuffs raw materials Tor manufa aCturing,
material partially or wholly manufactured for use

Alabama reading public many years ago by the head at the top of the first page of the paper. In the same characters the sign !" The Montgomery Adver- tiser," runs half way across the top of the Lawrence Street side of the building.
 The basement has two entrances, the first from the sidewalk on Lawrence Street into the mailing, distributing and carrier rooms. The second is from the press room into the storage room, where the rolls of white paper are kept. Ad- jacent to the storage room, in the basement, is the heating room in which is heated the air which is distributed throughout the building by the Fan Blower sys- tenn of the Peck Hammond Co.
 On the first floors are the gen. eral offices of the business depart ments, situated in the forward part of the building. Entrance to these is through the wide vesti- bule at the street corner, with its tiled flooring and mahogany cell ing and plate glass doors. The ceiling of this big room filled with partffion offices is in rich mahog- any finish. The office furnishings are of the same finish.

ing through fues by the Fan Blow CT System. The system insures an even, mild temperature through the coldest weather of winter.
 The building is equipped with a complete and independent tele' phone system. The building tel ephone system works automaticai- ly and by means of it the head of one department can communicate with the head of every other de- partment. without leaving his desk.
 A heavy cable runs between the first and second floors of the build ing and from it entire wires branch off to the first, second and third floors. On the desk of the head of each department is a simple keyboard enumerated from one to twelve. Communication is had through an ordinary telephone re- ceiver. The connection is made automatically. A small steel peg is placed in one of the numbered holes and the office phone to which the number corresponds answers.
 As time saving device, ana in keeping with the general idea of utility, two copy chutes have been established. One runs the height of the building, from the compos- ing room on the third floor to the

room is provided with an immense iron safe, new desks and other modern equipment.
 In the lobby or accommodation vestibule is large standing desk for the use of patrons and the public.
 At the extreme southern end of the first floor and to the rear of the general business office, is sit- uated the press room where the big Goss Straight Line Perfecting Press is established. The floor of this room, to give the big press a firm foundationJ is of concrete. The press is in easy view from the side walk on Lawrence Street. The room has entrances from the bus mess office and from the storage room.
 The second floor is devoted to the writing force of The Adver- tiser. On this floor are situated the editorial and reportorial rooms of the paper. It contains the of- flee of the Editor-in-Chief, six other offices and a large library and consulting room in the rear end of the building. A hallway runs from front to rear, on this floor, from which entrance is had into the offices. All offices have connecting doors.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1902-10-05

The floors of all rooms and of the hallway are covered with the heaviest linoleum. The rooms and hall are kalsomined tinted in light green. All wood work on this floor is of olive green. Win dows open into each office and the long hallway is well ventilated. Each of the rooms on this floor is Itovided I with modern roll-top desks, with typewritars.
 A broad flight of stairs leads from the editorial floor to the composing room on the third floor. The composing room occupies the larger part of the highest floor. This room is TT feet long and 24 feet wide. The front of the build ing on the third floor is used as an office by the News Editor and the Associated Press operator.
 To the rear of the composing, or type-setting department, is the stereotyping room. This room is 20 feet wide by 24 feet long. It is hoored with sheet steel, for in it the metal is melted from which the plates of the forms for the press are cast.
 The conveniences established in the building are of the most mod ern and useful nature. The struc- ture is warmed by hot air. The heat is generated in big room in the basement. From there it is distributed to every room and every office in the build

the County Court House, up the Avenue and not far away is the State Capitol and about The Adver- tiser's new home is the city's bus mess community.
 To that portion of the city in which it stands the building is an acquisition of importance and an improvement in its appearance. At night with every floor of the building brilliantly illuminated, the importance of the improve ment to that section of the city in its construction is emphasized.
 In reality the building has four floors, as every foot of space in the basement is utilized. It faces 25 feet on Dexter Avenue and ex- tends back III feet on Lawrence Street. It is 45 feet high from the first floor level.>
 The style of architecture follow ed by MT. B. B. Smith, the ar chitect, who planned and superin- tended the construction, is the Co., lonial. His plans and ideas were successfully carried into execution

office of the Advertising Manager on the first floor. This chute pass es through the office of the City Editor. By its means copy IS rushed from the first and second floors to the foreman's desk on the third floor, where it is dis tributed to the ad men or the Lin otype operators. The copy is con- veyed in a small box or receptacle which is shot from floor to floor by ar arrangement of wires.
 The second chute runs from the composing room to the proof read CTS room on the second floor. 1t is used for the rapid conveyance of proofs to and from the reader. The operations of the two chutes are identical.
 Since the establishment of The Advertiser in it's new home third deck has been added to the Goss Straight Line Perfecting Press, which had previously been a two- deck structure. The improvement was put upon the press under the superintendence of two experts from Chicago. The big press, which is three plates wide at the bottom, can now print a 28-page paper at one operation. The pur- pose of the improvement was to do away with the necessity of two runs for the Sunday paper of in- creased size as before with the press while it was a two-decker.
 The press now has g ca pacity of 24,o0o four, six, eight or ten page papers

by MT. J. B. Worthington, the contractor who erected the build ing.
 All decorative effects are in cream, while the body of the build ing is of red brick. The window caps are supported on consols richly crnamented in cream. On the front are two large double arches supported by ornamental terra cotta caps. On the Lawrence Street side of the building is an- other large arch similarly support ed, which spans the douUle doors that lead to the editorial depart ments on the second floor, and the composing room on the third floor. The entrance doors are of a rich mahogany color with beveled plate glass.
 In the front, ct the northwest corner of the building, is the handsome entrance to the business department. This vestibuled ent- rance is attractively tiled, and it is reached by stone steps. It has a rich mahogany tinted ceiling.
 On the outside of the building across the front and on the side, the building as high as the first floor, is covered with cement, coursed, and having the appear ance of stone, and coiored in cream.
 At the front of the build ing and on top is the sign, "The Advertiser" in the old Eng fish type, made familiar to the

Behind the partitions are the of- fees of the Secretary and Treas urer of the company. Circulation Manager and the Advertising Manager. To the front of the first floor is the counting room and the Cashier, behind railings and sup piled with desks of handsome ma hogany finished hard wood.
 From the vestibule entrance lobby extends to the press room in the rear. The office fixtures are particularly handsome. The hard wood fixtures havo bronze grills and brackets, with glass dealing plates and plate glass pam els on either side of the wickets. The ceiling throughout is of rich mahogany finish. The walls are covered with burlaps in dark green. The burlaps hanging of the walls are something of an innovation In Montgomery, but experience in larger cities has shown them to be most enduring as well as ex- tremely ornamental. The interior of the general office room for the business force is altogether attract i've.
 Underneath the panels, sur rounding the office of the counting room, are commodious cupboards for the storage of stationery, books and papers. These cupboards, like the other fixtures, are made of mahoganized birch. The counting

by the junction of Lawrence Street and Dexter Avenue. It is upon the first rise of the hill that gracefully sweeps to the futed columns of the State Capitol. It stands near the heart of Mont gomery's business district and near it flows the active commer- cial tides of the city. The cen tre of Montgomery's commercial activity, like the center of the population of the United States, moves steadily. The business cen Ire of Montgomery in the city ex- pansion has moved to the South and East.

it is of red brick with cream trim mings. The effect is impressive.
 The structure occupies a com- manding position on Dexter Ave- nue, the thoroughfare leading to Alabama's historic Capitol, the street which is to Montgomery what Pennsylvania Avenue is to Washington. In the past two years, perhaps, more improve ments have been established on Dexter Avenue than on any other street in the city. In building op- erations the Avenue, short as it is, has, perhaps, overshadowed any other thoroughfare of Montgom- cry.

Description of Advertisers New Home

The ownership of its own home is the mark of distinction of every
 successful newspaper. The papers which own the buildings in which
 they are printed are usually pros I porous and influential.
 It may be said that the estab-
 lishment of a paper in its own home marks its entry into wider field of usefulness and influence.
 Such has been the history of ra- pers which have achieved great 2tsG.
 The removal of The Advertiser
 to the building planned, construct
 ed and arranged for it, marks an epoch in it's history. It is of mo- ment to the thousands of The Ad- .vertiser's readers, promising, as it dces, the improvements in the pa- per that must necessarily follow the increased facilities for gath
 ering, asserting and circulating
 news.
 "It is the most conveniently ar-
 ranged newspaper office South of
 Mason and Dixon's line." This was the comment of bus
 mess man and a traveller after he
 had been shown through The Ad-
 vertiser's new building at the
 southeast corner of Dexter Avenue
 and Lawrence Street.
 The remark of this observant
 man epitomized the spirit that act uated the manager who conceived, inspired the architect, guided the
 contractor, and controlled every \ IIs's4-7 sa- --,s-.-s.ss==zss E,
 man who had a part in the struc- ture. Convenience, convenience, | @, yenience, was the dominant idea in the planning and making of the building, from the basement floor to the sky lights. Every man who has a part in the daily making of The Advertiser is giv- en. in the new building, every facility for doing his part. What he needs to do his daily task has
 been placed near his hands. His surroundings are arranged for the rapid and thorough accomplish ment of his daily work. Utility in every detail of the building, from top to bottom, has been con suited. .-
 The best equipped and most modern newspaper offices in the
 United States were searched for
 ideas of utility and convenience. The latest and best ideas approved by experience have been adopted
 and made a part of the new build
 ing. But in conceding every de-
 mand made by utility it was rot
 necessary to ignore architectural
 beauty. It was not even neces-
 sary to subordinate the beautiful
 to the useful. A handsome exte-
 rior and a pleasing interior were N A :-ao~.-o&;Io1a aud pa;@har bod
