A RARE OLD RooK.
Memoirs Of Gen. Washington, Printed in
Wilmington in 1926.

Memoirs OF Gen, Washington frinted IN
Wilmington in 1896.
The Wilmington Institute Free Library
has recently acquired q very interesting
old book. published in Wilmington many
years ago. Il is entitled "The Biographi-
cal Memoirs of the lllustrious General
George Washington" and was published
in Wilmington by Robert Porter, at No.
97 Market street. in 1926.
The work is undoubtedly that Of John
CORY. an Englishman, who first published
tho book in London. Many reprints Of
the book were made in the United
States. the name of the author not being
given lt has been found that books with
this title were published in many Of the
smaller cities OF the United States. but the
interesting fact about the copy IN this
library is that no record that the work
was published here was ever made in the
| lists of Americana, although they contain
the records OF the publishing Of the sam'
book in other places no larger than VII
mington
1t is a very small book in board cover
and shows the marks OF age and usage
Unfortunately the last page of the bool
is missing. The subject matter Of th'
book is OF very little importance, It's mail
interest being due TO the fact that il wa
printed in Wilmington and to its rarity

Such a blouse as this one makes
most desirable addition to every girls
wardrobe. It is charmingly graceful
and attractive while absolutely simple
suiting the girlish figure to perfection,
and can be treated in so many ways as
to practically become several models in
one. In this instance it is made OF
white silk duck trimmed with Valen-
ciennes lace. the neck being left high
and the sleeves cut off in elbow length,
but the neck can be cut on either round
or square outline, giving the half low
effect that is so attractive when becom-,
INC. while the sleeves can be extended
In The wrists if better liked. All
wasting and all dress materials OF the
season can be utilized, for the model
suits the cotton and linen fabrics quite
ne well as those Of silk and wool.
Lawn, hatiste and the like are m
every way charming so made trimmed
with simple lace insertion, while wool
and silk can be finished with any one

Every Evening building will, in the
future, be devoted exclusively to the
publication of Every Evening. Hubert
A. Roop, printer, who has occupied the
second floor for several years, follow
ing the occupancy of that part of the
building by the Star Publishing Co.,
has moved his Office TO 604 Market
street, Every Evening being very much
cramped for room, as a result Of the
Development of the business in the
past few years. Arrangements are
being made to utilize all of the space
in the building for the publication Of
the paper, which will insure even
better service than heretofore.
The second floor, which has just
become available, as stated above, will
be occupied by the editorial, news and
telegraphic departments, which are
now located on the third floor, and
the third and fourth floors will be
given up to the composing room, which
is now on the fourth floor. On these
floors will be located all of the type
setting facilities and operators and the
proofreading department.
The building, which is four stories
high, has five roomy floors, but until
recently only four we're required in
the publication Of the paper. The
basement, which extends under the
sidewalks on both Fifth and Shipley
streets, is required for the press, stere-
otyping and mailing departments. On
the street floor is located the business
Office, treasurer's office and distribu-
tion department. None of these will
be disturbed and for the present there
will be no change in the basement,
although the acquisition of a fine new
press in the near future is contem
plated.
Every Evening was formerly pub
lished in the building at the south
vest corner of Fifth and Marke
streets, but that building was sold t
Samuel H. Baynard, who razed it tS
give way to his present store, and il
1888 Every Evening erected the build
ing it now occupies, for its especia
use, and it was so arranged as to &C
commodate the needs of the paper TO
some time to come.
Before making the changes outlined
above, il will be necessary to maxi
some improvements and alterations OF
the second floor. which 5 vacate
today by Mr.. Roop. This will be 81
arranged as TO best suit the needs o
the departments which are TO b
located here
At present all of the typesettinl
machinery is on the fourth floor, whicl
cramps the composing room very much
but after some of il has been moved
IN accordance with the plans outlined
there will be ample room in every de
partment. The machinery in thi
department includes three Lansto
monotype keyboards, two Lanston type
making machines and three Thorn
typesetting machines. In addition Z
this battery Of machinery there IS
large force Of operators and composl
tors, the latter being required to sc
