A linotype School

Twelve ambitious students are fast learning to set type by machine In the linotype school recently established by the Times In Its large brick building on the corner of San Fernando and Col lege streets, Los Angeles. The ma jorlty of learners have entered upon a three months course and are daily turning out practical work for local Job offices and out of town newspapers. Operating on "llve" work Is an encour- aging feature of the institution ana lends zest to the otherwise laborlous task of learning any kind of a trade.
 Good linotype operators are much In demand throughout the entire country and printing and publishing houses are experiencing endless trouble In secur- Ing efficient operators. Experienced men with little more than ordinary ability are earning In many offices an average of $4ooo to $5o.oo per week In operating linotype machines.
 The Times has invested in equip ping the school total,of nearly $5O.- ooo.oo and expects to graduate oper- ators in three months. who, with a lit- tie additional practice. will be able to hold their own with journeymen who have long been at the trade with less favorable opportunity to learn.
 The school is conducted under the auspices of the Times with instructors in charge who have had long practice at both the operation and care of the marvellous type setting linotype machine
 Only limited number of students can be enrolled and the Times will furnish particulars to young men ambi- tious to learn money-making trade.
