PRESS ROOM NOTES.

Have you had your ink rollers re-
cast? September first is a good time
to have it done; then they may last
the year out.
We have sharpened our old paper
cutter and it cuts like anything.
The time is approaching for the
railroad companies to send blank
contracts for next years advertising
How does the years account look
since the new interstate commerce
law?
If man spend all the week print
ing big posters for bargain sales, and
only get even on his work and paper
wherewith shall he obtain more ink
and oil to replace that which he hath
used? Selah.
When pieces Of paper get into the
ink fountain and mix up with a pint
Of ink worth half dollar, take a
two-quart can, cut out the most OF
the bottom, smash some wire mos.
quito bar into it for bottom, and
dump the mixture of ink and paper
into 1t and let 1t drip thru into the
ink cup.
When thru with cuts, especially
fine ones, wrap each CUT In tough
paper, then clip the picture it prints
from the work just finished, and
paste it on the face of the package
to show what Is inside. This makes
handy index to the package, and
also protects the face of the cuts
from scratches in handling. Do not
get any paste on the screen.
Listen to story. Bert was a new
boy in the Office. He was handy
hand, and was told to go up on the
stepladder and oil the overhead fix
lures. He emptied the oil can and
filled it to go "aloft" again. Oil
was floating in the air and descend
ing upon the machinery under the
shafting. Investigation showed that
he had poured all the oil into the
drip bowls and the bearings were
running warm. He believed in oiling
everything he came to.
