ment Of the State College Of Agri-

.'The Father of the Limo
type"

OF more than usual significance
to the newspaper man and to the
printer as wen as te every reader Of
a newspaper, is the announcement
that James Ogilvie Clephane, known
as the father Of the linotype, Z is
dead.
History bears no more notable
example Of the use Of wealth for the
practical benefit Of mankind than is
shown in the aid given by Clephane
to the inventor, Ottmar Mer-
genthaler, in the perfection Of the
modern linotype. 1t was his en-
couragement and financial support
that enabled Mergcnthaler to perfect
the machine, which has revolu-
tionizod the making Of newspaper.
OF scarcely less importance than
the discovery of Gutenberg Of the
use Of wooden blocks in printing
was the perfecting Of the linotype.
By its use the issuance Of the large
daily papers was made possible on a.
profitable basis. It is the linotype
that makes possible the rapid setting
up Of matter in the extras, which
have come to be such prominent
feature with many newspapers OF
today.
II was maxim Of former years
that the pen is mightier than the
sword" Today, however, the lino-
type might be said to be greater
instrument Of power than any ever
conceived in the mind Of man. None
Of the wonderful death-dealing ma
chimes devised by mans ingenuity
to excmplify mans inhumanity to
man can compared with this great
machine fos the uplifting and en-
lightenment Of mankind in the
paths Of peace.
To James Ogilvie Clephane hardly
less than to Ottmar Mergenthaler
belongs the credit for the creation Of
the linotype. The two have wrought
one Of the master works of the age.
