Mr.. McCay drew 5000 pictures is
also produced with the films. II is a
mary elous arrangement of colored
drawings and about as amusing a
thing as one could imagine. The

"stinger" like an anger, is shown with
a kit of tools as he follows a fat man

Now think back and wonder, if you

Truly, it was great day for CORE
spondence when the Remington Type
writer was born.
And is it not strange how uncon.
scious its inventors were OF its pos
sibilities?
| got a glimpse of an old catalogue
the other day of the vintage OF 1875
the first typewriter catalogue ever
printed, devoted to Remington, the
First.
Ii was curious to see, in the light
of thirty odd years of history, what
these modest men thought of their
wonderful invention.
They recommended court reporters
to use it.
Then they thought that lawyers,
editors, authors and clergymen might
find it advantageous. And finally they
ventured to suggest that it might APP
peal to business men for correspond
ence purposes.
Well, clergymen, authors and the
rest do use it. And thankfully, too.
But truly, as in many another in
stance, the last has become first.
For of all the letters that pour into
the post offices of the world, more
than half are written on typewriters,
which the invention of that first REM
ington has made possible.
1t would be merely guessing to at
tempt computation of the enlarge.
ment in letter writing that the Rem.
ingtoa has brought about, but the re
suit in figures must be enormous.
But just another glimpse at that
old catalogue, if you please.
1t bears the title "The Type
Writer"
OF course it does. Why should its
inventors give it any other name than
