The Sentinel's new press will be
placed in the spacious basement press
room where the present Cranston
press is located. The press room had

Eight years ago when the late Mr..
! /. n. Bunting installed the Cranston
drum cylinder press he thought that
would answer all purposes for ten or
twelve years, but the growth of The
Sentinel's circulation and size proved
even greater than Mr.. Bunting an
ticipated. The fact that The Senti-
mel had to run ten pages day after
day for weeks at a time in order to
accommodate the news matter ana
advertising made plain the necessity
of a still larger press.
On the installation of the new
press The Sentinel will add another
column to each of its pages, making
it a seven column instead of a SIX
column paper.
Roll paper instead of fiat paper
will be used in operating the new
press. a car load OF the huge rolls

here in few days. The Sentinel has
purchased its paper by the car load
for number of years.
At the same time The Sentinel in
stalls its new press it will install an
up to date sterotyping outfit for the
manufacture of newspaper illustra-
tions, advertising cuts. etc, etc.
Milton n. Clifford, who has been in
the employ of The Sentinel for a con-
siderable period, and who has had
much experience on big presses in
other cities. will be in charge of the
new press after it's installation.
A number of other improvements
are being made at this time.

region will, after the installation of
the new press, have the largest equip

The Daily Sentinel indeed has many
reasons to rejoice.
The business of The Daily Sentinel
in every one of its departments has
grown steadily and extensively from
year to year, showing that our efforts
to give the public a paper worthy of
general, loyal and continual endorse
ment, have been appreciated.
One of the chief aims of the man
who owned The Sentinel and dictated
its policies for seventeen years was
to serve its patrons in the best pos

readers a bigger and better paper to-

was his oft repeated motto, his motto
for every publication day in the year,
