SOME SHOP TALK

IL has been necessary TO install an
additional linotype machine In the Of
flee of The Intelligencer. and the ma
chine has arrived and has been set
up and is doing its full quota of work
on the paper today. This is one OF
the fastest machines on the market,
being known among the trade as the
Model K". and 1t is the latest thing
in type-set.ing.
The installation OF this machine
has been made necessary by the in
crease of the work and OF the bust
ness OF the plant The development
of this paper has been q matter OF
more consequence than even its
friends and well wishers at first sup
posed. Heretofore 1t has been neces-
sary to keep day force and a night
force and even this could not keep
up with the work and the addition of
this great machine was. necessary.
The part about the matter which
particularly pleases this office is
that the machine came and was set
up and put in first class condition by
one OF our own men. Mr.. S. T. Byron,
who is not only one OF the most com
petent operators in the country, bnt
has demonstrated his ability TO set up
machine in a manner that could not
he improved upon by any expert sent
out by the factory. Mr.. Byron last
fall accepted splendid position on
one OF the great papers in New En-
gland, but the call of Anderson was
too strong, and IL is great pleasure
and satisfaction to the management
OF this paper to have him back here,
not only for the good OF this paper,
but because he is good citizen.
With the addition OF the new ma
chine we hope to handle more OF the
sporting news and more of other kind
Of news to which we have had
opportunity to give but limited space.
We will not now announce the ex-
tensions in news service that we have
on foot, but we will do sc at the
proper time. We intend to make this
the best paper in the State.
The additional equipment will also
be of great assistance to the Job de-
partment OF this paper. The patron
age given by the public has been
most satisfactory aad gratifying.
While there has been a great deal
of con1merciaf work turnod out, yet
yesterday marked happy day for
the superintendent. of the Job print
ing department Mr.. II. x. Roper. He
turned out Whist he considers slig I'm
est piece OF work that as,f has done.
ffoln an art istie standpoint. and those
who have seen 1t will not argue the
point with Mr.. Roper that the first
number Of sThe sororian", the annual
ofsthe student body OF Anderson Col
iege is geographically q gem.
This beautifully embossed volume
Ia bound in leather, lined with elk.
and contains more than q hundred
pages of splendid illustrations and en-
cravings. We are speaking of 1t from
a printers standpoint at this time.
Later we will tell more OF the con-
tents. At present we cannot distract
our attention from the handsome IL
Illustrations showing the beautiful
young women or tine institution,
which is SO close to the heart of ev-
cry loyal citizen or Anderson.
The Intelligencer receives the COM
pIete service OF the Associated Press,
like $4,000 words per
night. and this news OF the world will
be given to- the readers, fresh every
It has taken some time to
become established as local morn
ing paper. and the. people.of the city
are sgradually coming to recognize
the value OF having a morning paper
which gives them the news at the
table as Is done in other
cities. Tho Intelligencer intends to
come stronger and stronger all of the
time and to be an institution OF
which Anderson will be proud.
