When the writer assumed the
management OF the Examiner in
1904, the paper was printed on
large job press, and the pages con-
tanned but four columns each. A few
months afterwards a press was in
stalled which enabled us to print
two six-colum pages at a time.
While 1t answered the purpose for
a time, the press was a cheap affair.".
and in April. 1910. 1t was displacce
with what is known as drum cyl
inder press. This was the first CYL
inder press to be brought to Bear
Lake county. It is still doing good
work. although it will not be long
until larger and better press will
be needed to properly handle the
business in the office. In addition
to the better presses added, several
hundred dollars worth of new type
has been placed in the office with
in the past eleven years. These i'm
provements were all made with the
view of keeping up with the times
But as business gradually increased
we found 1t necessary to make an
other investment, II we intended I'd
be up-to-date, so we decided to in.
stall a type-setting machine. with
which one man win be able to do the
work Of three or four under the old
method.
Thus have we tried to keep in
step with the march or progress, but
there are many things yet needed to
make the Examiner office the kind
of print shop we would like tc
have. But this needed equipment
will come in time.
