WORK BEGINS ON NEW
HOME FOR The TIMES
ON EAST MAIN AVENUE
Everything Will Be MOdern-Spendd Lighting Facilities New
Press Ordered and Will Be Installed on Its ArvaI-Maw
improvements in Newspaper and Job Departments.

In order to take care of it's rapidly
increasing business and, on the prin
ciple of Safety First to be ready to
\handle the business which the newt
able growth of the city and surround
ing country insures for the future,
THE TIMES will shortly, perhaps
within the next six weeks, move to a
new home at No. 25S Main Ave- east,
now being constructed especially for
it. The new structure will be modern
in every respect and will have all the
latest conveniences which go to add to
the efficiency of a modern printing
and publishing house Work is already
under way for the building. A mod
ern press, in keeping with the char
acter of the home, will be installed as
soon as it can be received.
The structure will be twenty-five by
1875 feet in size, with a basement un-
der the front part which will be
eighty feet in length. The front en-
trance will be placed on the west side
facing Main street. The office parti-
ton will be placed thirty-three feet
from the front and will be sound
proof. There will be a modern plate
glass front and over this will be a
glass awning to add to the beauty and
to insure plenty of light for that part
of the building. The arrangement of
all the offices will be made with a
view of the convenience of customers
lhd the efficiency of the members OF
.Zhe several departments.
Behind the offices will be the com
posing room and in the rear the press
room. The press room will have sky
lights arranged in the manner which
experience has demonstrated to be the
most effective for securing the results
desired, besides which there will be
end and side lights. The press room
which extends to the alley, will be
narrowed in order that should anoth-
er building extend that far back in the
future, the efficiency of the side lights
will be unimpaired. Two light wells
of latest style will be placed over the
composing room.
A perfection web press, feeding
from a roll and printing $500 papers
an hour, has been ordered and will bC
INSTALLED on it's arrival. Owing to the
Nrevious orders for this kind of press
10 is anticipated that its delivery viii
be delayed somewhat and the date o
its arrival cannot be definitely stated
With the new press installed, THE
TIMES will have, perhaps, the bes
equipped office in Idaho outside o
Boise. Everything has been designed
with a view of a rapid and large in
crease in the size of the city, and il
anticipation of the probability tha
further increase in machinery will b'
necessary in the near future
The building, which has been con
structed, under a long time lease, fo
THE TIMES, by d. M. Denton, will b'
of glazed white brick, pointed will
red mortar.-and will be as handsome
as convenient. Arrangements TO
night illumination in front are being
made, so that it will prove attractiv
by night as well as by day. The build
ing will be less than block from tn
business center and less than tw
from the banking center of Twin Falls
The second story will be connectei
9th the Weaver apartment rooms
<naking a substantial increase to tn
capacity Of that house.
