HOW the Newspaper Editor AnnOun-

Country newspaper editors, when
making announcements of additions
to their equipment, frequently, give.
their imaginations free play, with the
result that some interesting speci-
mems are produced, Of which the fol-
lowing, which appeared in the Jeffer-
son (Iowa) Herald under the heading.
"The New Employee in, Our Office, is
good example:
The Herald office has new en-
ployee, who arrived last week from
his birthplace in Brooklyn, New

but was delayed enrouter by the
railroad congestion in the East. The
new employee is one Of the finest to-
be secured anywhere land with his
aid we hope to get the work 4of the
office done more easily and quickly
than ever before, as he can set read
ing-matter, headings, advertisements
or Jobwork faster than any two
printers we have ever. had in the Of.
lice. He never seems to get tired.
never complains if asked to mt in
extra time, never wants to stop for
meals, and is always there before
any OF the other workers arrive al
the office in the morning. His only
recreation is taking lengthy snin
