With IA great deal of satisfaction
the editor announces the installat-
ion Of II new Linotype, This mechan-
zeal marvel qualities us to serve
more efficiently the large number of
persons who look to our publication
for enlightenment and entertain
ment, and who patronize our job
printing department. Our old mach
inc had become incapable of the de-
mands made upon our plant.
The rapidly increasing circulation
of the RECORD and NEWS, to
gether with our desire to place at
the demand Of our advertisers and
others the highest grade of typo
graphy, induced US to secure the
latest model composing machine for
the quick and accurate and pleasing
presentation of the news Of the day,
and the production of superior job
work. The cost of this machine and
equipment is $4,000.
This new Linotype enables us to
set by machine many forms Of com
position that could not be produced
on our old machine. The new model
is "a multiple machine on which nine
different type faces can be set at
will. In addition to being electrically
driven, it is equipped with "A Cutler
Hammer electric melting pot which
enables us to do away with the I'M
satisfactory aud costly gas used on
the old machine The electric melt
ing pot is one of the latest improv-
ments to be applied to the Linotype
Our plant is now capable of turn
ing out composition TO answer all
demands. AT high rate of speed
the versatile operator, whose hand
is made famous as "the hand that
keeps the world informed" produces
line after line of any composition
