"Tlittle pleasure.We felt good for awhile on Monday aed feel impelled to tell you about "it. The old machine had the old time ring about it and we knew tna*. the lines weffe falling and we wouid i net have to take so many revises and the print would be better. The .joy will net last long we fear as the two young men who were at the keyboard can not remain with us. Mr. J. F. Jacobs in response to our phone call kindly consented to let Mr. Frank Hammond remain until noon and then our soldier boy came home on Sttnday^rlght for his first visit since ao 11 -Pr\-r? f^AAne ono c mnpH tuc I CIO c vai l iv/i uvvyo utiu. mo as we regretted to do it we had to ask him to take the keyboard^ in the t afternoon a'id so the type went up in the old way and we felt good if only < for a brief spell but that was some relief. Pardon us for talking so much shop but we can't help it. OUR APPRECIATION. For the past several months we Blight say we have .been short on a linotype operator, and now we have aone at all, and but for the kindness our friend Frank Hammond, who is bow working for Jacobs and Company at^ Clinton, we would be in bad shape indeed, bi:t he kin/lly consented to J O A fnv ume uuwu uu oujuuav uua ?wiv us so as to get out tl^is pa^er. (What we will ('o for the next we do not know, but there will be a way. X What we started to say, however, is that our thanks and appreciation are due Mr. W. H. Wallace of the Observer for kindly lending us type from time to time, and when our press broke giving us the use of his so that we night not miss an issue. And then to cap the climax, our mascot, who was requested to light I OMASHIIS 1^ of livim a long time, prompted n I aim to turn this we are shoes on ha your shoes. r*i . T I?* ouits.

J and he might get out as much tppe as 1 t possible, lighted it, but, like the fool- j ish virgins, did not put any gas in the lamp, and of course it did not burn I long and we lost two hours of val uable time getting the metal hot. But we have one on our contempo : rarv, and we hope he will not be ofi fended for a little pleasantry. Even J with his swift operator and we with ; practically none, we managed to print ! the full text of President Wilson'sj I message, while he had to continue thp story for the next issue. But we have been carrying over our Prosperity let- | ter and the proceedings of court sim- j ply because the man we had could not , get the matter set, and we had to re- j sort to plate matter on the first page i in order to make our mails, and then * Ar/\n oAmAfi'mfto liOT'a j ^ * cii. ovyjuat/ UULll^O TY ^ UUI g UJllO^VU v^-*. Why the linotype operators are so ' scarce we do not know, unless they ' have all gone to war and the demand | is increasing for them at the same ! time. We asked Fred Dominick to ! send us one from Washington and he j promised to do it, but up to this time J we have not heard a word from him. He had better help us alon^ now in our time of stress, because there may come a time when we could help him just a little. But remember, if you do | send us one do not do like the one who j started for Manning and landed in Anj derson ard went to work and left Appelt in the same condition he was. If any one knows of an operator that would like to have a good job please ; let us know, but we want an operator,' 1 the price does not matter. A good one j i is cheaper at a high price, for our ex perience in the last few months is that a poor one is dear at any price. A brighter day is dawning.. The war will be over attsr awhile and wnen ! peace comes things will get down to j normal. We are now and have been ! for some time going through a great (transition period in the world's his-.
