ant one and one that will ever be
remembered by those present.
While there is always room for
improvement in any line of busi

in the six years he has controlled
the old Press and Standard, done
much for the improvement of his
paper, kis town and his count/.
Those of us who have been with the
paper for man years, are In a posl- {
lion to make this statement. Twen
ty years ago, the paper we« printed
on the old Washington hand press,
at a speed of 150 per hour. Today
wq.print 1200 an hour. We used to
set all the type by hand. Today
sfe have a modern typesetting ma
chine and one man sets up the type
for the entire paper. We have a
modern lighting plant for our of
fice. Everything in the once old
Press and Standard is now new
