Show ACCIDENTS WILL HAPPEN HAPPE N i As we read our article in last weeks issue we were dismayed to find so many typographical errors but when we reached the end and read the tiny filler which was somehow the thing we needed to overcome the disappointment we felt we could but see sec the funny side and while we admit that our article 91 stuttered we know it was not exaggerated since we aim to speak only truth the filler read history may not repeat itself accurately but it stutters and exaggerates we are told that nothing happens by chance and it may be that our 41 unseen helpers directed the place went ment of that little filler in exactly that spot or it may be that our editor thought it was appropriate to our article be that as it may the point we would make in regard to the errors is that this particular article somehow got by the editor s desk for its second or third reading hence we would like to repeat in this corrected form this also gives us opportunity to say that we believe no other paper of the size and content of ours in its present improved form has greater handicap under which to work in so far as equipment is concerned only ohly it if you know or are familiar ath the mechanism of a linotype machine could you possibly understand the difficulty under which our operator works all because of the imperfect and worn out parts on our machine which cause letters to drop or which fail to fall in proper position when the keys are truck struck and of un forseen mishaps in other parts of the machinery which makes it necessary to reread re read our copy averal times becore it is published think therefore what it will mean when we can replace this machine with the new one we are so eager to have only because we do not have the initial payment which is of too great an amount for us to bear in connection with so much other overhead expense are we nye obliged to carry on patiently with present conditions some day all of these handicaps will be removed and then you may expect a more perfect and improved paper in all ways in the meantime mc antimo we are grateful to pur our workers coworkers co who labor under great stress and must meet so many emergencies in in i order to send your paper to you on the appointed day of publication each week |
