Mr. W. T. Blackwell was chosen for that place. The action with regard to the prescription business was the one of most curious interest. There were two passes at this. First, it was agreed that Mr. W. G.

This week The Recorder Job Office has installed a hew 14x20 Peerless job press. This will en able us to.handle our job business in better shape than for some time. The new press will meet our requires snts for the present and our customes will have more prompt service. By installing this new machine an old Golding Jobber goes out, and therein is called to mind of almost every printer in Durham the history of the press while in this city. It was brought here by. D. W. Whitaker from Raleigh 20 odd years ago and has seen much service and a good deal of abuse. When J. A. Robinsfn began the publication of the Sun, a 5 column newspaper, it was print ed on this press one page at a time for several years. D. W. Whitaker, the owner, began the publication of several newspapers on this machine that have since been discontinued. When the present editor of the Recorder and W. W. Thompson, and a prin ter by the name of Gates began the publication of the Morning Herald this press was used, and in fact Messrs. King & Rollins, the present publishers of The Herald, used this pres3 until it was impossible to get out on time, when it was replaced by a cylinder press, ;. t It came into our possession near ly ten years ago, and since that time has been in constant use and has been "Suing good service until an accident broke a vita part that cbutd "not be repaired without sending it the factorv which was nor practical. During that period we have printed near ly every kind of material from a letter head to a shingle, and naturally have a good feeling f( r this make of press. , Our hope is that the new one installed will prove as good and last as long. TaeAtteraatti of the Visit. We have undertaken to repro duce all or a part of what each of the editors who attended the meeting of the North Carolina Press Association week befoie last has had to say of the oc casion and trust that none of these outgivings has been over looked. They have without ex ception been exceedingly agree able and we beg to thank the ed itors in our own behalf and that of the people of Charlotte for the pleasant things they have written of the city. The Ob server people and, we are sure, all the members of the city press as well as the citizens at large had pleasure in the visit of these gentlemen, and of the ladies ac companying them, and look for ward to their return. They have certainly been very handsome in their expressions of appre ciation ana wnue, as we said some days ago, we are sure the city has been the gainer, the State must profit from a new in terest in good roads, born of what the newspaper men have written of those of Mecklenburg. If there had been no other com pensation the coming of the edi tors to Charlotte would have jus tified itself in this. -Charlotte Observer. 4 tttCtf tttt KttttttttttttOttttt ,frefrk--eefrt I CITIZENS NATIONAL BANK : OF DURHAM, N.
