Last Sunday’s Charlotte Ob server’s front page carried a story of 10,000 words set on a linotype machine in its plant, but impulsed by an operator in i the New York office of The As- j sociated Press. ! All this operator did was to | punch the keys of a typewriter and feed his copy into a metal I transmising device- The result was t>’pe, set in column-w’idth, in the office of the Observer, 611 miles away. The device, called semagraph, is the invention of Buford L. Green, veteran of 26 years’ ser vice in the Observer composing room. He perfected the sema- graph after 12 years of work, with the co-operation of John P. White, mechanical supervisor of the Observer: W. T. White, and the financial backing of Curtis B. Johnson, the publisher. The typewriter used in New York was a standard machine which, each time it struck off a letter, also printed a “code” fig ure of one to six dots. Each line of copy contained five to seven words, the number that appears in a line of type one column wide. The pages of this copy were fed into a transmitter in which a photo-electric cell picked out the coded dots—the letters—and sent corresponding impulses over the wire to Charlotte. There, in the Observer com posing room, a standard Asso ciated Press printer, equipped with special type bars, recon verted the impulses into letters and their accompanying code dots. This sheet, identical with the original in the New York office, went into the semagraph unit attached to a linotype, and another photo-electric cell trans- formed the dots into impulses that operated the type-setting machine. Ten thousand words were transmitted in the first long distance test of the equipment, and type was produced in Char lotte at the rate of seven line.** a minute- Johnson, who supervised the New York end of the demon- OSTRtCH I66S ARI UnilZfP AS KX)I> IH tSTKtCM COUNTm.

The city councilmen, remembering Large Crowd From Hoke and Moore Counties Enjoy Fish Supper and Program Hoke county’s first community house built under the Works Prog, ress Administration program was dedicated Tuesday evening with fit ting ceremonies participated n by various county officials and attend ed by a large gathering of commun ity people. The building is located In the Lobelia section of Little River Township, which, since the consolida tion of its school with Vass-Lake- view, has been without a public meet ing place of any kind in the com munity except Cypress Church, near the Hoke-Hamett line. I Following a fish supper which w^as 1 served in the grove surrounding the j building, the formal program w’as [ held. “America the Beautiful” was sung, after which the Rev. W. A. j Brow-n spoke the Invocation and gave the address of welcome, to which A. S. Knowles, Hoke county farm agenfc, responded- D. B. Black, district supervisor of WPA work, presented the building to the community and J. W. Smith, donor of the land on which the beau- tiflcally located building stands and members of the board of commission, ers of Hoke county, accepted the keys for the county and community, paying tribute to those who had made the building possible. H. L. Meecham, a former Hoke county agent, was the principal speaker. The theme of his address was /‘Character TIhrough Service" and he stressed the part which it was possible for the community house to play In moulding the character of the people of the community. Mr. Meach- am was presented by Miss Langley, home demonstration agent. Greetings were brought by N, H. G. Balfour, chairman of the board of county commissioners; Mrs. P. P.
