Iat week Union county adop ted the book tyiwriter for the Iermanent records of the register of deeds office. All the counties around, in this state, are now using the book typewriter, which has many advantages over the slow and tedious hand process of copy ing these records. Ilesidcs the neat appearance of the books and the ease with which they can be examined by any person desiring to do so, the great sating to the county is sufficient to call for the adoption of the typewriter, espe cially so in this time when real es tate changes hands so often and there are so many extra papers to record, that the registers of past years knew little about. Mr. Thomas, register of deeds for this county, estimates that five of the Urge made-to-order books are re quired to hold the records that come in each year. Now these books will cost the county not less than and it is the opinion of Mr. Thomas that books costing the county not more than $15 would. if the book typewriter was used. hold all the records of Ue county for a year. This is true, because the typewriter puts five times as much matter in the same space j can be placed there by hand copy ing. Another point in favor of the machine is the fact that the matter of storing public records is soon to be a problem with this county, and if oiid of typewritten citter will take the place of fire to a small ventilation in the vault. One of the bank officers about town, who was familiar with the combination lock, was secured as soon as possible and Whisnant released.
