THIS IS YOUR NEWSPAPER !
Our aim is to be of service to this community and it*
people.
The Ingersoll Tribune joins with the other member*
of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers’ Association in
observing for the first time
Newspaper Appreciation Week
Oct. 1st to Oct. 8th
An event designed to better acquaint the people of
Canada with the many and important service* the
weekly newspaper* render.
Canadian Weeklies Praised For
Part Played In War Service
1 am pleased to note the increasingly active part taken by
the weekly newspapers of Canada, in lending their influence in
the extension of services which have to do with the active
prosecution of Canada's part in the grim European struggle.
Tribute* to the solidarity of our effort have been given by
eminent public men.
It is not our wish or desire however, to be content with en
comiums from influential source*. The weekly newspaper has
a definite place in the economic and social life of the country,
and its united service to Canada in time of war is a tribute to
the singleness of purpose with which Canadians are meeting the
crisis. The influence of the weeklies is at last recognized, and
fortunately, the publishers themselves are, through well-directed
effort, meriting much of this recognition.
The part being played in the national emergency, by weekly
newspapers, is worthy of their high place as auxiliary agencies
in promoting public service. Governments are quick to recognize
the influence exerted by the weeklies, and are ready to recognize
their efforts in a manner not heretofore apparent. It is our respon.
sibility to justify such recognition through unrelenting earnest
ness of purpose, and continued acknowledgment of onr obligation
in safeguarding the national welfare.
May I, in conclusion, renew the appeal of onr Association
to every weekly publisher and every citizen in Canada, to permit
no lagging in our support of the national war effort, nor to falter
in the task of meeting in full measure, the community interest*
committed to onr care. The prestige of the weekly newspaper
has grown to new heights; let u keep it there through loyal and
disinterested service to home and country.
1 hope "Newspaper Week” may be instrumental in further
emphasizing the need of enlarging our contact with each other,
and improving our Association service and the service of our
respective newspaper*.

Weeklies On Unselfish Service
During my fourteen year* in public life 1 have come to
regard Ontario'* weekly newspaper* a* one of onr chief assets—
a* accurate interpreter* and consistent moulders of that typo
of thought and opinion which, while always valuable, i* most
needed and best appreciated in testing time* like the present.
They give unselfishly of their support to every worthy enter
prise. To everyday problems, large and small, they bring a
dispassionate appreciation and a quietly effective treatment that
are much to be envied. They are irreplaceable links with the
homelife that must be re-established solidly here if our post-war
fntnre is to mean anything to u*. Generally, they provide a
steadying influence that extend* far beyond their own immediate
field of operation.
With "Newspaper Week" about to bo celebrated, let mo
congratulate the Ontario Weeklies on their achievement* ot the
past and wish them every success in the day* ahead.

Presentation Made To H. K.

On His Departure Fran Ing
ersoll.
The regular meeting of the Inger
soll Lions Club held last week in the
banquet hall of the St. Charles Hotel
Coffee Shop, was well attended.

the chair and the guest speaker was

Quebec-Maritime District of Kiwanis
International, who took for his sub
ject, "What Makes It Tick.'*
A new member in the person of
Albert Glazer, was received into the
club, by President Cliff. Hines, who
presented him with a Lions pin. An
nouncement was made that Ladies*
Night would be held on October 22,
with the District Governor, Charles.
Bennett of Paris, as special guest.
The speaker was introduced by
Lion Alex. H. Edmonds. Mr. Johnston
gave a thought inspiring address,
comparing service clubs to a clock.
He said that the work of service
clubs was measured as they went
along like the hours were calculated
by the clock. He urged the members
to see that their club had a real
purpose in the community other than
just to hold regular supper meetings,
as is was by its good works that a
club was mea/ured. The members
must work clockwise, or together, as
the movements of a clock if they
were to achieve the greatest success.
He advocated that they plan their
work and be consistent in carrying
out the plans, as steady pulling to
gether would accomplish much. En
thusiasm was to a club ui was the
main spring to a clock and one of
the duties of the officers and direct
ors was to see that the necessary
sparks were provided to keep the en
thusiasm burning brightly.
Lion Fred €. Moore tendered the
thanks of the club to Mr. Johnson for
his address.
Regret was expressed by President
Hines at the loss of the club's effic
ient treasurer, Lion H. K. Edward,
who is being transferred by his bank
to a position in King and Church,
street branch of the Royal Bank at’
Toronto. On behalf of the club mem
bers, Past President Fred Bigham
presented Mr. Edward with a lovely
Parker pen and pencil set. The recip
ient thanked the Lions for their kind
remembrance and stated that he was
sorry to sever his connections with
the club.

Further Credit Given
Continued recognition of the value of a progress,
ive weekly newspaper to the citixens of every com
munity has often been given by both civic and indus
trial leaders throughout Canada. These leaders in
state and commercial affairs have not hesitated to
give the weekly papers due credit for the work which
they have performed in helping to keep the towns
and cities in which they published in step with modern"
progress. Recently The Calgary Herald, in welcoming
the delegates to the annual convention of the Can
adian Weekly Newspapers Association, gave further
recognition to the wwkly newspapers and their edi
tors, when it said editorially:
"The. people of Alberta are glad to welcome the
representatives of 8hu weekly press of Canada to the
province, and the city of Calgary feels itself hon
ored in having been chosen as their convention
centre for 1940.
“There have been surprising changes in the news
paper world in the past two decades. Newspapers
have become subject to mechanization just as have
other branches of human activity. New inventions and
the speeding up of communications have had a marked
effect on newspaper production.
‘^However, the weekly newspapers have held their
own in a highly competitive field. This has been
largely owing to the exceptional service rendered to
their communities by their alert, aggressive editors.
These communities which possess newsy, well-printed
and well-edited weekly newspapers should realize the
great advantage to them of having such a medium in
their midst As a general rule, the progressiveness
of a village or town can be accurately measured by
the appearance of the weekly newspaper.
“Admittedly the editor of the weekly newspaper
maintains a closer contact with the people he serves
than is possible in the. daily field. In such a position
he has an opportunity to gain the confidence of his
readers and give wise and patient leadership in the
community. At no other time in Canada’s history
was such a service more important than at the pres
ent. Editors of weeklies are now making a real con
tribution in this respect to the nation.”
Now Understanding of Advertising'sFunctionEibart Hubbard once said that Advertising wastelling peopte who .von were, where you wvr« and
what you had to offer in the way of good*, talent or
commodity.
. , . and for twenty years, this served advertis
ing men aa a definition of advertising.
Today, we have a new understanding of advertis
ing whxh might be defined •*, “Advertising is making
people ruAhre that they NEED what you have to
offer.”
Lt u pretty generally understood that successful
advertising must be written from the viewpoint of the
buyer ... we must either aim to talk of supplying a
need of the prtisjK-ctive buyer and user, or, make the
reader realite a need.
Telling people who you are and where they can
buy your goods fa rs<-ntial . . . though a minor ek-
Too many advertisements are prepared from the
viewpoint of the maker or distriliutor . . . and too
’ little thought is given to the (Useful requirement’ or
utility angle.Advertisers should study the buyer’s problem. Tell
him why he needs your goods and how he can use
them. Aim first to get his attention, then to arouse
his interest and your advertisements will begin to
produce more profitable rewrite for you.
The Weekly Newspaper Increases in Favor
Recently a prominent writer on a New York paper,
paid this tribute to the influence of the weekly press:
“With us the small town and country news
paper which fa mo^t often a weekly journal is
more influential than the daily press. A weekly
newspaper which is read and absorbed in the se
clusion and comparative leisure of a small town or
the farm is likely to exercise a greater pull on its
reader than the daily paper, crammed with a be
wildering array of reading matter and consumed
amid the distraction of urban life.”
The intimate relationship the "weekly bears to itslocal readers, gives it a distinct advantage over the
metropolitan daily, which, as the writer above says,
must be read amid the distractions of urban life, and
undur confusing conditions arx-ing from the "bewild
ering array of reading matter.” Gradually the influ
ence of the weekly newspaper is being recognized.
The maintenance of a high standard of service to the
public will ensure that a weekly must grow in popular
favor, both as a medium for the sale of merchandise,
and an influence in the trend of public policies.
Fighting Your Battles On Canada's
“Home Front”
There can be no blackout of democracy while the
Canadian Weekly Newspapers counter-attack propa
ganda with a barrage of well-aimed facts 1
As custodians of a Free Press, we the publishers,
editors and staff members of this newspaper enlist
all our forces to fight for recognition of this vital
issue: A Free Press and Democracy are inseparable.
Violate one and you crush the other. Silence one
and you destroy the very foundation of the other.
We have tasted one bitter fact from the cauldrons
of totalitarianism into which have already been poured
millions of live sacrifices: dictators don’t begin by
using the sword to delude their people; they first
use the pen, making the columns of their “news”
papers the mouthpiece of their ill-directed lies and
empty promises.
But such delusion is not for thoee of us who are
honestly, fearlessly, wholeheartedly Canadian. Thanks
to a Free Press, and a courageous and wisely directed
weekly press, the Canadian people are the best in
formed the world. Freedom of the Press is guaran
teed to the people by our government and it shall
not peridh as long as the people maintain a Free Preu I
Stand with the publishers of Canada’s weekly news
papers in the battle of democracy. With a Free Press
as your most powerful weapon against dictatorial
dcepotiim, there shall be NO SURRENDER for Can
ada and Canadians.
A Free 'Press constitutes the first line of defense
in the battle for the maintenance of democracy.
The weekly newspaper is an all-important factor in
the upbuilding of the nation because it has such an
intimate touch with the homes in the smaller com
munities throughout Canada.
The First Newspapers
It is generally believed that the Chinese founded
the first newspaper that was e/er. printed, but the
exact date of its establishment! is unknown. The
Acta Diurna, a daily sheet, wasXissued by the Ro
mans, before the Christian era, but it was in manu
script form, not printed. Another manuscript news
paper, the Gazette, was issued in Venice as early as
the year 1536. There is a tradition that a printed
newspaper was published in Nuremberg in 1457, but
no copy of it is extant. It is known that the Germans
printed the first newspaper published in Europe, the
date being about 1612, The first one printed in
England was in 1622, and in France, 1631. The first
Journal, a pamphlet rather than a newspaper, to be
printed m America appeared on September 25, 1690.
This was under the name of Public Occurrences, and
was soon suppressed J>y the authorities. The Boston
Gazette made its appearance December 21, 1719, The
American Weekly Mercury of Philadelphia appearing
one day later. The New England Courant, upon which
Benjamin Franklin began (his career as a printer^ and
which was edited and printed by his brother, James
Franklin, was established in 1721. The Pennsylvania
Gazette of Philadelphia was started by Samuel Kei-
mer in 1728, and wu bought by Benjamin Franklin
about one year later. It took the name of The Satur
day Evening Past in 1821, and is still issued under
this title, ’ be'.ng the oldest, existing Journal in
America.

PRINTING, THE MOTHER OFPROGRESS, CELEBRATES ITS
500th ANNIVERSARY
The Far East Gave Us Paper
The first countries that are known to have carried
on the manufacture of paper are Egypt, China and
Japan, and according to the Chinese the fabrication of
paper from cotton and other vegetable fibres was in
vented by them in the second century B.C. Papyrus,
the so-called paper of ancient Egypt, was made from
a plant of that name, and was used extensively in
early times. The knowledge and use of paper of
the kind known to the Chinese, wt, passed from the
east to the west, and was introduced into Europe by
the Arabs, and Spain is believed to have been the
first European country in which paper from cotton
was made, probably in the eleventh century. Ik.
manufacture spread to Italy, France, Germany and
many other countries in a very short time, the
earliest known manufactory in England having been
set up in 1495. The first paper mill in America was
established in 1690 by William Rittenhouse, near
Germantown, Pennsylvania.
Pardon Our Pride
Few indeed have not heard someone of advancing
years reach back in memory to yearn for things as
they were a generation ago. Usually such comment
introduces a discourse that disparages modem devel
opment and progress to laud institutions and life of
that older day.
But have you ever heard anyone voice a sincere
desire for a return of the newspaper of a by-gone era?
We never have.
The newspaper of today has grown and extended
its public services in unison with the advance of civil
ization. It has earned its presenfplace of Prestige
through proven service as a powerful economic and
social influence representing the befit interests of the
community it serves.
Helping Britain
Nazi bombs are demolishing American isolationism
faster than British homes. They are failing to des^
troy moral or military resistance in Britain but are
building it up in the United States. That is the
simplest meaning of the vote in the latest Gallup poll
showing 52 per cent of Americans ready to aid Brit
ain even, at the risk of war. In June the figure was
only 36 per cent. As late as July, 61 per cent thought
“keeping out of war” was more important than help- ,
ing Britain, but now for the first time that view is in
the minority.
These figures reflect a- revolution in American
'opinion as great as that in Britain following ‘the
seizure of Prague by the Nazis. The fall of France
jolted the people of the United States into new aware
ness of their own unpreparednes. But at first they
questioned the possibility of Britain holding out.
They felt a bit as the British did about France:
Would sending help be to lose it? DajTby day that
question has come nearer to a final negative nnuwer.
Tne magnificent spirit pf the British and their effect
ive resistance have won both the admiration and the
confidence of America.
(Mh official and lay opinion hari come to see that
Britain, is far from beaten, has a good proapcct of
winning. The claim of London officiate that only 2% of
British oil reserves have been destroyed, only one
aircraft factory :<-rioufily damaged, and that truns-
port ia only slightly interrupted, is supported by the
ancenjorcd report'! o{ American military observers
just returned.’ General Strong's testimony ap to the
efficiency and spirit of the Royal Air Force and the
accuracy of British figures on German loaoee adds to
hte declaration that no serious military damage has
been done even in London.
Since June, American*, have bicorns convinced not
.only that Britain is worth belpii< but they can help
themselves most effectively by aiding her. We do not ,
believe tho fact that'll majority—if tin, poll ia ac
curate—-have cc-iu^d"to put “kivpijir; -awe war”

jnany of them, favor aid to .Britain as a means of
keeping war away from Axnsriea. The ’ shift is a
The invention of printing from
movable metal type is associated, ac
cording to the beat available evi
dence, with the name of Johann
Gutenberg, who lived in the cities of
Mains and Strasbourg, on the Rhine,
during the first half of the fifteenth
century. Other claims for the credit
of the invention have been made,
such as that on behalf of Lourens
Janszoon Coster of Harlem, in the
Netherlands, but for which the evi
dence seems, in the most part, spur
ious. Block printing, that is printing
from symbols carved in wood blocks,
was known and practised much ear
lier, perhaps as early as the eighth
century, in China.
Movable types of porcelain, wood
and metal were used in China from
1041 onwards, but knowledge of
their use does not seem* to have
spread beyond the Orient The
Chinese, too, discovered how to make
paper in the second century—and
knowledge of this process was car
ried eastward at intervals through
the centures, till it reached Western
Europe about a thousand years later.
By the fifteenth century the Euro
peans too, were printing from wood-‘
en blocks, large blocks on which a
picture with a legend, or perhaps the
words of a much-used manuscript
were cut in high relief, then inked
and an impression taken on a sheet
of vellum or paper. A number of
these sheets printed on one or both
sides and fastened together, was
called a block book. Block books
were just coming into use, when sud
denly (for a decade fa but an in
stant of time in the cultural history
of man) beween 1-535 and 1545,
some one invented and perfected a
process for making individual letters
of metal. These letters could be
“composed" into words, printed, then
“distributed" for further composi
tion.
Prior to the invention of printing,
books had to be written by hand.
For this laborious task, scribes were
engaged by families, business firms,
schools or court officials. To own a
book was a mark of distinction, and
there would be few families who
would own more than one book. The
education of children from books
was exceedingly limited, since even
the essential Latin grammar and
any other texts would have to be
written by hand. The researches of
scholars had to be copied and re
copied, with errors creeping into
every copy. News was conveyed by'
word of mouth or by written mes
sage, and sometime:., with hazards
♦f travel, it arrived, garbled and
late, perhaps too late. The enormous
volume of printed material which we
now use in the ordinary and extraor
dinary occupations of every day
should scarcely be taken for granted
without a thought of how it has
come to us. It is the product of the
inventive genius and painstaking
industry of man, of the minerals,
timber and power derived from'our
earth. An accomplishment of a rela
tively short period in the history of
mankinJ, it is our inheritance to be
cherished in further experimentation
and development, and in use, to ex
tend knowledge, the perception of
beauty and enjoyment of the com
forts of modem life.
Johann Gutenberg, bora about
1400, was a member of a patrician
family in IMainz connected with the
mctal-wurking trade. A serious con
flict with certain Craft Guilds (the
Trades* Unions of those days) drove
the family from.IMainz, and in 1434
or earlier, Gutenberg was working
ing the neighbouring city of Stras
bourg. He occupied himself - with
mechanical inventions, and from 1436
onward he was preoccupied with
their application to printing. He ex
perimented with metals of different
kinds for making type, cut the metal
patterns of type bodies with indiv
idual letter faces on .the end. From
the patterns he struck matrices, and
constructed a mould in which to
cast' accurate reproductions of the
type in large quantities. The prin
ciple of the press had long been
known and applied in the making of
wine and cheese, then adapted to
making . imp regions from wood
blocks. Now Gutenberg further ad
apted it to printing from movable
metal types, Fiobubly associated
with Gutenberg in Mme wuy was
one, Andrew Dritzehn, in whose
house in Strasbourg the press was
erected and the tools and equipment
kept. That the invention was re
garded as potentially of great com-
. mercial value is shown by ,the fact
that the processes were guarded
carefully, and by the further fact
that on the death of Dritzehn, his
brothers, in 1539, brought suit to
claim rights in Gutenberg's outfit—
without success. It is one of the
curious ironies of history that the
records of this trial “foundation
stones in the ediface of fame erected
to one of Germany’s national heroes”
should have been destroyed when
the Prussians took Strasbourg in
1870.
The inventor continued improving
Ms technique, and from time to time
have survived to the present time.
Towards the end of this experimen
tal period Gutenberg cast a complete
new font of type. But as his talents
turned to mechanical rather than
financial achievement, he was oblig
ed to pledge his possessions for a
Joan of cash to Johann Fust, a man
of capital in Mainz, whither Guten
berg returned about 1448. With
bust was associated a young tech
nician named Peter Shoeffer, who
later became his son-in-law and part
ner. Fust and Schoeffer were com
mercially minded and with the bene
fit of Gutenberg’s inventive genius
they produced the first great monu
ment to the invention of typography,
a Bible. This the “Gutenberg" or
42-line Bible”, was printed on 1282.
large folio pages of two columns
each, and with 42 lines to the col
umn. It bore no printer's name nor
date, but the work was completed
some time before August, 1456, and
by that time Fust A Schoeffer had
eased Gutenberg out of the enter
prise, keeping his equipment, which
had secured the loan.
Gutenberg retained bis earlier
types and from these about 1460,
was printed another Bible, 36 lines
to the page. Fust & Schoeffer m
the meantime had prepared an edi
tion of the Psalter, the most beauti
ful work, it is said, -ever printed —
large pages of text in black and red,
with decorative capitals of intricate
design, in three glowing colors and
perfect impression. This book bore
the date 1457, with printer’s name
and trade-mark. Their mark of
crossed shield? has been perpetuated
as the symbol of the International
Association of Printing House
Craftsmen.
Gutenberg's name never appeared
upon any book printed from his
types and he died an obscure figure
in 1468. But the brilliant achieve
ments of typography in subsequent
years have been the most gratifying
eulogium an inventor would desire.
And, now five hundred years later,
almost every country in the world;
acclaims him as one of the greatest
modern benefactors of mankind.
It has been stated that of all the
world’s inventors, two stand out pre
eminently in the advancement of
literature and education—Ts’ai Lun,
tiie inventor of paper, (China, A.D.
105), and Gutenberg, the originator
of movable types (.1440).
From Mainz, printing spread into
Italy, France and the Netherlands.
In 1474-76, William Caxton, an Eng
lish merchant, resident in the Low
Countries, learned how to print and
produced in his own English trans
lation, the first book ever printed
in English: Recuyeil of the Hys-
torye* of Troye, a popular classic
tale of the fall of Troy. Soon after
wards he returned to England with,
printing types and pet up shop hear
Westminster Abbey. So the story of
printing in the English-speaking
world begins with <Gaxton. The year
after Caxton died, Columbus discov
ered a new continent acroap the At
lantic Ocean, and the first governor
there, the Viceroy of New . Spain,
had a printing press brought to
Mexico City about 1535, the first in
America.
The next one came from England
to New England in 1638, to be set
up by Stephen Daye and his two
sons at Cambridge, Massachusetts,
under direction of Harvard College
just then opening its doors. Daye’s
first substantial work appeared in
1640. It was a book certain of sale
among the Puritan settlers in the
Colony of Massachusetts Bay, The
Whole Booke of Puritans, or as it is
generally known,. “The Bay Psalm
Book”. Daye printed 1700 copies of
this book and not more than a dozen
are known today. It is called the
most valuable book ever printed on
paper. Daye’s successor <was Samuel
Green and Samuel’s grandson, Bar-
tbolemew, brought a press to Hali
fax in 1851. Bartholemew’s associ
ate, John Bushell, carried on the
work following the former's sudden
death, and became Canada's first
printer and founder of its first news
paper, the Halifax Gazette.
So far as can be determined with
Johanne* Gutenberg who invented printing by movable type in
1449 i. portrayed bore showing the first proof of his work to Ms
partner, Johan Fust.
any certainty there was no printing
Aop in Quebec, or Nouvelle France
as it was called, during the French
regime. On at least three occasions
however, requests were made of per
sona in authority for the privilege of
establishing a press. Jesuit mission
aries in Quebec applied for a prin
ting press in 1665; the Sulpicians in
Montreal made the same request of
the Superior of their order in Paris,
1683. In 1749, M. de la Galiraion-
niere asked the Minister of Marine
and Colonies for the same privilege,
but his request like the others was
denied.
After Nouvelle France became the
British colony of Quebec in 1763,
two young printers employed in the
office of William Dunlap, Benjamin
Franklin’s brother-in-latw in Phila
delphia, ventured into Quebec and
announced the publication of a
weekly newspaper. The Quebec Gaz
ette, published in English and French
in parallel columns, appeared first
on June 21, 1764, and continued
with but two brief interruptions until
1874-^a remarkable record for a
pioneer publishing firm. Brown and
Gilmore printed many books in Eng-'
lish or French or both. In both they
printed all the laws and government
publications. One of most interesting
of their productions is a Canadian
edition of the Stamp Act, dated
Quebec, 1766. In the meantime Mon
treal had got itsi first printer, Fleury
Mesplet, who arrived also from Phil
adelphia, in 1776, and twWve years
later launched the Montreal Gazette.
The first printing done in Upper
Canada was at Newark, now Niag-
ara-on-the-lake, where in 1793 Lieu-
tenanfaColonel John Graves Simcoe,
the Lieutenant Governor set up a
French Canadian, Louis Roy, whom
he had brought with him from Que
bec. Two pamphlets one entitled
The Speech of His Excellency John
Graves Simcoe, and the other The
Acts of the Legislature of Upper
Canada, were printed by Roy early
in the year. The first newspaper was
the Upper Canada Gazette which ap
peared on April 18, 1793. The first
publishing house in the modern sense
of tiie word, that is, an organization
which assumes the risk of publishing
manuscripts, and sets up a sales or
ganization to distribute them, was
probably the 'Ryerson Press, which
developed from the printing office
which Egerton Ryerson founded to
print that famous old Mehodist
paper, the Christian Guardian.
The first press west of Ontario
was constructed at Norway House,
in Manitoba, about one hundred
years ago—one of the most ingen
ious ever made. James Evans, a mis
sionary to the Indians, wanted a
printing outfit to further his religious
and .educational work. He couldn’t
’inport one, for the ’Hudson Bay Co.,
which controlled the area, declined,
to undertake its transportation. Ho
he made what he required: type, of
lead from tea boxes, cast in wooden
moulds which ho cut for the purpose;
ink, from chimney root; for paper,
birch-bark. His press was the old fur
press used in the Company’s trading
posf. Mis type is very interesting,
for the face shows not letters of our
alphabet, but Cree syllables which
Evans himself invented, symbols by
wMch he represented the sounds of
the Cree dialect, and in which he
printed spelling and hymn books for
the Indiana
Local printing appeared on the
West Coast in 1858 when the rush
for gold was on. Four newspapers
were started in Victoria within six
months, of which one, The Colonist,
still appears.
The invention of modern printing
machinery is a story in itself which
cannot be told here. One rather
astonishing fact is that no substantial
changes in the original mechanical
operations were made during the
first four hundred yean after its in
vention. The manufacture of printing
machinery is comparatively recent
in its history. It has now reached the
stage of a large-scale industry and
printing machines are known to be
both as precise and as complicated
as almost any modern industrial
machinery.
But, prior to 1865, printing was
largely a hand craft. There were
rather crude power presses for
newspapers, but all type had to be
set by hand. Presses for the produc
tion of commercial work developed in
the second quarter of the nineteenth
century. The first rotary press ap
peared in America in 1865. The lino
type machine for casting and rotting
type was invented by Ottmar Mer-
genthaler in .Baltimore, 1885, and
put into use the following year by
the New York Tribune. The Mono
type machine, also for type casting
and setting, was invented by Tolbert
Lanston, in Washington, 1887. From
the primitive large thread screw
press operated by hand, there was
made a faster screw press. Then
operating levers replaced the screw,
and iron frames replaced the wooden
frames Hort-e power added to
man power; then mechanical power
replaced the horse. Stereotyping be
gan as early as 1812, with David
Bruce and lithographing, a process
discovered by youne Alois Senefel
der about 1800. Photoengraving
(1880) and modern lithographic pro
cesses however are quite recent de
velopments.
Modern printing machinery tells its
own story.
The printing and publisMng indus
try has so extended its services in
the community that it. occupies a
place of primary importance in the
economic life of the country. In
Canada, in 1938 (latest figures avail
able, 2,273 printing, publishing and
book-binding plants, representing an
investment of $118,243,293, employ
ed 37,459 men anJ women, on a pay

HISTORICAL PRINTING PRESSOLDEST EXISTING IN CANADA
IS GRAPHIC ARTS FEATURE
ertson in 1901, and stored in the
Melinda street window of The
Evening Telegram for many years,
was a feature of the Graphic Arts
Display in the General Exhibits
Building at the G.N.E. this year.
The old and valued press was a
feature of an exhibit sponsored by
a special committee of the graphic
arts industry, marking the 500th
anniversary of printing.
The ancient press dates back to
1780, at least. It was bought by
Louis Roy, the King's Printer at
Niagara from Samuel Neilson, the
printer of the Quebec Gazette. It
was used to print the Upper Canada
Gazette or American Oracle, official
paper of the Government in 1793-4.
The press may next have been own
ed by Gideon Tiffany who succeed
ed Louis Roy in 1796-7. When T.
G. Simons became King’s Printer,
he bought the press and used it at
Niagara in 1797-8.
In September, of 1798, Simons
moved to Toronto and operated the
press under the firm name of Wat
ers and Simons. At that time the
King's printing office was in a small
cottage built by the late Andrew
Mercer on the southeast corner of
the present Bay and Wellington
streets. In Robertson’s landmarks
of Toronto this interesting quota
tion is found: “The office was cer
tainly in that house during the
war of 1812-15, for the late Andrew
Mercer often spoke of the mischief
that the Americans had done to the
printing office.”
The press was shifted about in the
ensuing years from one King’s Prin
ter's office to another. In 1844 it
was acquired by an old printer
1357 and it was in his family’s
possession until the turn of the
century. In 1901 John Ross Robert
son purchased the press from Mrs.
Foster a daughter of Hill, and four
years later he presented it to the
Province of Ontario.
For many years the press stood in
a glass case in the Normal School
Museum. 'Recently it was found in
the basement of the Parliament
Buildings to where it was removed
when the museum was closed.
The exhibit at the C.NJS. included
two other presses of unusual inter
est. The first a replica, made at
the Montreal Technical School, of
the press used by Gutenberg himself
at Strasbourg m 1440. The second,
the. press used by William Lyon
Mackenzie to print his historical
Colonial Advocate in Toronto from
1824 to 1835.
Other features of the exhibit were
examples of color photography
work, the manufacture of printer’s'
ink, bookbinding and maiyr other
crafts of the graphic arts industry.
A number of old books, handbills
and newspapers were also on dis
play. Among them the oldest print
ed book in Canada published in
Strasbourg in 1468. A wide assort
ment of old school readers was also
shown.
“In Africa,” said the missionary
on leave, addressing a village Sun

square miles where there are not

Hardly anyone not evep the publisher—-knows how
important a newspaper is to a community.
The smaller the town or village, the more important
the newspaper is in its economic life. Its news, editorials, and features focus the interest of surroundingterritory on the town in which the paper is published.
This force and the force of advertisements by localmerchants build an ever-widening trade area. Thismean? more business a. bigger Main Street, more
money for schools, churches and homes—a bigger andbetter Ingersoll.

ed a voca soo aqkl Mrs. Fillmore read
a short prayer .'on “Faith.” Mrs. WLangdon and Miss Jean McGee fav
ored with a voeal duet. Mrs. Ross’address on educational work among
the Indians, particularly at RoundLake, Mantaba, was unusually in
teresting. Mrs. Roas described theboarding school and told of its rou
tine. She spoke of the genuine qualities of the Indians and how they
are dominated by the white man.Many stories of pupile whom she
teaches made her address most im
pressive. Afternoon tea was served
during a social half hour at the close
of the meeting.
IkKA'ased was a son of the lute Mr.
and Mrs. Robert McNiven, and was
born in South Dorchester Township,
Elgin County. He would have been
79 years of age on October 15th had
he lived. He attended school at St.

at New Glasgow and Wardsville and
for a short while at Dunn’s School,
north of Ingersoll. He retired from
the teaching profession early in life
and for nearly fifty-five years farm
ed in West Oxford Township, prev
ious to coming to Ingersoll to retire
about ten years ago.
Mr. McNiven was of a retiring
disposition. He had a wide circle of
friends and was most highly esteemed
by all who knew him. Deceased was
a member of St. Paul’s Presbyterian
Church, Ingersoll.
Surviving besides his widow are
three sons, Andrew P. McNiven, De
troit, Michigan; Town Clerk and
Treasurer, Robert McNiven, Inger
soll and Lachlan McNiven at home;
also two daughters, Mrs. Charles
Christie, (Jean), Ingersoll, and Miss
.1 Margaret McNiven at home.
The funeral was held from his
late residence, 119 Charles street
west, on Tuesday afternoon, where
an impressive service waa conducted
2.30 o’clock by Rev. Dr. H. H.
Turner, minister of St. Paul’s Pres-
byteriann Church. Although of a pri
vate nature the service was largely
; attended by relatives and intimate
friends testifying to the high esteem
1 in which deceased was held, as did
the many beautiful floral tokens.
Interment was made in the Ingersoll
Rural Cemetery, the pall bearers
being Messrs. Dugald Me Vicar, Rob
ert McVicar, Archie Patterson, Wil
liam Goodwin, Angus Armur and
William Armur.

While the residents of this village
slumbered on Friday night, burglarsraided two business places but only
were awarded around $10.00 in cashfor their trouble. Entrance was made
to H Bowlb/s store through a cellarwindow, knocking over a huge oil
drum, but though this must have
nude considerable noise it failed toarouse any one and not until morn
ing did the proprietor discover anundetermined number of coppers had
been taken from the till The burg
lars* other venture gained morewhen entrance was gained to Allan
Campbell’s pool room and barber
shop through a back door 4nd a pinmachine was broken opfen and its
contents taken and abput $5 wasmissing from the till. / Both places
entered are on Catherine street and
were also the scene of a former raidby thieves some moftths ago. Pro
vincial Constable MacMillan was called and started an investigation.
The'first aid a/d home nursingclass which is h^ld each Saturday
evening in the United Church, underthe auspices of the Red Cross Society,
is being well at/ended. About 60 enrolled the first/night, but this number is increa&cii to over 70. Thetalks and demonstrations being given
by fhe do?toH and nurses, are proving very interesting and instructive.Mr. McDonald and family have
taken up residence in the McFarlanehome, the fooher occupants, Mi1, andMrs. HometWudge are moving to
their home in London.
Mrs. (Dr.) Coll and Mrs. Gladys
Steele of Detroit, Mich., called onfriends and relatives here on Mon
day.The wolves which are still at large
east of the village are causing farmers in that district much anxiety as
they are becoming so bold to be seen
prowling around the barns in searchof something to eat and it is neces
sary to keep all fowl and small animals locked up lest they fall a prey
of the prowlers.During the bright days of late,threshing is progressing rapidly try
ing to get as much done as possiblebefore rain falls again. Silo filling is
also in full swing and if weather
continues favorable, this week willsee a large number of the corn fields
cleared. /
