> The announcement, Feb. 11, of the 
BD eogagement of Eleanor Butler Al- 
_ exander, daughter of Mrs. Henry 
Addison Alexander of 42 West 44th 
 st., New York, and Theodore Roose- 
velt, jr., eldest son of ex-President 
Roosevelt, has much interest for the 
North Shore contingent, since young 
Roosevelt has been entertained on 
the North Shore during recent sea- 
sons, and met many of the young 
‘set. Miss Alexander is 21 years old 
and her acquaintance with her fi- 
ance dates from their early youth 
and she used to be entertained at 
Albany when the ex-President was 
Governor of New York and also in 
Washington when he was President. 
“She is a close friend of Mrs. Alice 
Longworth. Miss Alexander’s father 
is counsel for the American Embas- 
sy in Paris.

Henry C. Frick’ of the Pride’s col- 
ony is now at a winter resort near 
Augusta, Ga., and it is considered 
of much importance that he spoke 
there for publication, since he does 
‘so very seldom. Mr. Frick is re- 
‘ported as stating that no legislation 
ean be adoped or attempted in sin- 
cerity which would prove a perman- 
ent obstacle to the nominal opera- 
tion of sound economic law, nor 
should vast production from the soil 
and their marketing be restrained 
by legislation. He does not believe 
in demagogic political agitation, 
but in high business conscience.

We print above a picture of the 
new model 5 linotype machine re- 
cently installed at the Breeze office, 
the only machine of its kind on the 
North Shore, with the exception of 
the machines in the offices of the 
Gloucester Daily Times, at Glouces- 
ter, and the Beverly Times, at Bev- 
erly. The machine takes the place 
of the four girls usually employed 
to set the Breeze by hand. It is 
capable of doing the work of more 
than six compositors. Since its in- 
stallation on the first of February, 
it has not only set up the Breeze 
each week, but on it has set 
to the present date, over 300 pages 
of the Rockport and Manchester 
town reports. The metal is heated 
by gasoline and the slugs are made 
from the melted metal which, after 
being printed, are melted over and 
over again. The linotype machine 
is considered the acme of mechanical 
ingenuity— it is one of the machines 
which does everything but talk. 
The Breeze invites any one who 
is interested to come to the office 
any time between 8 and 5 o’clock to 
see it in operation. Incidentally, we 
might mention by way of a ‘‘puff’’ 
for ourselves, that we have just been 
able to secure the contract from a 
large publishing concern for setting 
the type for a 500-page history 
which will later be placed on sale 
all over the country. The machine 
gives us an opportunity and advan- 
tage of reaching out into larger 
fields than we were perviously able 
to reach. 
The machine is identically the 
same as those used by the big news- 
papers in Boston and _ elsewhere.-
