62 THE HIGH SCHOOL MAGAZINE MAKING OUR MAGAZINE T THE end of the year, when we proudly distribute the Magazine, we may remark that it meant a good deal of work to collect the material, but after we have given our material to the publisher, it passes through a long process before it is distributed as a magazine. First there are the pictures--photographs and sketches. By an ingenious chemical process, an acid-proof film, corresponding to the original picture, is deposited on a lead plate. This plate is then sprayed with acid, which eats into the bare portions and leaves the black lines in relief. The plate is then copper-plated for durability, and tacked to a wooden block. This is the Haut which eventually prints on the paper. ' V L- '11 . ', N 3, W il ' . .53 . ., W ,N ,. a 4 ff - .

The linotypc machine makes a line of type at once, that is, it casts a stick of type metal with the raised letters on one edge. These sticks are placed side by side to form a column. The keyboard of this machine has six rows of keys and fifteen in a row. In the monotype system, two machines are used. The operator, tapping on the keys of the recording machine, perforates a long roll of paper like a music-roll. The roll is taken off and fed into the apparatus for making the type. In it, the mechanism is played just likea player-piano, and molten type-metal is forced MONOTYPE CASTING MACHINE against little bronze moulds which make it into the required type, not in lines, but in individual monotype. The second stage is the composing room. Here the type and cuts are laid out on stone tables, and arranged in steel frames or chaises. Several pages fit in one frame, and the pages must be arranged so that when the paper is folded they will be in consecutive order. After the proofs of the type have been read, the frame is put in the printing press, which inks the type and presses the paper against it. The actual printing is now done, and all that remains is to make the large sheets into books. In the binding room, the paper is automatically folded and fastened by wire staples. An electric shearer cuts the edges, and the finished product is ready to be sold. R. A. KERR, VI-B. LET'S ALL DIE QUICK!
