j'ii i \ THE PHONOGRAM THE PRINTER An Easy One in plain words for the Children. See the man. What is he ma- king ? Is he try-ing to do the fif-teen nuz-zle ? See the Pho-no-graph. puz-zle ? See the Pho-no-graph. Is it play-ing live-ly mu-sic? Is he a ba-ker, ma-king pie with the roll- ing pin or wind-buns with Pho-no- oraph airs? No. Lis-ten lit-tle graph ones. He is a Print-er; a stamp- i-er-wise. a Como. His stack-er, oth-er-wise, a Comp. name is Slug 6. date print-ingr c This is an up-to- fice. Why ? Be- date print-ing of-fice. Why ?

But there are ver-y few blind Comps in the bus-i-ness, lit-er-al-ly speak-ing; al-though, met- a-phor-i-cal-ly, there are man-y man-y Print-ers who have not got their eyes o-pen. The Comp is set-ting type.
