As for the lithographers, sign-painters, and beginners, they were spending their evenings somewhere else than in the old room under the shaded gas-jets. Even Margaret, so Mother Mulligan told him, was up "wid her folks, somewheres." "And she was that broken-hearted," she added, "whin they shut up the school bad cess to 'em! Oh, ye would a-nigh kilt yerself wid grief to a-seen her, poor darlint."
"Turn out every man in town!" he called, dashing into the car. "Teddy, run to the main street and send everyone of our banner men and lithographers to the Ward Building. You and Henry carry over there at once all the banners you can scrape together. Do not lose a minute. But wait! I'll telephone the liveryman for a wagon to carry the paper, brushes and paste pots over.
Horn" a word of praise which, as he wrote to Crocker, steadied his uncertain fingers "as nothing else had ever done." The students in his school were from all stations in life: young and old; all of them poor, and most of them struggling along in kindred professions and occupations engravers, house-painters, lithographers, and wood-carvers. Two or three were sign- painters.
"Now tell me, if you will, what the routine of the work on an advance car is," said Phil after he and Billy had sat down beside the tracks. "It would take all night to do that, but I'll give you a few pointers and the rest you will have to pick up for yourself. In the first place an advertising car includes billposters, lithographers, banner men and at least one programmer."
Another pioneer plant was that equipped and started in January, 1881, for Hinds & Ketcham, a New York firm of lithographers and color printers, who had previously been able to work only by day, owing to difficulties in color-printing by artificial light. A year later they said: "It is the best substitute for daylight we have ever known, and almost as cheap." Mr.
In addition to this, a large class of workers, male and female, are employed in Glasgow in the preparation and in the finishing of the goods as designers, lithographers, weavers, clerks, darners, ironers, and patterners. These are all well paid some very highly; and the young women composing the three latter classes are a remarkably well-to-do, prosperous class.
Nevertheless, this legend has not been undertaken to furnish materials for future biographies of Don Juan; it is intended to prove to honest folk that Belvidero did not die in a duel with stone, as some lithographers would have us believe. When Don Juan Belvidero reached the age of sixty he settled in Spain, and there in his old age he married a young and charming Andalusian wife.
For the lithographers he designed all manner of holocausts; at times he made tours through the counties and fixed the incandescent mouth of Vulcan's forge, the figures within being merely indicated, on the face of a hundred ledges. That was a shame, he freely admitted to me; the rocks looked better without.
Fully an hour passed, and one of the lithographers from the rival car went aboard with the information that they were unable to get a piece of paper in any window in town thus far. "Why not?" demanded Tripp. "They say their windows are already contracted for," was the answer. "Contracted for?" "Yes." "By whom?" "I don't know. That's all the information we can get."
Phil interpreted this to mean that his own men had secured the requisite permission to place their own bills there. He smiled as he thought of the little trick. It was an idea of his own to square locations ahead of the lithographers. Ordinarily, the lithographer made his rounds with a bundle of bills on his arm. Entering a store he would say, "May I place this bill in your window?"
