A young man asked us the other day, "How do you go
about it to open a bank account?" Why, it's easy enough.
Just about the same way that yon would go about it to buy a
pound of butter. Walk right into the bank and tell them—
any of them—that you want to open an account. They will
say "alright," and fix you up a bank book with your name
on it and the amount of money you want to leave marked
down on it. This book is your receipt for the amount of
money yon left with them to keep for you. They will also
give you a check book. Now you see you don't havs to. go
back to the bank whenever you want your money or part of
it. Just write a check. If you want to pay Mr. Blank for
that pair of sqoes just write a check Jand see how quick he
will take it. Then there is another advantage than this—
blrt you just step into the bank tomorrow and let us explain
it all to you.

The inventor of the Universal is
Arthur G. Baker, a printer, who
worked at the printing trade with, the
editor of Tlie];'Observer in Jackson
more than twenty years ago. He was
running a small daily paper in Boulder, Colo..'when the first thought of
inventing a typesetting machine entered his mind. He says it ■ was the
necessity he found in his business
for the machine that impelled him to
start in to. develop one. This was
eleven years ago. In 1002 he built a
machine which was a failure, his
newspaper and printing office being
sacrificed to raise the funds to build
the machine. Then followed a year in
the mines twenty miles from a railroad and_foui'3 miles back from any
mining camp. For months at a time
he could not get through the deep
snow to tlie outside world. Here he
worked hy day and dreamed of the
machine by night. The next year
another machine appeared, but it also
was a failure. Six months following he worked at "his trade on the
Boulder News, when he came back to
Michigan. He secured work at Albion, and in 1906 produced another
crude machine during tlie evenings
and other spare moments. This machine would not doTreal typesetting,
but it clearly showed that the principles he was following were correct,
and resulted in the financing of a second machine along the same general
lines by Jackson parties. This machine failed in. some essential features
Another machine was started in Chicago in 1907 and finally completed in
Albion, Mich. This machine set and
distributed type successfully, butfhe
key action was too hard and to correct this difficulty a spring was added
to do the work while tlie key action
simply tripped tlie spring and brought
it into action.
This spring proved to be too complicated after about S3000 was spent
in building-and testing it. Then the
storage battery and magnet idea was
installed, and a lot of ten machines
started, the first of which was installed last week in The Observer office;
where it is setting type like a little
major. Although it has been but a week
it has become a necessity, a time saver and a money saver, and will prove
its worth in thousands of piinting
offices ^throughout the world as its
manufacturers proceed with their
work.
While'the unvarnished statements of
-the progress of .the invention may.
look tame, it was not without its ex-,
citing features. Over SASjOOO has been
expended in the production of the
Universal typesetting machine. Mr.
Baker usec£his own money as far as it
WQuld go on the failures,  after which
he was compelled to raise the cash for
experimental work among strangers
through .his own- efforts in addition
to inventing and developing the machine. At one time he found himself-
in Chicago without as. dollar and went
into a printing office" to work one
night to get money to pay his fare
back to his home in Albion. At another time he found himself penniless
and put in a week in August shoveling cement in a cement factory at Cement City. On"" numerous occasions
he has found himself heavily in debt
without assets of any kind and fought
his way through with the ferocity of a
wolf. He has worked night and day
for years, denied himself many of the
little luxuries and some of the necessities.
Even with his own hard labor and
sacrifices, the machine never could
have been developed except for the
persistence and self-sacrifice of the
friends he gathered J.0 liim. These
men worked side by side with him,
some of them hustling new capital,
others testing, developing and inventing, many of them sacrificing their
self interests, some of them undergoing hardship and privation. Always
these men had the picture of the complete successful machine, before them,
and now that it has become a reality
and present to do its duty and prove
its yalue, they are entitled to rest
with the inventor in the glory of having produced the greatest boon for
the weekly publisher since the invention of type.
