As part of its system of conserva
tion in the use of white paper* the
Gateway today reduces from six to
four page>. But. strange as it may
seem, the Gateway will have more
space for news with four pages than'
with six pages. One linotype machine
can only set so many cms a day and
when there is a great amount of type
when then* is a great abount of space
to be rilled daily, larger type is used.
Heretofore the Gateway has been set
ting twelve point type, two* column
measure, on a fourteen point slug.
The eight point matter has been set
on a twelve point slug. Perhaps this
is Greek to most people, but read the
Gateway through tonight, ami you
will occupy just as much time in read
ing everything as you did when you
read from six pages.
Conservation of print paper has
been demanded by the government.
Many people will say that their out
side papers are just as large as for
merly. True, but thr outside papers,
instead of issuing from four to ten
editions daily have cut down to three
and four anti many to two or one. Ai
New York newspapers cut down the
number of their eitions oxer a year
ago principally because paper is so
scarce and again because the price has
doubled and trebled and then bourn ee
up again.
The date way has many changes in
contemplation. The Weekly Post has
been growing to such an extent that
very probably this will hi* enlarged
and appear as i Sunday edition,
such a change a.> this is made, the
Weekly Post will contain all of the
important news of the week. especial
ly the local happenings, Alaska news
in full, social doings, extra telegraph,
news occuring after the afternoon
press has been filed and which ap
pears in the regular Sunday editions:
and various other features.
In the Spring it is the intention of
the Publishers to again enlarge the
dateway to six' or eight pages daily
as the government promises a reduc
paper ami secure the New
York Herald’s pictorial service, ami
several cartoons like “Bringing up
“.Mutt ami .leiT." For this additional \
service the Gateway will
purchase a large page casting box and [
a Miller saw and trimmer.
In the meantime, the Gateway will
tn four pages, unless extra advertis
ing offers, then additional pages will
be printed.

The women of Reward are certainly i
to be congratulated upon the excellent
showing they made in thirty days,
sewing for the Bed Cross. 1’he hun

Washington and without lurther in

properly Oked, the two boxes compri

wt men are surely doing their bit. here
and everywhere, doing their bit cheer
fully ami patriotically. But they must
continue and the Seward women will
continue their sewing or knitting until
this war is ovci.

By buying over the C., M. & St. P. Ry. you are as
sured the comfort that comes from riding behind an

ture of “Milwaukee” service.
