Last night the yvoung reporter worker late into the eveninz, putting down in black and white the material results of what is commonly termed an inspiration. eatly folding his “copy” at the cnd of his labors he placed it on the editor's desk and started to leave the otfice. The door was locked. ltle had no key. How to leave became a problem. He was innocent and knew not the waxs of a mewspaper office. So took his troubles to the printers who were hard at work in the *“back office” making ready for the next day’s work. Now printers have keenly devels oped scnses of humor.

The printers furnished the ladder—they were ull ioo anxious to help. and a little before midnimht any pedestrian on Church street would have been greeted the strange si~iit of a hatted and coated young man descending to the waik by means of a ladder. The printers drew the ladder up—which left the young man wondering how the last man left The Ierald Office ever: night, when there remained no one to draw up the ladder after him and store it away in the *“back room.” O i Journali rising young the High he by not to by NEW BRITAIN GIRLS WIN.
