Our Birthday and a New Dress Today the CAPE MAY COUNTY TIMES launches iorth on its forty-third year. This issue it Number I, Volume 43. And to celebrate our birthday, vre have given th- TIMES a new ■‘dress.” The word “dress” in newspaper parlance means dressing the newspaper in a new type. You will notice this change, and perhaps your TIMES may seem a bit strange until you get uted to the heavier headlines, and the difference in typographical style. When you do, we are certain that you will like it better than before, for we have searched and experimented for many months in trying to find the ideal head-line type, from point of readability and proper balance. Strength was sought after, yet sensational boldness was to be avoided. The combination was finally found that seemed to fit into the conservative policy of the TIMES, and the type now used, cut by that famous type master. William Caslon, is ideal from every viewpoint. It is readable, it contrasts the headings from the news, it is conservative and inviting to read. When one of the female of the species approaches the male and mentions “dress” there is usually wailing and gnashing of teeth. “Dress” always means money, usually a sizable amount of money. When the staff of a newspaper agrees that it is advisable to change the “dress" of a publication, the publishers also realize that this means money—often an investment of thousands of dollars. The new "dress" for the TIMES was contemplated for some time, and it is fitting that it appears clothed with its new type on its birthday—a birthday gift to our thousands of -eaders. Few businesses survive forty-'uree years. The TIMES has not only survived these many years but has attained leadership in Cape May County and ranks as one of th* largest and best edited community newspapers in America. Four times in three years it has been awarded first prizes in newspaper contests, in competition with hundreds of other newspapers, for its all around excellence as a newspaper. In a business way. it carries more advertising, at a higher rate, than any other weekly newspaper in South Jersey, because you, our readers, believe in your TIMES, and read it and respond to its advertising appeal. Wc present to our readers today the TIMES—forty-three years youn,"—with every confidence that the years to come will see even greater growth and progress. THE PUBLISHERS.
