F. Harring- ton, of the Medill School of Journal- ism, of Northwestern university. Many gifts have already been re- ceived, chiefly portraits of living news- paper men. They have been hung in the corridors of Wieboldt hall, on Mec- Kinlock campus, the Chicago division of the school, but Director Harrington is planning for permanent quarters for the museum in the headquarters of the school at Evanston. "Almost every newspaper office in the country has some early historic newspapers, a 'stick' that was used by President Harding, or a hand press on which some notable got his start," says Director Harrington. "Many of these treasures have already been lost. We are establishing a repository where newspaper men of the nation can leave these records of a passing age and know that they will be preserved for posterity. "Right now we are looking for an old Washington press, one that has played an important role either in the developmerit of journalism, or in our national history. We would be de- lighted to get even a model of an old colonial hand press. When we have our new quarters we shall have room for an early linotype or a stone that has become a link in the long chain of journalistic evolution."
