the point on the paper which is to receive the

type hits. The carriage does not bob up and

Why?
Because the type is shifted—not the carriage.
The only movement of the carriage is back and
forth on its closely adjusted ball bearing runways—
and this does not take place while the print is being
made. There is no lifting of the carriage.
This is one reason why L C. Smith & Bros, type­
