Developed recently by the Mer- genjhaler Linotype Company of New York, Corona has risen rapidly in popularity among the leading newspapers on the North American Continent. Prominent among the papers which now use this type face are the New York Times, The Toronto Star and Toronto Telegram. Corona’s.big feature is its read ability. No doubt you’ve already noticed how much easier it is to read than the old Times-Advo cate type. The big, clear letters of Corona were designed to show up well on a newspaper page. Wherever the type has been introduced, readers have praised its fresh, clean-cut appearance. The amazing thing about Corona is that although it looks bigger than older type faces, it actually is smaller. The design makes this apparent paradox possible. While it gives the highest pos sible readability, Corona actually saves space—it allows The Times-Advocate to print more words than the old face did in the same length of line. Coupled with the change- in type face, is The Times-Advo- cate’s switch to a narrower column width—another feature which increases readability. In printer’s language, 'The New T-A’s columns are 11 and one- half pica in width, half a pica shorter than they used to be. 3 5 c TELEPHONE 216 Successor to Colonial Inn and Monetta Menard's Volkswagen FOR ECONOMICAL TRANSPORTATION The car which has outsold all other imported models combined.
