The Desert Sun turns 90

We do love our newspapers.  I enjoyed reading about the early days.

"The office at 363 North Palm Canyon Drive was one of the most convenient for the reporters - we only had two by then - as it was right next door to the old city hall and only two doors from the fire station and the police department with the Chamber of Commerce across the street.

All a reporter, with his typewriter by a window,  had to do, if unsure of the facts of a city hall story, was to yell out that window to the city clerk's office few feet away, and ask his questions."
