      <marmot:placeNotes>The first location of The Daily Sentinel newspaper, before it outgrew its headquarters and moved operations to  734 S. Seventh Street, was at 634 Main Street. The building served as the home of the Sentinel's operations and also as a community center of sorts on special occasions. During the World Series, people gathered at the Sentinel building to watch as a Sentinel employee marked changes in the score on a large scoreboard. During local and national elections, people gathered in the lobby of the Sentinel building after 7 pm to monitor returns, forming a large crowd by 10 pm. During election nights, Walter Walker usually emerged from his office and came out to talk to the local people, bringing certain prominent citizens back to his office for further discussion.&#xD;

According to Leta Atchison, who worked in the building, the Sentinel's advertising department, proofreaders, linotype room, newsroom, bookeeping department, circulation department, and telephone switchboard were all located on the main floor. The printing department was located in the basement, and when the presses ran, the whole building shook.</marmot:placeNotes>
