Indorse Them Right.

A mar who handles a large number
of checks daily complained yesterday
that about half the people who indorse
checks do not know how TO indorse
them properly. The name of the i'm
dorser should always be written on the
stub end. or left-hand end. Of the check.
Many after turning the check over TO
indorse II, turn IL the wrong way and
indorse IL on the outer. or rieht-hand
end. Then. in order that, when 1t is
placed with other checks. the indorse-
ment may come right for examination,
the check has to be turned upside
down. A little thing like his is not
likely TO cause much trouble to those
who seldom get hold of a check. but
to a person who has to handle thou
sands Of them, IL may well prove an
annoyance.
