A Good BOOkkeeper.

A very important factor in every
business, whether large or small, is a
good bookkeeper. In this day and
time, when competition is keen and
sharp and profits close it takes fine
management and close attention to
detail to run business successfully.
Nothing is more important than the
keeping of the accounts. It's not only
satisfaction to the proprietor, but it
is boon to the customers to have
ones accounts correctly kept and every
item so entered that it is no trouble
to see at a glance just what is was,
the price. and who purchased it. This
is the kind of bookkeeper Morris Jolly
is and the kind of books he keeps for
the well-known firm of Jolly, Gard
ner & Go. of Irvington. His books
are neatly, accurate and well-kept and
show at glance just what the firm Is
doing and reflect great credit on Mr..
Jolly's ability as an accountant.
