over 1 800. 900 Cards written.

I'VE decided, therefore, to write
cards for all members, adopt the card
system of accounting, and make car
bon copies of all cards for transmits
sion TO clerks Of camp. Over 1,5OO, 900
record cards were thus written, the
originals being retained here. If these
cards were arranged in a single pile
they would reach 1920 feet in the air.
If laid side by side, 10 cards occupy
ing an average Of one inch, they would
extend over five city blocks. If laid
end to end. they would make a strip
of cardboard four inches wide and 142
miles long.
In the meantime n number of large
file cases had been purchased for this
office. and the originals of the cards
shipped to the clerks, similarly assort-
ed. were placed in these files. which
were inGeXed according to camp num-
bers.
THE instructions followed the mail
ing of the cards and have just about
been completed. The correspondence
relating thereto is dropping off. The
only duty that now remains is to
catch up on the work delayed through
the installation of the card system
here.
