Erlandson & Johnson, ever
alert to keep abreast of the
times, have recently installed
large accounting system that is
"dassy.' AS each clerk sells
credit order, they put the var
ious articles and amounts down
in their books as usual. After
the sale is completed they go to
the cases where the name of each
customer appears, and after the
name appears the number of the
holder, where the customers
slips are kept. By referring to
the last slip the total is taken
and added to the proper
place at the head of ,he column
which is then added with the
rest of the figures. If there is a
credit it is written upon the
slips. The customer is given a
duplicate and the originals plac-
ed in the file Thus a complete
record is kept of each and every
credit transaction, the keeping of
a set Of books is done away with.
This system shows accounts post
ed to date. Mr.. Blomluist, the
bookkeeper,is able to check up all
accounts within ten minutes each
evening, where heretofore under
the old system it took the larger
part of his time to handle .his
work. The customer knows all
the time just how his account
stands, thus it not only saves
time but disputs as we'll.

A number of improvements to
business property ON Chestnut
street are In prospect for the COM
ing season, while many new homes
are In contemplation and already
under way.
Among improvements to busi-
ness property is an addition to the
Fay Opera, extending the building
back to the alley, making it l20 feet
deep. This would give needed ad
ditional room to the opera and
would provide a neat business
place on Central for some industry
not demanding a main street loca.

additions of a second story to the

ment of the floor space.
I'D. Finch, owner of the fine lot at

property the coming season, either
for his own occupancy or for rental
purposes, it being understood that
he has received a flattering offer
for building on this corner, one
of the best corners in the city.
1t is also said that the local lodge
of Elks, who have purchased two
fine lots on Central adjoining the
Orpheum Theatre Block, plan for
the improvement of same by the
erection of a magnificent lodge hall
thereon.
The Fitger Brewing Co., owners
of seventy-tive feet frontage on
Chestnut at the corner of Cleveland
avenue, are also said to have plans
for the improvement of same, and
when built it is safe to cay that the
building, of whatever nature, will
