HOW TO ENDORSE

A great many people are
perplexed by the cashiers
c0urte eous Endorse it
please" when they present
a check made payable to
their order. They have a
vague idea what an endorse
ment Is, but when thus
bluntly asked to endorse"
they are perplexed. For
the benefit Of those unaccus-
toned to the term, we ex-
plain. The endorsement on
the check is merely your re-
ceipt for the amount named
in the check. TO endorse a
check simply sign your name
on the back of 1t as 1t is
written on the face, or II
someone has endorsed 1t be-
fore you sign your name af-
ter him as you usually sign
it. If you take a check made
payable to some other per-
son be sure to have him en-
dorse 1t. Now you see why
the banker requires you to
endorse a check. He wants
you to acknowledge in writ
ing that you received the
amount Of money named In
that check.
