AN AUTOMATIC
| BOOKKEEPER
The Peoples Bank Installs New
Burroughs Adding -Subtracting
Machine to Keep Books

4 real mechanical marvel is
the new bookkeeping machine
that has just been installed at
the Peoples Bank. The machine
is the Burroughs Adding-Sub-
tracing model and will greatly
simplify the work of keeping the
banks books.
One should see this Burroughs
in operation to fully appreciate
what a wonderful thing it is. 1t
automatically prints dates, sub
tracts checks, adds deposits and
computes new balances, all in
one movement of the carriage
across the page, and with a
speed that seems incredidible.
that is to say, the machine not
only posts figures to the ledger
page, but computes balances au-
tolnatically as the posting is
done.
Error-proof "Steel Brains
And this automatic bookkeep-
er can't make mistake. His
Steel brains" are mathemati-
IcalIy error-proof. Depressing the
keys puts figures "into" the Bur
roughs. Touching a bar adds or
subtracts the figures and prints
them in even rows. And no mat
ter how fast or how long you
feed figures into it, the machine
never gets tired, never let's err
rofs creep in through brain
Il has just as lively an ap-
lpetite for large numbers as for
small. As a depositor you might
deposit $10,0O0,00O tomorrow,
but the machine would not have
to exert itself to enter the a
mount, add your old balance, sub
tract your checks and automati-
cally compute the correct new
balance of your account. The on
ly time it balks is when you have
an overdraft. Then it warns the
operator, by the simple expedi-
lent of refusing to figure any
more without the subtract" le-
yer is held down, that your ac-
count is overdrawn, and there
upon proceeds to print red 'OD'
signal opposite the amount you
need to get square with the bank
Heretofore, in posting to the
ledger it was necessary for a list
of checks and deposits to be en-
tered by hand in order for the
bank to properly debit and cred
lit each customers account. The
bookkeepers had to add each list
of checks mentally, also had to
add all deposits and combine
/ their total with the customers
old balance. When that was done
the total of all the checks had
to be deducted from the sum Of
old balance and deposits to de-
termine the new balance. With
the machine all this is accCI1-
|plished automatically and M';h-
out any mental calculation t.
ever. The operator has only to
depress the proper keys and
touch the operating bar.
Burroughs-posted ledgers
have many advantages that e.
ven a person who is not familiar
with bookkeeping will recognize
| AS explained, all figuring is
L..
handled mechanically, the oper.
ator being obliged only to watch
the amounts he is entering.
Then, in addition to the speed
and economy such method at
fords, there is the infallible ac.
curacy accruing to the use Of the
machine. The precision with
which the internal mechanism
operates insures an exaetitudt
heretofore unknown in figure
work.

Walter Harvey Hill has taken an
option on the Ferry group, near Bel

ment work in few days. This is on
the same shear zone system as the Iron
Dyke, with good surface, showing.
The most important deal ever made
in this camp was completed this week
when w. b. McDougall gave an OPP
ton on 10 patented claims to w. s.
Kuehn, of San Fracisco, for $125,000.
These claims lie five miles down the

have remarkable surface showings of
glace and native copper ores. There
are several tunnels headed toward the
shear zones, but none 6f them have been
crosscut.
The new owner has arranged for 100
horsepower from tn electric company,
ordered a core drill and compressor,

A call for help has come from the
battle front in France on behalf Of
American soldiers, the soldiers of their
allies, and of the destitute civilians of
devastated Belgium and northern
France. Six million warm knitted wool
EN- articles are needed to help them get
through the winter. The appeal has
come to the American Red Cross at
Washington, and it specifies $500, 900
each of sweaters, mufflers, wristlets and
socks.
The call is official Major Grayson, NJ.
p. Murphy of General Pershings staff,
the Red Cross Commissioner for Europe,
who knows better perhaps than any
other man just how badly these things
are needed, has cabled for them. Here
is part of his message:
Last winter broke the record for
cold and misery among the people here.
We inexpressibly dread the coming win
ter finding us without supplies to meet
the situation. We urge you on behalf
of our soldiers and those of our allies,
who will suffer in their frozen trenches,
and also thousands of French and Bel
gian refugees, to begin shipping at once
100000 each of the warm, knitted, wool
en- articles named. They must come be
fore cold weather.
The entire people of the land are call
ed upon to render this service to the
men in khaki, and those struggling with
them.
Every reader of this article is urged
to get supply of yarn and needles and
knit-7or have some one else knit-as
many of these articles as possible and
as quickly as possible. Those desiring
to help in this way may advise with
