Last Saturday evening the Orofino
boys and girls basket ball team met
the two Peck teams on the latter's
floor. The boys game was slow and
sluggish throughout, but at all times,
Orofino showed superior team work
and basket shooting then their oppon-
ents. Orofino took the lead early in
the game and at the end of the first
half the score was l6-6 in Orofno's
favor. The second half was all in
Orofino's favor; Peck only making
points. When the whistle blew time
in the second half the score was 25-lO
in favor of Orofino.
The girls game was closely con-
tested and at the end of the game the
score was 3-3. The game was fast at
times, and both teams played excel.
lent team work. According to the
basket ball rules five minutes more
should be played in case of a tie, but
the Peck girls refused to play off the
tie.

New System Combines Cash and
Credit Register.
What might be described as an auto
matte bOokkeeper is a new device
which combines the cash register,
credit register and adding machine
in compact form.
There is a series of compartments
set above the keyboard of the ma.
chine, each of which contains a credit
customers account. This part Of the
device is built on the unit system SO
that it can, be added to as the business
expands and new accounts are opened.
In "a credit transaction the clerk
must make a record of certain details
by operating the keys before the cred.
it compartment of a customer can be
unlocked. When the handle is pulled
forward, this compartment is automat-
ically locked, and a complete and per.
manent record is printed upon the de,
tail strip.
Provisions are made by this device
to record all credit, cash and supple
mentary transactions. 1t is said to
simplify and expedite the accounting
system of a retailer who does a credit
business. The machine contains five
totaling devices, steel type, ribbon
and detail strip to record all business.
Each clerk has a number or initial
corresponding to certain keys to iden
tify him in each of his transactions.
Customers credit accounts are also
indicated by certain numbered keys;
this key number also serves to estab.
lish their identity. At the end of the
