ries of Statistical Data

Toronto, Ont, Aug l3.--"Our com
lex and awkward calendar, with
months of unequal strength made
,lsp Of weeks plus /, 2, or B days APP
gortioned according to the whim of
IN old Roman emperor, absolutely
prohibits orderly and rational sum-
ularies of statistical data in suit
bic units Of conveniently increasing
lime" SO said Charles F. Marvin,
"hief of the United States weather
bureau at Washington, in his paper
20 the physics section of the Brit
lsh Association for the Advance
nent of Science today. Pointing
nut that great masses of statistical
'tata covering the fields of meteor
nlogy, yields and prices of crops,
business and economic conditions,
re piling up each year but under
The handicap of a fantastic calendar,
i'rof. Marvin urged that meteorolo-
fists take the lead in the movement
Ser rational division of the year
jnto weeks and quarters.
''To be fully useful to students
or analysis, these data need to be
appropriately assembled in suitable
units of time and sectional area, or
representative groups" Prof. Mar
I'M explained. Thus he would advo-
cate in addition to simplification Of
he calendar, the arbitrary division
Of the areas Of the continents more
convenient than the present haphaz-
ard grouping into countries, prOvin-
ces or states.
: Let us promote the adoption of
The simple equalmonth calendar
many others are now advocating,
md thus make it easy for all future
lime at least, to summarize data in
units of weeks, fortnights, 4-week
months, 13-week quarters, and years
Of just 81 weeks" Prof. Marvin
nrged.
While admitting that the full ben
fit of such change would not be
felt for many years in the future,
the speaker thought that meteorolo-
gists in particular might save them
selves a great deal of time by re-
grouping all the more important
records which are now filed away
under the cumbersome system.
Leap year would just naturally fit
in under this scientists scheme. ut
is an easy matter to absorb the un-
avoidable extra day in common years
and the two such extra days in leap
wears" the speaker declared.

P. 0. CLERK HAS
A PERFECT
RECORD
Works Electric Machine in N.
Y. Office Six Months
Without a Slip.
BY WILLIAM PICKETT HELM.

Money orders paid at the New
York postoffice have shot UP to
10000 a day and thirty young
women are now employed solely to
add the totals paid out and perform
other clerical work incidental to
the task. The adding Is done by
electricity on a batch of almost
human machines through whose
use the Federal. Gov sment IS
saving thousands Of dollars each
month.
Recently, the New York postof-
flee took over the work of adding
the totals of money orders cashed
daily at the Buffalo postoffice,
thereby saving about $4,000 a year.
At the present time, New York
totals alsn the money na d out on
money orders at the Brooklyn and
Garden City, N. Y, postoffices.
Nearly 5000 100000 a year in money
orders is added and cleared through
the machines operated by the young
women at the New York postoffice.
In the accompanying photograph
one Of the fastest and most &C.
curate operators is shown at an
electrical machine which sorts the
money orders and punches cards
for tabulation on other machines.
Albert Firmin, superintendent Of
the division Of money orders. says
that one Of the young women has
become so expert that she worked
for six months at such a machine
without making a single error
Had she been only 80 per cent ef.
ficient in her work--a mark sci.

made, it is estimated, at least 500
errors a month.
