A Book of Better Days for
the Man at the Desk
Here is a book-interesting as a novel instructive as a text book-
telling some of the simple error-proof time-work-and-worry-saving
methods used by many of the 70000 little as well as large-but always
successfulBurroughs users in this .countryand it is free to you.
H Every word here means a dollar-and-cent saving to the employer who pays money to have the figures of
Ms business handled by employes. '
It is a book of inside information information about the accounting short cuts "stunts" of successful
bookkeepers cashiers auditors sales managers treasurers and shippers in fact nearly-50 different suggestions
illustrated by forms tabulations and drawings.
Each suggestion has come to us from actual practice through the Clearing
House of Business Systems which this Company maintains at an expense of nearly
$100000 a year just to give business men an opportunity to realize what the adding
and listing machine can do for a business system.
Of courso it Is an advertisement.
It Is not a catalog.
It Is tho result of scholarly research ami bus-
iness experience.
Hut It Is a dlfferent-from-tho-usual advertise-
ment It gives you something for nothing be-
cause you can save time by using tho Ideas
without tho llurroughs but you can savo two to
five times as much time ami nil tho work and
worry by using a llurroughs.
If you'vo novor used a Htirroughs you'll think
this nn exaggeration.
If you have used ono you know this is a con-
servative and modest estimate of tho value of
tho machine.
Every Bookkeeper Yours too
Needs this Book.
There Is not a bookkeeper In this country thnt
could not ubo theso Ideas to tho betterment of
his work not ono that could not do his work
more quickly moro enBlly nioro accurately as
a result of applying soino of tho suggestions.
Thousands of llurroughs bookkeepers know
this admit it gladly and nro getting hotter pay
because they have gained tlino ami oppoitunlty
In which to do moro and better work for overy
word on every pago shows nn opportunity to da
moro and Iwtter work and that always means
better pay.
The now generation of bookkeepers are learn-
ing tho things described in this book.
It is a significant fact that over 200 of the
leading business schools colleges nnd universi-
ties have purchased llurroughs in tho past couple
of years; thnt they are teaching their students
how to apply tho machlno to accounting methods
shortening tho work. Increasing the accuracy.
Theso schools feel tho demand for clerks who
know how to get moro nnd better work dono In
n given length of time.
They nro mooting it.
Aro you?
At first soino bookkeepers prided themselves
on tho fact that "they could get nlong without a
llurroughs" of courso t'hoy could Just as all of
us can get along without tho typewriter tele-
phone steam cars clones and watcnes telegraph
any of tho hundreds of time work and worry sav-
ers of the I'Oth century but wo aro not foolish
enough to try.

UtHHovflt youngest son of tho
President wns eleven years of ago
todny and thu youngster was tho
recipient of iimny fine present
from his doting parents brothers
sister nnd school mates. The ob-
servance of tho nnnlvcrsftij will
culminate with birthday part to
which many of Master Quentln's
friends liaro been Invited.
As tho "baby" of tho White
llo'iso Hook Quentlu has had ever)
opportunity to become n spoiled
kid." hut his sturdy self-rel'anc
nnd fun-loving spirit hnv saved
him from such a fate. Ho Is very
inucli admired by nil his younger
assoctilHH lender In their
sports nnd pflstlmo. nnd Is vy
democratic in spirit making no dis-
tinction betweon the children of tho
rich nMd poor.
Stories about the "chip of Hie
old block" Quentlu Roosevelt nro
alwuys current here. He Is n live-
ly lad nnd keem the fnmily guess-
Inn. Tho othor day ho camo homo
from school with an old sack over
his shoulder nnd Insldo of It a
squirming uptalllng something that
he spilled out of tho sack In the
midst of the family circle. Mrs
Koosinolt Jumped nnd somewhat
peevishly nsked her younger hope-
ful to what kind of n. circus ho
was treating them while tho presi-
dent and Ethol laughed. Tho some-
thing wns a small black pig nbout
a foot long.
"Alnt he a beauty. Just?" yelleu
Quentlu. as ho danced about hln
prize. I lxmght him from un old
colored woman up near the school.
She's got moro."
When tho president flnUhed laugh-
ing nnd Mrs. Itoosovolt had siu
gested outdoors for his plgshlp tho
president entered Into negotiations
for tho hnby porker nnd finally
bought It for $1.50 which Qucntltv
thought n fair prico for his prlro.
"Hont sucking pig" was on tho bill
of faro for a Whlto Ifouso dinner
subsequently and tho pig census
wns depleted to that extent. Hut
Quentlu soon hntl nnother pig and
ho has It yet.
