Presbyterian Church News
Rev. W. H. Hoffman. Pastor.
The rapid spread of infkreazja has
necessitated the cios'ng of schools
and. churches and all places of public
assembly as a wise precaution.
This epidemic has already resulted
in many fatal cases and our sympathies have been deeply touched, still
we have reason to rejoice,, that we
are living in an age when medical
science is so advanced, the laws of
hygiene so well unde.stcod and evrry
facility is being used to cope with
these dreaded diseases that ih. eaten
the health of the community.
The funeral services of Hol,1i, Clark
Barr were attended hy a large number of relatives and friends. A military guard accompanied the body to
the cemetery and paid the usual military honors by ithe sounding of taps.
The deaith of this youth, that gave
promise of a useful.life, has deeply
touehed the large circle of his friends
and heartfelt sympathy is exc. eased
for the afflicted family.
Owing to the fact that so many have
Heft our churches -and Sunday schools
at their country's caH, and the exodus in some places being so great as
to almost break up the S-abbath
school, a, call has gone forth fo make
November 3rd or 10th a challenge to
every one who has ever been a Sabbath school scholar and dropped ouit
of the ranks to go to some Sabbath
school and help fill up the depleted
numbers of 'those wlio have gone into
the_serviee of their country. This is
a worthy and commendable rearguard action.
Teddy is saying some real good
things these days. Among the latest,
he would establish after the w»r
night schools for the study of English
language and Amercianism, and that
a foreigner* who after nve years' residence in this country w,as not fully
Americanized should be sent back
whence he came from. Teddy says he
objects to the making of this country
a pollyglot boarding school. Think it
over and see if you don't agree with
this true American in his happy way
of saying things in a telling -manner.

How a Machine Does Our Bookkeeping
A short time ago we installed -a. remarkable machine in c-ur Accounting Department—a machine which adds andsubtraets,
tells the date, keeps our books and gets out
monthly statements. It does all this work
much faster than any bookkeeper csuld,
and has never been kncw.i to make a mistake.
The installation of this Burroughs Bookkeeping Machine means t'r&t our accounts
will be handled just as rapidly and accurately as those of the l,ar. est and most up-
To-da'e b^nks in the country.
Insures Accuracy
The faot that our figure work is done on
a Burroughs is a guarantee to our customers of absolute accuracy in the handling of
their accounts. The ma:*hi,ne -mtthod: of
ledger posting makes it impossible for a
mistake to get past unnot'ead. This accuracy insurance alone is i-nportant enough
to you and: to us to justify the u?e of the
machine method, but there are many other
advantages.
Better Service to You
The Burrour'ip will handle our figure
work in about half the time formerly needed. This gives us more time for other
things—time- to improve the service in
every department of the bank.
Come in and seo our machine bookkeeping system in operation. We shall be glad
tovshow you how the machine makes entries
in our books, how it automatically adds in
one column, sub'raats in another and so or,
and how it make.5 mistakes impossible.
You will be welcoi\ e any time.
We don% want ysu to -think of this I*auk
.Ur-st as a place to deposit your money,
although of course we are glad to have you
kucp as large aba! ince with us as possible.
It is cur* desire to render our patrons every
service and aCcommodlaltion that can be
reasonably expecU-1 of us.
Talk over your* business problems with
us. It is part of our work to study business and financial conditions,, and it may
be that we can sue ;est some ideas- that you
will find worth wl.i*le. Please feel free to
consult us at any t me.
