NEW CHANGE IN CASHING
WORK-CREDIT CHECKS
As one of the steps toward estab
lishment of a more orderly system
Mr.William Head, chief accountant,
of the accounting office announces
that in the future all work credit
checks will be available each
Thursday morning instead of the
second day after check-up.
The practise which has been fol*' •
lowed in the past, that of pre
paring a separate payroll each
day for work credits checked, has
been found to create too much con
fusion in office routine. It is
antisipated that no inconveniences
will be occasioned through th<;
new system of paying each Thurs
day.
NEW STOCK ORDERED
The last report from. tho general
office, states that there have
been rimruosta for 110 cows.
Those which arc approved are be
ing forwarded to Mr.Anderson who
is on his way to Seattle to pur
chase. All requests to receive
consideration must be in this
office by 5 o’clock November 14
as no further cows will be order
ed after that tine.

missioner in the absence of Mr,
Huntley, sentenced Mr.Oberg of
Wasilia to one year and $200. fine
for issuing checks without funds.
Mr.Oberg was served with c. warrant
at five o’clock and at seven was
in Anchorage, serving tine.
