Counting up our errors, One, two, three, four, five Means we've got to get to work, And Practice, even strive. Take the right position, Order helps, you see, Makes our work seem easier; With every muscle free. Then begins our adding, Everyone with the clock, Right that wrong!—the only way! Strike the red key-lock.

THE Chicago Comptometer School held their annual Christmas party on the afternoon and evening of Wednesday, December 22nd, at 29 So. La Salle St. In the afternoon from 2:30 to 5:00 the day school girls, numbering fifty-two, were at home to the office staff and sales force. The committees selected by the girls had charge of the decorating, entertainment and refreshments, and everything from the "grab bag" to "eats" was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. Mr. Lawrence responded cleverly to his introduction and the whole force entered into the spirit of the party with enthusiasm.
