Annouacement:
EXPANDING business has
compelled the local soliciting
office of the Comptometer to
seek larger quarters, and it has
therefore been removed to a
ground-floor location at 101 9
Chestnut Street.
The additional space has enabled
us to enlarge our Comptometer
School and thereby meet the con
stantly growing demand for
trained operators.
If you are not a Comptometer
user if you do not know from
experience what Comptometer
Efficiency and our Personal
Service mean you have only to
write or telephone Walnut 896
We are ready, upon iavitation,
to show you. Ask us.
