. The Street railway journal . es * 460 STREET RAILWAY JOURNAL. [Vol. XXII. No. 10. a convenient and safe file for the way bills, to which the agent canrefer at any time. The warehouse book, being condensed, is ofgreat benefit in checking up the months work, and agents arealways anxious to keep it, because it saves time in the end, beinga check on abstracting, as will be explained later. But in the caseof small stations, the checking can be done on way bills in thescrap book. At large stations it is best for agents to keep afreight forwarded book similar to the warehouse book, and ab-stract in this book from the tissue copy book of forwarded waybills all consignments on which freight has been billed prepaid, orwith advance charges—but for the smaller stations this is notnecessary. The next record, the cash book, Exhibit No. 4, is the mostimportant of all; and when this book has not been properly keptthe traveling auditor is up against it. We, therefore, insist thatthis book be written up and balanced daily. 5S s;. s j i I «! 6 1 , f si* t*2 I» hi ?! -• i- : S3 f is I S5 OO X cnv. a a < a s
