That is to say, the machine not only posts figured to the ledger page, but computes balances automat ically as the -posting is done. Error-proof "Steel Brains" And this automatic bookkeep er can't make a mistake. His "stesl brains" are mathematic ally error-proof. Depressing the keys puts figures "into" the Burroughs. Touching a bar adds or subtracts the figures and prints then in even rows. And no matter how fast or how long you feed figures into it, the ma chine never gets tired, never lets 'Trors creep im throu !h "brain fag." It has just as lively an appetite for the large nlumbers as for small.
