October 2, 1959 THE SALEMITE Page Three Treasurer Cites Changes In Accounting Procedure By Grace Walker Ralph F. Hill, new school trea surer who replaced Miss Anna K. 'Perryman last spring, was sitting behind his impressive-looking desk as 1 walked in his office, dripping P;wet from the current monsoon. With paper and pencil in hand I sat down in the nearest chair and ■%egan popping questions about the 'changes which had occurred in the treasurer’s office. He scratched his thinning hair, looked thoughtfully at the ceiling through his gold- rimmed glasses, and chuckled. It seems that the handling of per sonal drawing accounts has been altered somewhat. Now when any student makes a deposit she is given a receipt and must keep her own record of deposits. Formerly, a record of this type was kept for the person by offfice staff. Also, all treasurers of clubs, classes, etc., must personally deposit or with draw from their accounts. Bills sent directly to the treasur er’s office will not be charged by office employees to a particular club. The bill will be sent to each representative club treasurer and she must in turn deposit it. These changes simply facilitate the con trolling of money which is en trusted to the treasurer’s office, ac cording to Mr. Hill. The greatest improvement, I learned, is that accounting machi nery has been installed. No longer will bookkeeping have to be done by hand. While we were on subject, Mr. Hill mentioned were which date back to the early 1800’s. He obligingly opened the safe, and we began glancing through one of the large, musty-smelling books. As we flipped through the pages, yellow with age, Mr. Hill pointed out many balance sheets, records, etc., which were written in Ger man. He answered my unasked question by explaining that (at the time) when the Moravian Church was under the jurisdiction of the ‘Mother’ church in Germany, keep ing the records in German simpli fied things when an annual report was sent to the old country. As we got near the end of the book, however, I was interested in seeing that English was beginning to creep in the records. I noticed that in 1881 it cost the school $8,600 for boarding students. After a few calculations, Mr. Hill said that it costs perhaps twenty times that amount today. Feeling that I was taking up too much of his time, I folded my paper, put my pen back in my soggy rain coat pocket, and got up to leave. But Mr. Hill had another interest ing story for me. It seems that in 1929 a girl found a watch in her bed. She turned it in to the Treasurer’s Office, and it is there to this day. The bell rang for class, so I had to go, but one of these days I’m going back to see Mr. Hill and ask him if that watch is a man’s .there records in the this that safe Calendar 6 30 I -11 u Ulo Kano- UD their beanies as a fond memory of Rat Week, Freshmen of ‘shelb7, Ann^ Miller of Norton, Va.. and Peggy Legette of Winston-Salem consult a Junior Big Sister, Jean Mauldin of Charlotte.
