tury, will help. It was first published Li a Sydney,
Australia newspaper in 1852.
1. On the recommendation of the Governor of this
Colony, this firm has reduced the hours of work,
and the clerical staff will now only have to be pres
ent between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.
on week days.
2. Clothing must be of a sober nature, The cler-
ical staff will not disport themselves in raiment oi
bright colors, nor will they wear hose, unless in
good repair.
3. Overshoes and top-coats may not be worn in the
office, but neck scarves and headwear may be worn
in inclement weather.
4. A stove is provided for the benefit of the cler
icalstaff. Coal and wood must be kept in the locker.
It is recommended that each member of the clerical
staff bring 4 lbs.of coal, each day, during the cold
weather.
5. No member of the clerical staff may leave the
room without permission from Mr. Rogers. The
calls of nature are permitted, and the clerical staff
may use the garden below the second gate. The area
must be kept in good order.
No talking is allowed during business hours.
The craving of tobacco, wines, or spirits is a
human weakness, and as such, is forbidden to all
members of the clerical staff.
8. Now that the hours of business have been dras
tically reduced, the partaking of food is allowed be
tween 11:30 a.m. and noon, but work will not, on
