,-To VaZZ whom t may concern Beit known that I, JOHN Winnaar,

a citizen of the United States,

Y 5911 Prytania Street, in the city 'ot Nen7 Orleans, State of Louisiana,

have invented p `,certain new and useful Almproveinents in Y io pitvappertains to make ad t v Y @The invention relates to collated Work. sheetsl andhas for itsobjectto provide aV Clare the following toloe t t exact description ofthe invention, suchasr in the art to which CollatedVork Sheets; and l do hereby` de?` a full, clear, and

will enable others skilled nd use the saine.

simple andeilleetive arrangement ofl a main :Work sheet, such as a `ledger sheet, and Va l ,secondary Worksheet, such as a statement, V,which latter isv made in the form oi acontinuous band extending around the Vmain,

Work sheet and engaging arslot in a trans` verse edge of the main. sheet to lock the g, sheets together. The sheets thus associated preferably having a sheet of Vcarbon paperY or other transfer medium interposed bef tween them, ivhich carbon sheet is Valso preferably in the form of a continuous band,

Y the .main sheet having a column oit figures along one edge correspondingto line spaces of. a typewriting machine A inxwhich the i col,

lated sheets areemployed, the front face of the supplementary sheethaving a similar.

column of Vfigures -alon'g one edge, and lthe rear portion of the band-like supplementary` sheet having a series of lines of perforations similarly spaced, to correspond with the line spacing or a typewriter, said perforated lines preferably being p rovided with tivo columns of gures in reverse order to. each other, the (1o-ordinated sheets providing a means .for a permanent record on both sides off the main sheet, and the supplementary sheet affording means for making a removable `record for a given periodv of time.V

which record may be included on both the front and, back sections ot the bandlike supplementary sheet. f V

The invention is illustrated Y companying drawings, in which,` Y

Fig.V l is a front velevation of the main and supplementary sheets `in assembled relation;

j Fig. 2 isa rear elevation ofthe saine;y

,residing at v lside edgeof the sheet l yitront and rear i''aces of 1922. Serial No. 568,192,

Fig. 3 is a sectional elevation of the Vassembled sheets.

Referring to the drawings, l represents Vthe main record sheet, which, for the purpose of illustration, is Vsheet which may be in an Aordinary ledger the forni of a card, or leaf such -as employed in a loosesleail book, said sheet being provided With the usual concomitante of a ledger record including a space for the heading, andthe usual column indicia such as Date, items, Debits, Credits desired, additional coland Balance, andii umnar spaces i'or additional data. @ne or i, both of the transverse edges of the sheet l is provided With` a slot or indentation, as represented by the numerals 2 and 3, of agvidth substantially equal to that of the supplementary sheet. Near one marginal there is provided a series of consecutively numbered spaces corresponding to the line spacing on the typeivriting machine With Which the assembled sheets are employed.

The supplementary sheet l0 is formed as acontinuous band or belt-like strip which extends longitudinally of and overlies the the main sheet-1', and engages fthe slot or slots .2, 3, in the main sheet, therebyl locking the two sheets together and preventing any lateral, or loiigitudinal movement or' the supplementary sheet with respect to the main sheet. front tace oi the supplementary sheet is provided with similar headings, spaces, columns and rulings as the portion ot the main 1 plementary sheet is provided with a series ot transverse linear perforationg 13, which include the entire rear sectionand the lines ot the folds 0r creases Where the supplementary sheet passes overhand around the hottoinsof the slots in the edges of the main sheet, and preferably these perforated lines The is disposed a column l2 of conare `provided with rows or columns of con-j secutive numbers, the numbers in the respective columns being in reverse order, and the lines being spaced t agree with the type" Vwriter line spacing.

`Nhen the main `and supplementary sheets have been' assembled as indicated,'the front Y and back Sections of the supplementary sheet closely overlie the adjacent faces of the main i Ameans for effectingthe transfer may be employed, such, for example, 4as proyiding the inner faces of the secondary sheet with Vto the primary sheet.

a transferring composition, butthe transfer' is preferably effected by interposing la carbon transfer sheet between the inain and supplementary sheets. desired, Vthe carbon sheet also be foriiiedias "a continuous band, in which 'event only one ysection of the carbon sheet corresponding in length to the main sheet will be coated with the transfer composition, in "order to prevent the lrecfordas printed by the typewriter `be` ing impressed on the bacl of the Vmain sheet. The advantage of forming and applying the carbon transfer sheet i as a continuous band istha't it may be accurately adjusted with the supplementary in properrelation to transfer the record i Obviously also', the transfer sheet may consist of a single :sheet VofV carbon papier andthe like, of the 'same length as "themain sheet, wliichm'ay be Vslipped in between the supplementary 'and 7 main sheets and removed after'one side of the record Ishi-iets have 'been printed, and

afterwards inserted between the rear section of the .supplementary Vsheet and theY back Vface ofthe main sheet.

The mode of assembling and using the collated sheets as above described will 'be apparent froml the foregoing description buta specific exempliiication ofthe use of Vthe invention in collatingledgcr sheets and statements, as lillustrated inY the drawing, will render the advantages ofthe invention perfectly clear. Assuming that the VVstatementis to 'represent transactions covering a 'montln and the ledgerfaccount has been started on a new sheet, the supplementary sheet is slipped over the main 'sheet by bending the latter slightly in a direction' from top to bottom, andthe numerfall of column 12 on the supplementary sheet brought into alignment with numeral 1 of column 5 of the main sheet.V lf a seliiaratet'ransfer sheet is employed, thesame is applied simultane-V ouslywith the supplementary sheet. The two sheets are maintained infthe assembled relation vindicated during the entire period covered by the statementV supplementary sheet, and the" successive items' areV Awritten sheet so yas to be always on the latter and simultaneously transferred l of lines on theV frontffacerof the ledger sheet, it is necessary onl'y'to "reversef the latter' 'and begin'tl'ie writing ,of theY itemson the next line'on the reverseside counting Vfrom the bottom of the main sheet, whichj will `maire the recordfon .thesecondary sheet` I continuous, and in properisuccessive order.

After-'the record for the complete period rep- Y' A `resented by the statement or supplementary sheet been finished, the supplementary to the -main sheet.' Should theV number i of items of transactions exceed the number'V sheetls removedby tearing along anyone Y Y ofthe perforated lines )onthe rearsection thereof, 'after which new supplementary sheet may Ybe substituted therefor. If'theY data tobe recorded on the 'supplementary sheet represents a; continuation of lthe jdata already recordedon the Amainsheet, as' forV example, when the main `shee't 'contains"a record of ttraIisactiOns coveringaffion'th, and

including tjhe'fi'rst ten lines represented by column 5, the new supplementa'rysheet Ywill Vbe so applied'to theV sheet the numeral ,l injcolumn ,'12 will come opposite numeral ll iiitcolum'i'i 5,and.thef data Arecord-V ed onfthe suppl eiifie'ntaryA sheetwill represent by the statement or supplementary sheet, .and

sheet. After the "record on the-supplementary sheet has beencomp'leted, and Ithe"latter disengaged from lthe' main sheet, lthe` extra length or unused-portionof the supplementary sheet may be'i'enioved by tearing the same at anyone of the'perforatedlines V13, as

will be understood.
