- The order file is a guard-book in which should be filed all orders whether emanating from the Inspector-General or the Registrar of the district. All orders of this character should be pasted in as soon as received and should not be allowed to lie loosely about. The order file must be in two parts: (1) circulars and general orders of the Inspector-General, and (2) orders of a general or permanent character issued by the Registrar. Temporary or special orders will be put in the yearly bundles and be weeded according to the instructions. The correction slips are not to be placed in the order file book but in the Manual. A list should be prepared for each year and pasted into the order file containing a brief description of all orders so filed. This list should not be made up at the end of the year, but written up from time to time as orders are filed.
