          For some reason your images posted mirror-imaged; had to "flip" the images to read them.


          The book is some sort of financial/accounting/bookkeeping record showing monetary amounts by date. Example:
          八日 Eighth ....
          九日 Ninth; etc.

          一 金五円四
          Hitotsu: Kane Go En Yon ? Naru
          item: Money 5 yen 4 [sen?] sum.
          [the next-to-last kanji I can't make out; it looks like , non-standard kanji for (to come/arrive) ... but perhaps it is an abbreviation for /cents?????]

          The number is used to mean "item" when preceding sentences and is pronounced in the old-Japanese manner: "Hitotsu" [sometimes accented as "shi-totsu"].

          Other terms found in the register:
          発行
          Issue

          引出
          Withdrawal

          中代
          Medium term
          ==============

          The wood piece is dated Shōwa 8 year 3rd month: March 1933
          昭和八年参月

          Shōwa 8 year, 3 month
