WANTED Book-hepers, Clerks, and
Actiue Men for Business. to the
| changes caused by the war, there exists
throughout the country most wonderful
demand for competent and skilliul book
keepers, clerks, &c. So great is this
demand that Notwithstanding the number
OF students at the Iron City College,
Pittsburg, Pa, has been more than
doubled during the past year, it has not
been able to supply the calls made upon
it for book keepers and clerks. Young
men contemplating preparation for bus
iness, which this year promises to be more
active than usual, should avail themselves
at once of the advantages afforded by this
popular institution, and prepare them
selves for fall and winter business.
