This is the season Of the year when
every aspiring young man should be
preparing himself for life's responsible
ities-especially in advance should he
make the rational inquiry as to where
and how can I most judiciously and ef-
ficiently occupy my time! To answer
this inquiry intelligently it is absolute
" necessary to know Of the superior
advantages and facilities that have been
provided for the special training oi
young men and ladies in the St. Paul
Business College. 1t may not be known
by some Of our readers that this Col
lege belongs to an Association" whose
members meet annually for mutual con-
ference on the progress and develop
ment Of practical tus;ness education.
These meetings are composed Of
members from the leading commercial
centres Of the country, reaching from
Portland, Maine, Montreal and Toron-
to, Canada to San Francisco, Boston
and St. Paul to New Orleans.
1t may be true that these represep-
tatives bear the impress of their own
individuality, but possessing as they
do years experience since their last
meeting, and ever ready and willing to-
give each the benefit Of any advance
steps he may have taken, furnish the
members Of the Association with op-
portunity not possessed by any indc-
pendent institution in the country. The
important desideratum is that each
student gets the benefit Of all the in

thors Of great celebrity and rare talent.
