fold FORMS for life itself is but continuous busi-
ness struggle, and barter and sale seems to have
become the chief end of man. 1t matters little
what pursuit or profession a young Dian may be
fitting himself for he can not shut his eyes to lhe
fact that there will be exchanges to make business
correspondence to conduct, and accounts to keep
which will necessitate some kind of a business
education on his part and the better he has pre-
pared himself in this respect the better he can
meet these requirements when they arise.

this branch of education for fifteen years and he

knowledge to his efforts and abilities.
Prof N. 1. Jones' teacher of penmanship in
this College, is widely known as perfect penmanL

favorable criticism. He is a master of that branch
of the profession known as stipple-work and num-

great distance to receive instructions from him
in this special department
In addition to the superior advantages offered
by this institution in teaching penmanship, stu

they should give them thorough business ed.

that they should give them common school cd
