The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1889-06-27

We direct attention to The advertisement
umn. 1t will be seen from it that the
rates of tuition in the institution
have been greatly reduced and placed
at figures which will preclude no one
who is willing to give fair equivalent
or valuable instruction. This college has
become an absolute necessity to the young
men of the country and ought to be liber
ally patronized by parents and those who
have control of the young men who are to
take their places in the business world,
The graduates from this college have no
difficulty in procuring good situations in
business houses. A diploma is almost a
sure passport, and when they go into bust
ness for themselves they have been unusu-
ally successful, as the methods they acquire
under Prof. DunsmOre and his competent
corps of assistants, give them advantages
which they could obtain no where else.
The college ought to be literally sus
tanned. 1t is an attraction to the city and
is an addition to its advantages which could
well be dispensed with.
We commend the school to the public,
and urge our people to take an interest i'll
its welfare by pressing its advantages upon
their friends who have boys to train in
business ways.
