Another special feature OF uur school and one
which In connection with the railway system
and man-llne Telegraph In actual operation,
places rs In the lead Of III other telegraph lnsti'
mtes, IS the fact that every student OF this
Institute Il expected ID take a thorough course In
housekeeping, business letter writing, CONNER
clhl law and penmnnshlp, This instruction IL
given free TO every student Of this institution,
ADD under the most competent instructor In the
western country, Mr, G. II shaituck. Thisis
not merely n surface knowledge, but thorough
comprehensive study Of these branches, ana II
something not given In any other telegraph
school In the world, In reality, the student
attending this institution is given the advantage
OF two professions for one tuition fee. This
thorough knowledge OF bookkeeping and PEN

within the past years, We have met with but I
failures, In one OF these cases, tho student was
past 40 years Of age and the other three were
ancted with the trouble commonly known as
"bon tired" We would however, not advise
any person TO take up the study who was under
10 or more than o. years of age.
PLACING GRADUATES,
Our manner OF placing graduates is to send
thcm to the superintendent who places them II

agent and uses them Us vacancies occur upon hi
line, A large number OF our graduates hay'
friends upon the different lines Of railway an,
telegraph, through whom they oRsily obtalI
positions after graduating lom our school
It's our purpose to so equally balance on
students with the places we have for them thu
EVERY student may be placed AS SOON Al

our list that pay a salary from the start.
