Bryant & stratton Business College.


Tie question OF educating our sons and
daughters Is one OF vita! Importance to
oil parents who desire that their children
should be- useful as well as
mem beers OF society. Having conceded
the above the next question is: What
school is the best? To answer the above
question b. any sensible, intelligent person
living in Provideuce or vicinity, there is
but one answer and that Is the Bryant ~
ktratton Business College. For 80 years
this popular and merilorious commercial
college has been conducted with the most
gratifying success. Its graduates are to be
found filling important and Responsible
positions in ell the departments of COM
mercial activity. Such IS tho reputation
enjoyed by this college that q large percen-
tage OF the great industrial, financial ana
mercantile institutions OF Rhooo Island
consider themselves fortunate ia being IA
vored by securing a large number OF its
students. This Is not TO be wondered at
when we consider the thoroughness OF
the methods adopted in their teaching.
As an illustration, we will take the bank
ing department. Here we find a COM
pletely organized bank, with every officer
necessary to successfully carry on a bank
ing business. Checks, notes and drafts
are issued, deposits made, etc. accomplish
ing In detail exactly the same as every
large banking house does in the transac-
-flon OF their -husi less, even going as far
Is TO establish a clearing house. In orde-
that students may fainiliarize them selves
with the stock ana market quotations, q
stock exchange has been esta blisbed where
correct quotations direct ron the Boston
market are furnished daily, stuuents be-
Ing compelled to buy and sell all kinds OF
stocks, bonds and merchandise at prices
quoted on the exchange. These prices and
quotations are entered on the books by the
students and a balance sheet struck off ar
tina SlnGp nf nonh daU Hhn anpt, ~ arnfat do
partment includes the manufacturer,
wholesale, commission ana retail dealers.
NO one who has not visited this college
can conceive the accuracy of the system
carried on in the instruction OF students.
Nothing is more observable than the adj
vance made by each student from month
to month or even day by day. In the
amanuensis department beautiful speci-
mems OF students work may be seen on
every hand, more care being taken jn the
work done than In the most strict BUSH
ness houses. No letter is considered per-
feet until II has received the approval OF
the instructor. In order TO coach back
ward students particular care and atten-
tion Is devoted TO each individually. The
college quarters are especially arranged
n adapted for the purposes for which
they were intended and comprise the en-
tire fourth floor with parts OF the third
and filth floors OF the Hoppiu Homestead
building. Mr.. 4. b. Stowe,l, the owner and
principal, Is an educator OF high standing
and influence, OF years OF experience, IS
thorough INT practical in all his methods,
ana pupils who attend mis- college can co,i-
graduate themselves upon the fact that no
better commercial college can be found In
the United States In which to secure a
sound, practical and thorough education.
The faculty Ia composed OF ii educators OF
recognized ability. who are thoroughly
competent instructors in their several
branches.
