terest.

come to recognize the fact that business ed
ucation is approximately necessity, if you
are TO gain foot5eld in the business world,
or attain the highest success in it.
Doubtless, also, many Of you are DOW
casting about for school to attend this Fall; 1;
aud to these we would offer bindly word of
advice TO prepare to enter none until you

Macon, Ga. What tits doing for the boys
and girls Of rhe country is really astounding
Already during the present year it has given
fully one hundred Of them absolutely free
scholarships, has aideo more than hundred
others, and through i,s Employment Bureau
has placed all its eraduatesnot having one
idle The pay students receive discount of
their R. r fare, and low hoard makes the ex-
peose of pupil who atteods, less than it
would be if he remained idle at bone.
Having sccomplished what it has during
all the dol, hard times, the prosperous con-
dirions which are BOW returning everywhere,
wilt enable it 4, do far more in future
Young men, young women, if you are
ambi,ious. take our advice and write the
