Wonderful indeed has been and is the
growth of the Hogarth Business coll
lege (rooms 2Os, 210 and 213, at AZ
Church street. First National bank
building), and yet not so wonderful in
view of the previous success of the in
stitution, which was phenomenal. Pro-
fessor ]. M. Lee started his present Ho-
garth Business college only about a
year ago, and from the start it was a
soaring success, and its prosperity al
ready equals, if not surpasses his for
nler school for iniparting knowledge.
Starting year ago with one large
room or hall its capacity was soon
tested, being soon filled to it's utmost
teeming with scholars eager to drink of
this fountain of knowledge. Soon par
ents became eager to place their chill
dren under Professor Lees tuition, and
Professor Lee added another large
room. This was speedily filled with
pupils, and still the demand grew and
yielding gracefully Professor Lee Sc
cured still another large room and this
is already alive with pupils, with room
for but few more, and another room
must be soon secured. When the Ho-
garth is in full blast it is sight worth
seeing, as a personal inspections re-
yealed, the professor and his capable
corps of teachers all busy and striving
to attain. The great secret of the sue
cess of the institution is the Socratic
method of teaching, which dominates
the whole system of teaching. Each
pupil is weighed in the balance and his
or her needs and capacities estimated
judged by individual aptitude and
knowledge is impaired by personal APP
plicatfon of instruction, measured and
guided according to the pupil. Thus
great Roadway is made. The scholars
feel that there is a direct interest In
them, the mode of instruction is sim
pie, plain, effective, and the good work
goes on There are no classes to scatter
effort and leave some to lag behind The
swift learners learn more swiftly by
the Socratic method, the slow learners
gain in their progress. Beside the or
+ binary every day branches of study,
mathematics, elocution, mechanical
drawing and bookkeeping are taught;
also English, German, French and Lat
In, and then there is the commercial
department. Shorthand and typewrit-
ing are important features of this de-
partment, which is equipped with all the
latest and best type writing machines.
Then there is the penmanship depart
ment, which is a delight to ambitious
penmen for Professor Lee is unsur-
PASSED as penman.
The hours of the school are, forenoons,
3 to IL; afternoons, to 5, and then
there are evening classes from to 10.
The latter are largely patronized by
young men and young ladies occupied
during the day. The scholars in the
day departments are mostly youths in
their teens and the school Is veritable
hive of indefatigab1e industry Private
lessons are also given. The brilliant re-
suits of Professor Lees Socratic method
are attested by glowing eulogies and
testimonials from gratified parents at.
