is an expert penman, bookkeeper and
stenographer.
The course of instruction in this
school is thorough and complete
as that of any business college in the
state. Everything in the course is en-
inently practical, just what every young
man needs before embarking in busl-
ness. The business course embraces
penmanship, spelling. practical gram.
mar, business correspondence, busi-
ness arithmetic, rapid calculation, com
mercial law, bookkeeping, business
practice and banking. An unlimited
scholarship in this department costs
$40 or pupils may pay a monthly rate
of $3.50.
The shorthand course embraces
shorthand, typewriting mimeograph-
ing, manifolding. spelling, business
correspondence and general Office
practice. Pupils graduating in this de
partment take down dictation in short
hand at the rate OF one hundred words
per minute, and on the typewriter at
the rate of fifty words per minute.
One feature of this that makes II
superior to the other business col
leges of the state is its preparatory
business department. Most business
colleges advertise that any young man
regardless of how defective his educa
tion may be, can enter their school
and secure a thorough business educa
tion in from three to six months. Any
thinking business man knows that thi.
can not be done. Any person who han
grown to manhood and who knows
nothing Of arithmetic and grammar
can not be educated in three months
II is the policy Of this school to pur
such young men in the preparatory
business department, where they viii
be drilled for six months or yea
on arithmetic, grammar, spelling, pen
manship, etc, before being allowed {,
pursue the more advanced work o
the business department.
The graduates of this school ar,
holding lucrative positions in this tow
and many other towns of North Texa
and the Territory. Wherever they &,
they prove themselves capable an,
worthy. In short, the Gainesville Busi
l..
the citizens Of Gainesville may fee
justly proud. No young man or younj
lady Of this section of the state nee,
to so to Dallas, Galveston or Pough
keepsie to get a business education
as long as this school remains unde
its present efficient management

The Swearing Habit.
!. Describe Delhi.

Significant as it 7 was timely and in-5
pressive was the recent protest Of the
Roman~ Catholics of Brooklyn against
blasphemy Twenty thousand members
Of the Holy Name society took part in the
mass meetings in the churches at which
addresses were made by the vicar general
of the Brooklyn diocese and other clergy
men dwelling upon the evil of blasphemy
and the need of a high feeling of rever-
ence for divine things. It is deplorabIe
fact that the silly and vicious practice of
using profane language of the worst sort
on any and all occasions seems to be on
the increase among men OF all ages and
classes. and particularly. among young
boys. It is only necessary to listen for
few moments to the casual conversation
of boys and young men who congregate
on the street corners and other public
places. to be aware OF this. The practice
Is not only silly but vicious and degrading
to the last degree. and parents. religious
leaders and teachers. and all others who
have oversight and guidance Of the young
cannot too strongly reprobate and dis
