You can do it.
| PREPARE
to teach: prepare for college or busi-
ness. But do not do any of these things
without preparation. 1t doesn't pay.
| Preparation means opportunity. Every
person with trained mind will some
day have an opportunity to use his
knowledge and skill. The saddest spec
tacle is to see opportunity come to him
who is not prepared for 1t.

Yes, of course! There always are.

ATTEND THE LITERARY INsTI-
TUTE AND STATE NORMAL
SCHOOL. AT BLOOMSBURY, PA.
This is the best place to get the nee
essary training. The best place is the
! only right place for you. Cheapness
| should not influence you in the matter
| Quality is what counts. If you have
only $40 to spend on your mental train
| ing, spend it at good school. Ten
dollars at a good school will give you
| more training than $100 at poor
school. Quit when your funds are gone
if you must. but remember that train
ing is the important thing, not time
spent in school, Our charges are low,
considering the advantages offered.
HAS THE BEST FACILITIES.
This school has the best facilities for
training young people. Here is the CEN
trail truth OF the whole matter. This
school has a fine equipment of build
ings, apparatus, laboratories, library
and modern conveniences for students.
Our passenger elevator and the plan of
serving meals by individual order, as in
a first-class hotel, deserve emphasis.
THE FACULTY.
This school spares no expense to
maintain a faculty composed of men
and women of broad scholarship. sue
cessful experience, and established
culture produced by the best colleges,
universities and training schools.
THE GRADUATES.
This school prepares teachers. The
record of the Bloomsbury graduates is
proud one. This probably has more
graduates than any other Normal
school in the state. and it is rare
thing to find among them a poor
teacher. They are found in every state,
and almost in every country on the
globe.
PREPARATION FOR COLLEGE.
The school maintains an excellent
preparatory collegiate department. Col
lege presidents testify to the thorough
ness Of this department. Our boys and
girls in college attract attention be-
cause of their high standing, and seem
to take more than their share of prizes
and honors. They prepare here for all
courses, classical, scientific, technical,
medical, and law.
MUSIC DEPARTMENT.
The school maintains an excellent
music department. This is important
even to those who do not study music.
No person is properly educated who
has not learned to enjoy good music.
The many recitals given by pupils and
teachers. the numerous public occa-
sions when the school orchestra plays,
are all conducive to this end. No charge
is made for class instruction in vocal
music. See catalogue for course. The
college preparatory and music depart
ments are maintained by special pro-
vision of the state charter and have
been in existence since 1866.
ADVANCED STUDIES.
Your education continues at this
school from the point where it ended
elsewhere. High school graduates and
others here do not have to go over
studies again that they have completed
elsewhere. Many of our senior class
will complete solid geometry trigonom-
etry and surveying, About the same
number are studying Cicero and Virgil.
All advanced work is placed on their
diplomas.
