F. Brownberger, is an educationa
 architect of no mean ability. Sh
 treats every pupil as stone in tn
 structure of higher business educa
 tion, the erection of which is her lir
 work. None are to be cast aside a
 impossible; each must be fitted tt the niche nature has designed.
 The large corps of teachers are deep ly imbued with the spirit of hel strong personality and are devoted tC the original method of their leader. A wonderful unity of purpose and harmony of thought pervsdes the school. All are working to a common end-the full development of the bus. iness ability of each young man and woman. boy and girl in the school, and the medication of right prin- ciples of thought and action.
 To enter this school is tantamount to entering the arena of business life, for no pupil need leave it without a position at good salary. The high reputation of the school secures this to them. To be graduate of the Brownberger is deemed by the busi- ness public sufficient assurance of ability to hold position as book keeper or stenographer.
 Too much can hardly be said of the rare beauty of the location of the school. In harmony with the purpose of the thoughtful study and serious preparation for the future, the site of the school is on a gentle rise of ground overlooking the busy city, re- moved from the distracting noise, yet near enough to feel the heart throbs of its pulsing business life. It is shaded by grand palms, surrounded by velvety lawns, flowers and shrubs. Twenty five hundred feet of recrea- tion grounds, including tennis court, for students exercise should be in the sunshine and open air.
 Two large buildings are devoted to the school. The shorthand and office training departments are conducted in a three story building, we'll adapted for the purpose; the other building is used exclusively by the commercial department for bookkeeping, banking, etc.
 It is common to see the pupils l studying under the shade trees or on the wide versndas. Though much | freedom is permitted, the discipline of the school is we'll nigh | perfect. No young man or woman of | questionable habits is permitted to enroll, hence the moral standing of he school is so high that parents may nave the satisfaction of knowing that while they are necessarily separated rom their children, they are under he best inufiences, where the training 'f parents is supplemented by the positive and loving care of cultured, 'efned teachers.
 As illustrative of the force and Iuality of this institution may be mentioned the Interesting fact that lot quite year ago what was then heir only building was almost com 'letely destroyed by fire.
 Nothing dsunted the school conven- d the day following as though noth- lg had happened. Blackboards were { from shade trees, classes Ormed on the lawns, not day was ost to the students, and not a pupil ls Tss absent. The work proceeded just 8 usual out of doors. {, During that summer the commercial apartment was added, three new eachers engaged. Pupils and teach rs walked over piles of burned and CIV lumber all summer; the school oubled in numbers; the large com lercial hall was added, fully equip ed with beautiful bank fixtures, office size roll top desks nd every necessary appointment. Most deservedly has the Brown erger commanded the admiration of Il familiar with its history.
