When, Where and How TO Educate the
Youth Are Questions Asked by Many
And Answered by Few
We are sure that the following is
as scientific as can be imagined in
our present state of intelligence:
THE notwithstanding process in
dicates that the teacher and student
should have a personal meeting, their
minds should come in contact.
Three preparations are indespensi-
bic Prepare the lesson; Prepare the
teacher; Prepare the student.
Make proper applications and t.le
desired results will necessarily follow.
The teacher should prepare himself,
next he should, by the use of tact,
skill and ability. prepare the student
to receive the lesson, then the teacher
should scientifically impart knowledge
according to the ability of the student
to receive it. The student should aid
the teacher, by the cultivation of at
t~ention, perception and retention.
1t is a well known fact, experienced
by all teachers, that every teacher is
more or less influenced by, and will
to some extent cater to the whims of
the student; and oftimes the parents
become star actors in this PROPOSE
ton, therefore the teacher is not the
proper party to prepare the lessons
OF course of instruction, hence a third
person is necessarily involved, furth-
ermore, the student will naturally
draw On his imagination and have a
higher opinion of some ideal educator
whom he has never seen. The one who
prepares lessons to be taught and lear
ned should never meet the student il
person, for the reason that knowledge
of the students ability or inability, as
the case may be, would possibly and
even probably influence hin in some
way.
The person h prepares the les
sons Or curriculum should be more
than a mere pedagogue, "a dude tea
cher, a vain writer of theories, nor
should he pc a stranger to practical

an arithmetic that will be criticised
by paper hangers, merchants, mechan
les, contractors, bankers ald Office
men. He should be an educator theo-
retically and practically. Business
men have their rules, and teachers
should teach these rules.
We have selected fifty of the best
educators, as above described, they
reside at OUR headquarters in Nash
vile, Tenn, their business is to con-
out the United States and prepare
suitable text books, to prepare every |
lesson now being used in our colleges, |
to communicate with and advise our
teachers in eaca of our colleges.
We have expert representatives il
are almost sure-every own in
the United States. We have forty col
leges, one in each of the large cities.
These colleges are connected by tele-
graph wires, hence are in instanta-
neous communication. These colleges
are operated by the Draughon Practi-
cal Business College Co., and the
Woolverton Practical Business Col
lege Co. The two are the same in eff
feet, except, the writer was instructed
to, and did, charter the Woolverton
Co. to work the small towns in the
West.
Roswell should, and we sincerely
does. appreciate the fact that
one of these colleges has been estab-
lished here. This college is now IS
months old and has educated one hun
dred and eighty-fve boys and girls.
The enrolment is increasing every
week.
Ole substantial feature is that the
company owns it's own property in
Roswell, which cost, approximately,
IS. 100000 including the equipment.
Our advertising men have been
planning and advertising
for cash, and We got it; but in the
the college can offer easier
terms. We will accept promissory
notes for tuition. Call and see us. We
want your sons and daughters to en-.
ter this college. Make the arrange
ments now n they may attend during
year 1908. If they will study dill
and at the end of school
year if you are not convinced that
they have learned more than they
ever learned in five years in any 9TH
er school We will make no charges
for tuition. A broad statement, it is
true. but we know what we are doing
