Moral Surroundings

@Parents when selecting a school Tor
their son or daughter to attend,
or young men and women depending
upon their own judgemer', should
take into careful consideration the
moral surrounding, in which they Will
be placed when attending Sc DOL. Our
largs cities are full Of J )nS and
their accompanies evils me bust
ness colleges loc.5r in u Sc cities
cannot control l.cir sluutLts when
out of school, therefore they are left
to roam the streets at will and get INTO
all kinds of company. The Tyler
Commercial College is located IN the
beautiful and healthful city of Tyler.
Texas, a town of 10000 inhabitants,
with no saloons or the accompanying
evils. Our large crowd of 1900 stud
ents are controlled with perfect ease,
both while in and out OF school. The
school is opened each morning with
exercises that strengthen Uhe moral
character of every studel. within Its
walls. lectures by prominent bust
ness men upon the necessity of truth
fulness and honesty in true business
education; lectures by some OF
America greatest Temperance work
ers; lectures by some of the greatest
platfOrm orators this country
affords. Those morning excuses are
maIe Interesting, inspiring, and
encouraging. They cause our stud
ents body to determine 10 be honest,
to W upright, to be industrious, - o.
ladtes and gentlemen who VII make
desirable citizens. A business e.,.c.,-
ton without the proper moral training
is failure, yet there is not another
business college in the state that
spends live mlnutS on moral training
of it's students. The moral training
given by the Tyler Commercial
College has been indorsed by various
religious bodies, by prominent bust
ness men nd presidents of railroads.;
it is the aim of this institution to see
that every student leaves morally
strengthened as we'll as leaving it
with practical knowledge of Book
keeping, Business Training, Short
hand, Typewriting, and Telegraphy.

the various churches Of this city, or

no more to place your son or daugh-
ter In Americas largest and most
successful business college than it
does in some small, inferior institu-
ton, with all the temptations of the
larger cities.
