 uertises quito extensively whose president isn't competent to hear one of our classes in spelling. BE CAREFUL OF THE START AND WHERE YOU START. Don't allow yourself to be hood winked into attending some other school under the claim that it is just as good. Start right-the Monroe Commercial College is the place and September is the time.
