DO YOU NEED A PILOT?

Every young man and young
woman entering the business
world needs a piIot-a knowledge
of bookkeeping. shorthand and
typewriting. or telegraphy. Such
a training is ample capital and a
safe pilot when setting sail on
the tempestuous sea OF business.
Many have embarked without
this knowledge, and as derelicts
have been cast ashore. Secure a
knowledge of the laws and Gus
toms of business, combine 1t
with a knowledge of bookkeep-
ing shorthand and typewriting,
and you will have a safe pilot
that can weather the storms and
and avoid the dangers and whirl-
pools of financial wreck and ruin,
and steer you safely into the
harbor of independence and sue
cess. Hills Business College,
one of the leading business col
lepes of America. has been the
pilot of thousand Of successful
men and women, and it will do
the same for you. It's away
ahead of all others in the South

TO THE HONORABLE SONS OF REST

After two weeks vacation, |

the order. Having a chance to
travel without any expense for
the past two weeks, / made a
tour of South Arkansas and
North Louisiana. | made a
desperate effort to secure a
position to better myself finan-
cially but every body met was
looking for the same thing, and
seeing people from all parts OF
the country, l found that further
search was futile. / found every
branch of business, regardless OF
what it is-farmers. merchants
and every other profession,
paraly zed; mills are running on a
small scale, r. r. Companies re-
ducing their forces and the
travelling men told me it was

largest business | met was the

organization making any strides.
A great many people are asking
what is the cause of the panic,

on the action Of the people in the
future. The panic Is yet IN It's

ganization. When the Arkansas
legislators found that donation
of 200 to each did not meet
the approval of the people, they
extended their time 60 days
longer. we will look after that at
our next election. Brethren,
after considering all the labor,
trades and other unions, | con-
slider we have accomplished equal
to any. Any body that can get
anything out of the Sons of Rest
to speculate on is a honey, and
we have done it according to
Scripture without money or price.

dom of Heaven, but he that do

Again we are commanded not to
be hearers but doors also. Up
