Guilty in unloading beets from the cars
the majority of which have been in the
cars for some time. and are frozen
tightly together, making it almost i'm
possible to remove them without the
use OF giant powder. This lateness in the
delivery of beets is owing to the heavy
rains and then cold spells preventing
the farmers from getting on to the
land to dig them, thus closing the
factory at Blackfoot. and later trans
ferring these beets to the Idaho Falls
plant. AS these 'beets amounted to
something Ike four or five thousand
tons they will extend the run some 10
days into January.

Why Is 1t?

Can you tell why 1t is that Henager's
Business College has more than five
times as many students In attendance
at the present time as 1t had two years
ago, while all other commercial schools
In the city have fewer than they had Mt
this season two years ago? Why is il
that we have enrolled more students In
the past year than any other CONNER
cial school In the State of Utah. Why Is
II that our school has placed more stu
dents In positions in the past twelve
months than all other schools in the
city combined; and, at the same time,
has been unable to fill half of the places
reported to US? Students of other
schools experience moro OF less difficult
ty in securing situations and many of
them never secure profitable employ
ment.
Why is it that over a hundred stu
dents have como to us this year who
had taken part or complete course In
some other school in the city? VIII aer
they nll satisfied now?
