man system of stenography, which is
recognized as the best and most wide
ly used in the United States. Book.
keeping is also part of the elective
curriculum. The school is in the new
Bank Building in a delightful suite of
rooms, whose superb view of the hills
and river affords a poetic contrast to
the practical necessities of school life.
The high degree of scholarship at
tanned by the pupils of this admirable
institution is attested by requests for
its graduates from many of our ad-
joining towns, where the excellent
work of its students is known.
Throughout the year, as rapidly as
pupils become competent stenogra-
pliers, positions are assigned them
both in Maysville and elsewhere. The
business world offers quicker rewards
than the professional world to the
eagerly ambitious. A good stenogra-
pher or bOokkeeper is always in de-
mand, is well paid and has unusual
opportunities for advancement STEM
Ography offers the same chance to
either men or women, and its study
may begin in Miss Johnson's School at
any age from fifteen years up and at
any time during the year.
The Bookkeeping Department of the
school is ably conducted by Miss Mar
garet r. Brown and Miss Nellie D.
Haffey, both of whom have won for
themselves enviable regulations both
as bookkeepers and teachers. The sys-
TEN taught by them is the one made
famous for so many years by Prof.
Tom O'Leary. 1t is simple, concise
and thorough, and that it is efficient
is attested by the fact that some of
Maysville's leading bookkeepers use it.
Too much cannot be said of the pa
tient, thorough and efficient manner
i'm which they instruct their classes
Maysville is certainly fortunate in
having an opportunity for the business
education of her young men and
women so ably provided by Miss John
son, whose position in the community
is universally recognized as a teacher
Of rare intelligence and force and a
woman whose dignity and integrity
make for the betterment of all who
come within her wise and bencfcent
guidance.
