Wterin Term Begins January 1, 1912
Under One Management Tween
ty-Nine Years.

The Winter Term in Central Bus
lness College, Sedalia Mo-, will be-
gin January first 1912. Judging
from the large number that have
already made arrangements to be-
gin their studies at the opening of
this term and the immense CORE
spondenee that is pouring in from
all parts of the country, the enroll
ment the first of January will be
the largest in the history of the in
stitution.
Central Business College has been
under one management for twenty
ty-nine years, a marvellous record
and something, so far we know, no
other business school can boast of.
The school is now enjoying the
most successful term in its exist
ence, both in number and attend
ance and character of work accom-
plished. President Robbins is just
ly proud of the record made and of
he thousands of successful students
turned out. Such letters as the one
given below testify as to the thor
, oughneSs of this great institution and
the high esteem in which the school
is held by those who have received
their training within its walls,
Omaha, Neb.
Dear Mr.. Robbins: If we wish to
succeed we must know how to do
something we'll One learns how to
do business in Central Business
College and catches that indefnable
spirit of doing things, and doing
them as they are done in the best
! business houses. This is not
strange when we take into account
that the student is guided by ex-
perienced business men who teach
business, not theory. Central Bust
ness College will assist any student
who does his part, to a good posi-
ton. l was placed in my present
position directly from school by Mr.
Robbins. Inow receive more than
500 per month.

A GREAT INSTITUTION.
Graduates in Demand.

During the past week the Sedalia
Telegraph School, Sedalia, Mo-. has
had to turn down three calls for
men for the telegraph service.
While this appears to be a copdi-
ton that should not exist, the fact
is, calls on us have been so numer-
Gus that our attendance has been
reduced to those students who have
been in school too short a time to
be prepared for a position. Any
doubt as to the demand exceeding
the supply" with us, will be cheer
fully removed if you will accept our
invitation to visit this school and
inspect our files. This is one school
of its kind that can, with safety, alb
solutely guarantee position to its
graduates 1t is also school that
actually prepares its graduates for
filling those positions. Investigate
by writing or calling. School con-
tinues the entire year. Enter any
time with equal advantages.
About 6 o'clock Monday evening
the alarm of fire was sounded and
our volunteer firemen responded
with the city fire engine but the fire
was Tut out before the engine ar
rived on the scene. 1t proved to be
only a flue burning out at ]. R. B.
Kids residence in the northeast
part of town, No damage was done
