FREE SCHOLARSHIP LIN THE SCHOOL OF
 YOUR CHOICE.

The Tyler Commercial College of Tyler, Texas, is positively the only business college in the state which teaches thorough course of practical, modern bookkeeping and business training. Other schools teach theoretical book keeping; some of them call it actual business. but it is not. The commercial room of the Ty- Ter Commercial College is a com munlty of business houses of various kinds, Banks, Wholesale, Commission, Real Estate, Retail, Insurance, etc Each student is engaged in real active business, fearing to do by doing. Every entry made by the student dur ing his entire course is originat. en by an actual sale or purchases: 1t may be grain, it may be gro ceries, dry goods, real estate, or stock in a corporation, but the transaction is really performed, and every paper required in the transaction, whether check, note, draft, receipt, mortgage, deed or what not, is filled out by the student; contracts of part nership are drawn up and agreed upon between the parties form ing the partnership; articles of incorporation are drawn up
 Thru these practical methods the student learns business as well as bookkeeping, they learn how to meet one another face to face and transact business in busi- ness way, instead of copying theortical transactions from a text book, as is done in every other commercial school in the state. It takes more teaching force and better teachers to teach our systems and methods; our teachers are not only teach CTS of bookkeeping, but they must be well informed on busi ness customs. When student learns to do a thing by actually doing it, Ee learns it thoroughly and with our practical face to face buisnes methods we are able to give tEe student thorough course of both bookkeeping and business training in less time than he could possibly get the theory or so.called practical bookkeeping in other schools.
 We will give a free scholarship in the school of your choice to any one finding another school in this state teaching both book keeping and business thru praet- ical business transactions as we do. Similar practical methods are used in teaching Shorthand, Typewriting and Telegraphy We believe in learning to do in the schoolroom that which you must do when going into the business world, and it is this policy that has made the Tyler Commercial College the largest school of the kind in America.
 Write for large catalogue, tell ing how we teach Telegraphy, the Byrne Practical Bookkeep- ing.Business Training, and the famous Byrne Simplified Short. hand. Tyler Commercial Col lege, Tyler. Texas.
