Following are extracts from
recent letters from some of
Americas greatest men on the
value of business education. Hon
Champ Clark, speaker of the
House of Representatives, Wash
ington, D. c., says: Since l
have been elected Speaker l have
had it more thoroughly inn
pressed on me than ever before
that thorough business college
training if of exceeding impor-
lance" O. NJ. Dickson, Secre-
tary of War, Washington, d. c.;
"Contemperaneously with taking
my general education, | took a
course in business college and
| found it of value to me, not only
generally, but in the practice of
law" r. b. Glenn, ex-Gover-
nor of North Carolina: Il cheer
fully recommend to everyone a
practical business education for
their children " Walter l..
Fisher, Secretary Department
of Interior, Washington, d. c.:
Colleges giving special instruc-
ton in subjects pertaining to
business life are doing good
work in the preparation of eff
Gent workers in the business
life of the country" j. A. p.
Howe, United States Represen-
tative; To my mind the world
is rapidly outgrowing the old
theory that an education consists
largely in practical lines of study
and is taking up the theories
that education should fit the
student for some line of practical
work in life. " Oswald West,
Governor of Oregon: The mod
ern business school plays large
part in fitting young men and
women for their entrance into
the business world. II. G.
Pickett, Representative from
Iowa: The value, even neces-
sity, of practical education to
young people today is so obvious
that no argument should be re-
quired in support of it." e. Y.
Noel, Governor of Mississippi, l
take pleasure in testifying to
the importance of practical
business education and To the
efficiency Of a properly conducted
business school in imparting
such knowledge" N. b. Has
kell, Ex-Governor Of Oklahoma;
Speaking as one who had no
opportunity for education, |
would simply state that | consid
er practical business education
of the greatest Importance.
John w. Kearn, United States
Senator: Everybody ought by
this time to understand that bust
ness men and business women
need business education on the
same principle that doctor
must have medical education. T"
Joseph M. Carey, Governor of
Wyoming; TOO much cannot
be said in behalf of a good com.
mercial education. | do not be
lieve that such an education can
be too highly commended"
Shouldn't the above evidence
settle the question with you as
to what kind of an education is
needed? Write for catalogue of
Americas largest commercial
school, the one giving the most
extensive course Of study, the
one placing every graduated Of
bookkeeping and shorthand or
telegraphy in a good position
promptly after their course is
finished, the one that enrolls
1900 students annually from
over half the states in the Union,
the school with National repu-
tation, the Tyler Commercial
College, Tyler, Texas. By the
use of the famous Byrne Simpli-
fed Shorthand and Practical
Bookkeeping and our modern
methods we greatly reduce the
time and cost of a course. Be
